Year 5 Home Practice Friday 11th June 2021
A very busy week for Year 5, and we really enjoyed being outside in the lovely sunshine for outdoor learning (pond visit) and PE (Sports Day Practice). We finished our novel, Boy by Roald Dahl and learnt about the old game he used to play called ‘Fives’. I think some of the children would like to learn how to play it! A big well done for working so hard on your spellings, it’s great to see such a massive improvement. In Maths, we worked on percentages, fractions and decimals. The posters in RE about, ‘Being one of God’s people’ were so thoughtful and interesting as were our modern-day Beatitudes. Well done everyone, keep up the excellent work.
Reading
Please read for at least twenty/thirty minutes every evening.
Remember to complete your ‘Reading Journal’ task. At the front of the journal there are activities for you to do using your current book or one you have just finished. Choose an activity, complete it in your journal (best presentation and handwriting!) and colour/highlight the square to show you have done it. Complete one activity per week.
Maths
This week’s challenges on Sumdog are based on percentages, fractions and decimals, and division facts. We will have a division facts test on Friday (18.6.21).

Year 5 Home Practice Friday 21st May 2021
A great week Year 5, made even better with some lovely sunny days. In English, we have written letters about homesickness. Something that Boy (Roald Dahl) experienced at boarding school. The children used the text to say why he was homesick and how he could make it better. We have moved on to addition and subtraction in Maths, using near multiples of 10, 100 and 1000 to add and subtract mentally and did some tricky problem solving. In RE, we made a collage of all the things we learned about the Holy Spirit and transformation. There were some very creative/artistic pieces of work, well done Year 5.
Reading
Please read for at least twenty/thirty minutes every evening. 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, look at the contents page, glossary or index and see how it helps you find more information.
Y5 book changing day is Friday. Although, some children may change books at different times, so always bring your book bag into school every day. Remember to sign when you have finished a book, it makes it much easier to issue new books.

It was lovely to speak to all the parents this week and let them know how hard you have all been working. Keep up the good work Year 5! In Maths, we have been reading timetables, the 24 hour clock and working out time intervals. Also, recapping the properties of 3-D shapes and sorting/problem solving. The book, Boy is such a good read and we have learned so much about boarding schools and life back in the early 1900’s. The children did some lovely work about the fruits of the Holy Spirit and which one they would want to have and why. Their PowerPoints in science were great and really explained what Science is all about and the different types of Sciences like Biology, Physics etc.

Year 5 have had a busy four days this week. Well done for all your hard work and enthusiasm. In Maths, we have moved on to fractions, writing improper fractions as whole numbers and vice versa. We have also found fractions of amounts and looked at time intervals. In English, the children have learnt about autobiographies and biographies. They have thought about events in their own lives, ready to write an autobiography in chronological order and written some great wanted posters for a young Roald Dahl. In French, they carried out a survey, asking other children their opinions of various sports. It was wonderful to plant our wild flowers in the nature area. Fingers crossed they will grow and bloom.

A great week Year 5, you have been working very hard in all subjects. In Maths, we have moved on to coordinates and translations. We have completed our novel Room 13 by Robert Swindells and will move on to our next novel, Boy by Roald Dahl. I know a lot of you are looking forward to that. During outdoor learning, it was lovely to be outside in the sunshine, blossom spotting and our wild flowers are growing very quickly now. In Science, the investigation on bottle flipping was a success and the results and recording were very interesting. The storyboards you designed in RE were great and explained what happened on the road to Emmaus. You also used a lot of quotes from the scripture reading. The after school clubs have been a success, it

What a great start to the Summer Term Year 5! You all look very smart in your summer uniforms and have come back enthusiastic and ready to learn. It was lovely to be outside doing cricket and tennis in the sunshine during our PE lesson. I was impressed with your throwing, catching and racket/bat skills. In English, we are continuing our work on the novel, Room 13 by Robert Swindells and you wrote some creepy descriptions of what you think was inside room 13. The poems for Earth Day were also very good with fantastic vocabulary choices. In Maths, we worked on adding multiples of 10 to 6-digit numbers, partitioning 7-digit numbers and decimals. For Outdoor Learning, we planted some wild flower seeds which will look great on the school grounds when fully grown.

