Year 5 Teaching Resources
Teach Starter has an extensive collection of resources aligned to the National Curriculum for students in Year 5. They have been created and designed for children aged nine and ten years, containing features such as engaging yet accessible layouts, higher-order thinking skills, appealing images and interactive elements designed to enable students to successfully transition into the upper key stage 2.
Teach Starter's Year 5 resources utilise a vast array of resource types and have something for every learning area. There are maths activities, interactive PowerPoints and educational games that extend students' understanding of the number system and develop their ability to solve a wider range of problems, including increasingly complex properties of numbers and arithmetic, Year 5 English worksheets, posters and templates that enhance enjoyment and understanding of language, especially vocabulary, to support their reading and writing, and so much more!
