Year 5 Home Practice 27th November 2020

Date: 25th Nov 2020 @ 10:18am

Another fantastic week Year 5. In Maths, we have learned how to calculate the area of a shape and solved problems involving area. The children are really enjoying Goth Girl and have written some great sentences using adverbs of possibility. We have also researched stately homes, similar to Ghastly Gorm Hall in our novel. For PE, we took part in a virtual orienteering event with the children completing the tasks in very quick times. In Geography, we learnt about the seas and rivers of the U.K. Mrs Quilliam was very pleased with the French work on time and pronouns. Keep up the good work Year 5.

Year 5 Home Practice Friday 27^th November 2020

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. Write new vocabulary in your reading diary and include comments about the story. Y5 book changing day is Friday. Remember to sign when you have finished a book.

Maths

This week’s challenge on Sumdog is based on the perimeter/area of a shape and times tables practice.

Spelling

The Sumdog spelling challenge is focused on homophones (different from the spelling test words below). If you don’t know what a word means, look it up in a dictionary or ask an adult. Please learn these spellings (more than usual) for next Friday (4.12.20):

We are investigating homophones.
