Year 5 Home Learning Monday 1st February 2021
Good morning Year 5, I hope you enjoyed ‘Fabulous Friday’ and had a good weekend with your families. Hopefully, you are ready for another week of Home Learning. As I always say, try your best, do what you can and enjoy your learning. Please have a look at the Picture News and Resources 1 and 2 (documents below). It is Children’s Mental Health Week - ‘Express Yourself’. The resources below are a chance to talk and think about challenges and how to succeed. I hope you will find them interesting and you might think of some of your own challenges for now or the future!
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 book 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: Use the book you are reading at the moment. Find any ten words in your book and write them down in alphabetical order. Please do this in your Home Learning exercise book with today’s date.
Spelling
Last week we were investigating the suffix - ence. As we have introduced ‘Fabulous Friday’, Mondays will now be your test and new spellings day. Please ask someone at home to test you on these spellings. Remember to put a mark out of fifteen.
patience intelligence consequence influence evidence
essence reference audience circumference excellence
sequence silence obedience absence commence
This week we are investigating the suffix- ent. Please learn these spellings for Monday (08.02.21). If you don’t know what a word means, ask an adult or look it up in a dictionary. To help you learn them, write them down each day in your exercise book with the date. You could focus on your handwriting at the same time.
patient obedient turbulent different incompetent
absent innocent excellent evident complacent
intelligent confident magnificent emergent lenient
English
Today, you will be planning your faraway story on the Storyboard Planning Worksheet (documents below). Write about each part of your story and draw a picture to go with it. Trim the worksheet down and stick it into your exercise book or write straight into your book.
The date and title are:
Monday 1st February 2021
Can I plan my faraway story?
Remember to use your setting picture and notes that you worked on last week. This will also help when you come to write your story tomorrow.
Have a look at the video clip on Seesaw – Storyboard Planning Ideas. I will show you what you need to do and give you some ideas for planning your story.
You will also find those ideas in the documents below – Storyboard Planning Ideas/Storyboard Planning Miss Gravili.
Please post this on Seesaw for me to see.

Problem Solving Extension (optional):
Flash Harry
In April Flash Harry bought a saddle for £100.
In May he sold it for £200.
In June he was sorry he had sold it.
So, he bought it back for £300.
In July he got tired of it.
So, he sold it for £400.
Overall, did Flash Harry make or lose money?
How much did he make or lose?
Focus:
Solve mathematical problems or puzzles.
Use negative numbers.
Age old problems – Answers:
1. I am 48 years old (or possibly 104).

time, when I am 64, my age will be both
a square number and a cube.