Using social media websites is among the most common activity of today's children and adolescents. Any website that allows social interaction is considered a social media site, including social networking sites such as Facebook, TikTok, Snapchat and Twitter; gaming sites and virtual worlds such as Club Penguin, Second Life, and the Sims; video sites such as YouTube; and blogs. Such sites offer today's youth a portal for entertainment and communication and have grown exponentially in recent years. For this reason, it is important that parents become aware of the nature of social media sites, given that not all of them are healthy environments for children and adolescents. - From the American Academy of Pediatrics

A fantastic week of learning Year 5, you have worked very hard. In Maths, we have continued our work on decimals. The children have been enjoying our new novel, Room 13 by Robert Swindells. It’s not too scary, yet! We have also looked at story structure in preparation for writing spooky, short stories. In Geography, We have learnt about the different geographical features of North America. It was great to hear that some of the children had visited some of these fascinating places, so we had a great discussion in class. The Year 5/6 Athletics Competition went really well and everyone participated to the best of their ability.

In Science, we made rockets out of paper and launched them with straws. We measured how far they flew and thought about the forces at work. Our new topic in Geography is – North America. We have learnt about the countries and the different climates of this interesting continent. We had a great discussion in RE about the ‘cost of giving’ and young carers in society.

Read Alice Spode (documents below). This is another Cautionary Tale. Do you think it is by Hilaire Belloc? Why not? (He died in 1953, long before texting was possible!).
Look at how the poem fits the structure of other Cautionary Tales:
1. A brief description of the foible and hint of consequences;
2. A particular time where the foible causes terrible events to unfold;
3. The reaction of others/the moral stated.
Make annotations on the poem to show these three sections.
Identify other features that make this poem fit the style of Hilaire Belloc. Notice in particular the rhyming couplets and the use of phrases from other Cautionary Tales e.g. ‘chief defect’ and ‘I shall now relate’
Display and read Cautionary Characters (documents below). Can you think about other modern-day characters that could be added to this list?

Today we are going to say whether we like or don’t like food items. Then we’re going to recap how to use articles. In English, articles are ‘a’ or ‘the’ for singular nouns. ‘A’ becomes ‘some’ for plural but ‘the’ is used for singular or plural in English.
A sausage – some sausages.
The jelly - the jellies.
In French, as you know, nouns can be masculine or feminine so there are two words for a and the:
|
Article |
Masculine singular |
Feminine singular |
Plural (masculine and feminine are the same) |
|
A
|
Un (un) |
Une (oon) |
Des (day) = some |
|
The
|
Le (luh) |
La (la) |
Les (lay) |
Download lesson 6 with audio:
http://www.rachelhawkes.com/Resources/Y5_French/Yr5AutumnFr.php
Work through, saying whether you like or don’t like each item. When you get to slide 8, notice whether the food items are masculine (blue background) or feminine (red background). You’ll need this information later. After slide 9, write the date in French and the learning objective in your book:
Can I give my opinion of foods and use the correct form of the definite article (le, la or les)?
Read slide 10 then write out the 3 sentences using the correct form of the definite article ‘the’ : le, la or les. Check you answers and correct them if necessary.
Challenge: Can you write your own sentences saying what you like and don’t like, using these as a model?
Très bon travail! Marci beaucoup. A la semaine prochaine.

Year 5 Home Learning Tuesday 2nd March 2021
Good morning Year 5, I hope you are all doing lots of reading this week and enjoying your books. I love reading so much that I often have a pile of books waiting to be read, just as soon as I finish my current one! A huge well done to Georgina, who also had her story read out by the Mayor of South Ribble! We have some great author's in Year 5! Check out the World Book Day website, there are loads of fun activities and ideas, https://www.worldbookday.com/
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. Draw a picture of one of the settings described in the book. Label everything in the picture using words and phrases that the author used. Please do this in your Home Learning exercise book with today’s date.
Spelling
This week we are investigating the suffix - ibly. Please learn these spellings for a test on Friday (05.03.21) this week, as we will have new spellings when we get back to school on Monday (08.03.21). 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.

