Here are the Knowledge Organisers for Year 5! 🤩 These special sheets are like a map 🗺️ of all the important things your child will be learning in each subject this term. They show the key facts, words, and ideas they need to know.

How to Use Knowledge Organisers at Home 🏡

Knowledge Organisers are a powerful tool to help your child truly embed and recall what they've learned. Here are some effective strategies you can use together:

• Deep Dive Discussions! Encourage your child to explain complex concepts from the organiser in their own words. Ask follow-up questions like "Why do you think that?" or "Can you give an example?" to deepen their understanding.

• Create Revision Cards! Help your child transform the key information into their own revision cards. They can include definitions, diagrams, and examples on each card. This active process boosts memory.

• "Teach the Family" Session! Let your child take the lead and "teach" a section of the Knowledge Organiser to you or other family members. Explaining something clearly to others is one of the best ways to solidify their own learning. 👨‍🏫

• Mind Mapping Masterpiece! Work with your child to create detailed mind maps for entire topics, using the Knowledge Organiser as their guide. Encourage them to add colours, symbols, and extra notes.

• Predict and Connect! Before starting a new topic, ask your child to predict what they might learn based on the title or a few keywords from the organiser. Afterwards, challenge them to connect new learning to prior knowledge.

Consistently engaging with these organisers will not only help your child remember important facts but also develop vital independent learning and study skills that will benefit them throughout their academic journey!
