Year 5 Home Learning Tuesday 2nd February 2021
Good morning Year 5, I hope you are all well and feeling positive and happy this week. I have included some nice activities to go with our ‘Express Yourself’ theme (documents below – Monday and Tuesday). They are to get you thinking constructively and should be fun and not take too long. Hopefully you will enjoy them, you might want to post these on Seesaw for me to see. Thank you again for all the other amazing work you are posting on Seesaw. What a fantastic class I have, I’m a very lucky teacher! Keep working hard and trying your best.
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, or one you have just read. Make a timeline of the important parts of the story. Please do this in your Home Learning exercise book with today’s date.
Spelling
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, I would like you to write the first three paragraphs of your faraway story in your exercise book. We will write the last three paragraphs tomorrow.
Think about the two stories we have just read; ‘Cloud Tea Monkeys’ and ‘Mysterious Traveller’ and write your story in a similar way. Use imagery if you can and lots of description.
To do this, use the first three boxes of your storyboard planning sheet from yesterday. This is the structure of your story so keep to your plan, it really helps when writing.
You will write your introduction paragraph and two build-up paragraphs.
- Introduction
- Build-up
- Build-up
- Problem
- Resolution
- Conclusion
Focus: Use adjectives, similes and sentences with relative clauses.
The date and title are:
Tuesday 2nd February 2021
Can I write a faraway story?
Then write the name of your story - you chose this yesterday on your plan.
Please post this on Seesaw for me to see.
