Y5 - Home Learning - Wednesday 25th March

Date: 25th Mar 2020 @ 8:19am

Hello our lovely Y5s, it's Miss Wilson here! We are missing those of you who aren't in school at the moment very much but hope you are keeping well and busy (and making the most of this lovely weather!). Every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, myself, Miss Field and Mrs Winters will be updating your work tasks that you might like to complete - there is a wide variety but of course there's lots of other forms of learning to be done! Try and do some work everyday to keep building on the amazing progress you've already made this year, as well as keeping active and helpful at home. 

We can't wait to see you all soon.

Lesson and Learning Objective

Task

Maths

 

Wednesday

To recognise thousandths as decimals

 

Thursday

Rounding decimals (providing it’s been added!)

 

 

 

 

Go on to White Rose Hubs – Year 5 Home Learning (it will come up if you google it!). Scroll down to the needed lesson, this is the point we were up to last week. Watch the video and complete the sheet that accompanies it (we have attached it, and the answers, to this post in case there is a back log).  You could always watch the videos from the Lesson 1 – 4, just to recap on this new topic.

 

White Rose have also been publishing a ‘Problem of the Day’.  We were planning to use them for something else but now is your chance to show someone at home how bar modelling can sometimes help to solve a problem, just try one a day.  The orange coloured problems are aimed at younger children and the blue problems are aimed at older children (UKS2/KS3). 

 

Don’t forget you can log in to your My Maths account for extra maths learning (this login was given out at school –contact the school office if you need a reminder!). You can also use TimesTables Rockstars – though it’s slow in the morning because we think lots of people have the same idea!

 

English

 

LO: To write a persuasive paragraph

Since we didn’t get the chance to write our final persuasive piece, now is your chance to try out your persuasive skills in a paragraph. Choose one of the statements below and decide whether you are ‘for’ or ‘against’ it and write a short paragraph backing up your point. Post this on our class blog (using your parents’ login) so that we can see your passionate argument.

 

  • Children should wear uniform to school
  • All school dinners should be free
  • Every child should attend a sports club every week

 

Remember our features: emotive language, groups of 3, rhetorical questions, exaggeration, criticising the other person’s argument, alliteration, and repetition. How many can you include?

Wider Curriculum

 

LO: To create a collage

Art – in the style of Megan Coyle, complete the collage you started at the end of last week in school of a Sheffield landmark. You should have your picture and piece of artwork and some of you took materials home. Use magazines, newspapers and other forms of paper (if you have access to them!) to create your piece. Put it up when it is complete, though if you would like to send a picture to us via the blog or email, we would love to see it!

 

If you need a reminder of Megan Coyle’s work, then there is a lot on google.
