Welcome to Year 5 - Brazil Class 

Class Teacher: Mr H Ellis

Hi, I'm Mr Ellis, and I am Brazil's class teacher. Alongside our school vision of preparing children for an ever-changing world, I believe it is vitally important that children are taught the knowledge and life skills they will need during their school life and beyond. Therefore, I want to ensure that the classroom is a friendly environment where the children feel a strong sense of belonging and a place where they can openly speak and share their own opinion with confidence. As part of our learning journey, children will be taught to face everyday problems with resilience and strive to achieve excellence in all the exciting topics that we cover during year 5.

Reading is a vital part of our curriculum and provides children with space in which to expand their imagination.

My book recommendations are: 

• Tyger by S F Said
• Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan
• Dragon Mountain by Katie and Kevin Tsang
