Wednesday – Reading

This week for your reading task, we want you to choose your favourite character from the book that you are currently reading. Then, you are going to collect all the quotes from the book that describe that character. Think about how they might act or speak as well as how they look and figure out what in the text has told you this.With all the quotes you have collected, you are going to create a drawing of that character and mind map the quotes that explain the reasoning around the person to back up your image of the character.

You can form your reasoning using these sentences starter:I know he/she has ….. because…..In the text it suggests that …..They are …… because….

Thursday - Writing

Thursday - Art

As we are stuck at home, I have created a unit of Art work that you can do from your window.

The final piece you are going to create over the next few weeks is a collage of different textures that represents what you can see from your window. You can choose to do is as an exact image of what you can see from the window or make it interpretive and show the scene in a more abstract way. However, the series of activities remain the same.

As you will be going outdoors there is a series of things you will need to remember:

1. Practising good hygiene (washing your hands after being outside and keeping hands away from your face)

2. Checking the environment is safe for you to work in (this will involve having an adult check the area is appropriate)

3. Making sure you are in view of an adult and not touching any plants that might be harmful.

This week, you will be collecting a variety of textures from your outdoors area to then see what you can experiment with. Go outdoors with some pencils and a few pieces of paper. Then, find materials that have different textures, for example, bark on a tree, pavements and leaves. What you will need to do is rest the paper on the material and lightly colour over the texture using a pencil. You may need to practise a few times until you are happy with this. The challenge is to find the most interesting textures and compare them.

Thursday – Spelling Test

Spelling Quiz 3 – Year 5 Exception Words

Instructions for the reader:Read the word, then the sentence with the word inserted, then repeat the word. For example:‘Question 1: The word is symbol. The symbol for love is a red heart. The word is symbol’

At the end of the quiz, you can read all the words again so the children can check their answers.

The child only needs to write the spelling word not the whole sentence but they must make sure they do not use capital letters and their handwriting is clear (we encourage them to print during spelling tests).

2) conscience - Your ________________________ is the small voice inside you that tells you what is right and wrong.

Friday - Maths

Welcome to the new format of our weekly arithmetic!

It is multiple choice and you can record your answers in a way that suits your personal style. If you wish to write them on paper or record jottings, that it okay.

It should take approximately 20 minutes. As always, if you finish before then you need to check your workings. If you need a bit of extra time, please mention that when you feedback your score as it won’t get you in trouble, it just shows that we need to work on your speed.

We would then like you to mark your paper and give us your scores so that we can see how well you are progressing.

We are trusting that you tell us the truth about your score as we cannot give you the help you need if you are saying you got them all correct. If you are struggling and ask for help, we will be happy to support you!

Good luck and take your time.
