Year 5 Home Learning Tuesday 12th January 2021
Good morning Year 5. I hope you had a good day yesterday and you are ready, enthusiastic and excited about your learning today. I know you will be trying your best and working hard, just like you would at school. A big well done to everyone and keep up the positive attitude.
I have had a couple of calls about the answers for the maths work set each day. I will attach the answers in the documents below the following day. However, today I will do last week’s answers, so you can catch up. Hope this helps and let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.
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. We can issue books and change books as needed.
Reading Challenge: Give the book you have read marks out of ten and explain why you gave it that mark. Please do this in your Home Learning exercise book (collect from school) with today’s date.
Spelling
This week we are investigating the suffix-ant. Please learn these spellings for Friday (15.01.21). If you don’t know what a word means ask an adult or look it up in a dictionary. On Friday, ask someone to test you on the words below in your exercise book, remember the date.
elephant mutant hydrant hesitant consultant
remnant tenant dominant attendant immigrant
pennant tyrant expectant occupant informant
English
Re-read some of Cloud Tea Monkeys by Mal Peet and Elspeth Graham to remind yourself of the story.
Read through the PowerPoint in the documents below- Expanded Noun Phrases (slides 1-8). This will help you learn how noun phrases are built around a head noun.
Print out the Noun Phrase Worksheet below and stick it into your exercise book or copy the answers into your book. You need to underline the head noun and put a circle around the noun phrase. Then write some of your own noun phrases. I will post the answers on tomorrow’s blog. The date and title are:
Tuesday 12th January 2021
Can I identify head nouns, expanded noun phrases and write my own expanded noun phrases?
