Year 5 Home Learning Monday 18th January 2021
Good morning Year 5, I hope you had a good weekend and a chance to do some of the things you enjoy most. Having a good rest and spending time on your hobbies helps you to be ready for learning new things again. We have got some fun learning ahead of us this week, so remember to work as though you were in school and hopefully, I will be able to see some of your work on Seesaw now.
A big well done to those of you who have managed to post some work on Seesaw already. I really enjoyed looking at your fantastic work. You have been trying so hard at home and I can see you are proud of the work you have done. Thank you to everyone who is helping you with your learning. The most important thing is to do your best and stay positive.
Reading
Please read for at least twenty/thirty minutes every day. Talk about what you have read with an adult. Discuss the story, characters and any new vocabulary you come across. If it is a non-fiction text then look at the contents page, glossary or index and see how it helps you find information.
We can issue books and change books as needed.
Reading Challenge: Draw a picture of your favourite character from your reading book. Write a short description of who they are and what you have learnt about them. Please do this in your Home Learning exercise book with today’s date.
Spelling
This week we are investigating the suffix-ancy. Please learn these spellings for Friday (22.01.21). If you don’t know what a word means ask an adult or look it up in a dictionary. Write them out each day to help you learn them.
infancy pregnancy extravagancy significancy absorbancy
truancy expectancy redundancy vibrancy buoyancy
reluctancy elegancy flamboyancy occupancy accountancy
English
Today you will be writing your description of the magical place that the monkeys found the Cloud Tea.
Use your plan and illustration from the work you did on Friday (15.01.21) to help you write descriptively. Focus on using expanded noun phrases and great vocabulary choices.
Write this on the worksheet below and stick it into your exercise book (it will need trimming down) or write straight into your book.
The date and title are:
