Sentence matching – Sentence level work is a crucial part of year five skills development. This is one example of worksheets that we feature throughout this level.
Essential Spelling – During key stage two children have to develop a wide vocabulary and excellent spelling skills. Part of that process involves mastering the words specified in the syllabus. These sheets focus specifically on these words. The sheets teach spelling but also use the words to enlarge vocabulary.
Similar words – A wide vocabulary will naturally include a number of synonyms or near synonyms. Children with a good knowledge of synonyms tend to be able to express themselves better when writing. This worksheet is part of a series which develops learning in this area.
Other worksheet examples included as part of year five English courses
Homophones 9 – Throughout year 5 we help children to develop a wider vocabulary which is one of the most difficult learning challenges they will face. Books tend not to deliver this very well
Linking ideas – Use of conjunctions in writing. Helping a child to develop their writing skills requires the development of lots of sub-skills. In this case we look at how to help children use conjunctions better.
Collective nouns – This is always a talking point and children enjoy learning these collective nouns and will use many of them in their writing.
Spelling patterns – Spelling patterns are an essential part of every child’s learning journey- or should be. These year five worksheets ask children to learn the spelling of a group of words which share the same spelling pattern. Subsequently we then test how well words have been learnt using a number of fun tests and ask children to widen their vocabulary by discussing synonyms and antonyms for these words.
Find the mistakes – Lots of children need help when it comes to writing accurately. These worksheets are universally adored by children. They become the teacher and are asked to find the mistakes made by a mythical pupil. Over time these sheets really help children to deliver more accurate work.
Comprehension – Butternut squash soup. Comprehension is included in very part of our year five courses. This worksheet looks at instructions to make soup. Others will be stories or passages about historical events or poems or a piece about a scientific topic like our star system.
Use of apostrophes – Apostrophes are an area of particular focus in year five. Children particularly get confused about possessive apostrophes so we spend a considerable amount of time on this through both introduction and exercise worksheets and through revision worksheets.

What Do Students Learn in Grade 5 Language Arts?
Teachers and parents have been observed to show an increased interest towards the development of language skills of children in fifth grade. There is an increased attention towards fifth grade students with regards to reading, writing, and speaking activities so that they can be proficient with language and develop a full grasp on all the language related activities. This is mainly because language is the foundational stone for whatever academic and other milestones the children aim to achieve in their lives.
An increased focus on improving a student's language arts from an early age is a beneficial trick to making them a better thinker and an excellent learner in future.
Some of the most common skills students learn in fifth grade language arts are as follows:
Reading Skills
Fifth grade students are made to read some of the most famous English literary texts from classical writers as well as the new ones. They are advised to read more than a page a day and to keep on reading as much as they can and from any genre they want to. Most teachers prefer that their students read short stories and novels from a diverse range of genres rather than sticking to just one.
Writing Skills
Students of 5th grade are taught to write in a variety of ways. The most common skills taught under the writing courses to kids include essays, narratives, descriptive stories, letters, applications, and rewriting famous stories they have read before. These activities increase their vocabulary, spelling skills, as well as makes them a better writer in future.
Speaking Skills
Most students who have a good grip on other language related activities show a lack of speaking proficiency. Fifth graders are, therefore, encouraged to do small extempore speeches and read out in front of public so that their verbal language skills are polished.