We have finished our work on non-fiction and will now do some poetry – Cautionary Verse by Hilaire Belloc.
Read Matilda - Missing Words (documents below). This is the start of the poem and there are words missing. Can you suggest what the missing words might be? Write the start of the poem in your book and fill in the missing words with ones you think will fit. You can check when you read the whole poem next.
Read Matilda – the whole poem (documents below). What sort of poem do you think this is? Is it serious or comic? Why do you think that? What might go on to happen? Answer these questions in your book.
Which vocabulary should you check? (souse, frenzied, score) Find out the meanings of words you are unfamiliar with and get a better understanding of the poem. List new words in your book with a definition (a dictionary will help you here).
Click on the link below, follow the words as you listen to a spoken performance of the poem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSW56PnC-Bg
Think about what makes this an effective performance, e.g. the pace, the careful pronunciation of ‘tiptoe to the telephone’, the increased pace as the fire-brigade arrive, the change in tone for ‘Maltilda’s House is Burning Down’, the use of punctuation and line-breaks.
Practise saying the phrase ‘tiptoe to the telephone’ and try to find other phrases to practise in particular.
Look at the poem - Matilda again and practise reading it aloud just like the example you heard.
Remember the ways to enhance performance, e.g. use of volume, tone, actions and sound effects.
You could annotate the text to help you remember, e.g. underline emphasised words.
Record yourself reading the poem Matilda (performance poetry) and upload it to Seesaw for me to see or perform it for someone at home.
Please read the other poem - Jim by Hilaire Belloc and the information that tells you a bit more about who Hilaire Belloc is (documents below).

Exciting and Additional Science Work
This week something very exciting has happened in the world of Space science.
"Touchdown confirmed" - there is a new robot on Mars!
This video is an animation of how scientists planned the landing, not footage of the real thing, but it gives a really good idea of the successful landing.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzmd7RouGrM&safe=active
Amazing, isn’t it?!
Perseverance’s mission is to look for signs of life on Mars. Scientists have to model their investigations on Earth because obviously they can’t nip to Mars. They form hypotheses (good guesses) based on what they can learn here.
So, they have researched life forms on Earth that live in extreme habitats. They are called extremophiles. There are extremophiles living in Antarctica, in volcanic ash and lava and deep under the sea where there is total darkness. There is also life in Yellowstone park hot springs and in a river called Rio Tinto in Spain which is very acidic.
If life can exist in these extreme environments on Earth, maybe it can also exist on Mars?
Write the date and title:
Wednesday 24th February 2021
Can I research the possibility that there is life on Mars?
Your first job is to research Extremophiles on Earth and write a paragraph explaining what you have found out.
Now use the ESA kids website to research what scientists think about the Possibility of life on Mars.
Use this link to find out about Perseverance and write a paragraph about its mission. Why do you think it is called Perseverance?
https://spaceplace.nasa.gov/mars-2020/en/
Finally, what do you think? Will Perseverance find evidence of life on Mars?
You can use the underlined words/phrases as sub headings.
Well done. Keep an eye on the news for the latest developments 211 million km away!

Qu’est-ce que tu manges? What do you eat?
Je mange … I eat Je bois…..I drink. Du, de la and des all mean some. Du is used for masculine nouns, de la for feminine nouns and des for plural nouns.
Work your way through, repeating all the words. Listen to the song on slide 21 and see if you can understand. Then, write the date in French in your book and the learning objective:
Can I read and understand a French text?

Good morning Year 5, hopefully you have settled back into your Home Learning routines. Have a look at this picture, see if there is anything you could do for someone else today. I am going to pray for my family. Unfortunately, I cannot hug a friend at the moment, but I will save that for a time when I can! Maybe you could choose one to do each day during Lent and colour them as you do it. I will include this in the documents below if you would like to print it out.

Read the opening of ‘A Guide to Using Twitter’ (documents below).
Spot any brackets in the text.
The brackets are used to mark off extra information in a text in a noticeable way (this extra information is called parenthesis).
Look at the PowerPoint – Parenthesis, slides 2 to 6 (documents below). Explore parenthesis and challenge yourselves to decide where brackets should go.
Other punctuation could be used to mark off the extra information: commas or dashes.
Commas are a subtler form of parenthesising and dashes are used in informal writing.
Ask someone at home to play this game with you (it should only take ten minutes). Each player needs a separate game sheet to pass around (documents below – Bracket Game Sheet or copy it onto a sheet of paper).
As in the parlour game Consequences, you take turns to add to the story, with extra information in brackets (there is an example in the documents below – Bracket Game Examples).
At the end of each turn, players fold over the sheet to hide what they have written.
Unfold the sheet when it has been completed and read it out. It will be funny!
Now, write out one of the scenarios in your exercise books, correctly punctuated.
