Good afternoon Year 5,
I have been really impressed by your approach towards your learning this
week. You have now unpicked and planned an Ancient Greek myth and I am very
excited to read your writing once it has begun. In Maths, you have secured long
multiplication and begun to apply it to problems and in Science you discussed the
thermal insulator and conductor properties of materials before planning and
undertaking an experiment. You also recorded and concluded your results. Our
History topic has continued and you have become warriors and understood how
they organised their warfare.
Next week, you will finish your plans and begin writing your myths by
looking at the setting and introducing your main character. In Maths, we will be
looking at written division and applying this to problems. In History, we will begin
looking at the daily lives of the Ancient Greeks. In computing we will populate
a spreadsheet with your data from today and use this to create graphs, and in RE
we will learn about Hanukkah. Next Friday is a Mufty day with you being asked
to bring in donations for the PTA hampers (please ask your adults to check the
letter and newsletter for more details).
Reminders:
Your project has been set and is on the blog below
-
Wednesday is swimming
- Reading
– You have now been given your Reading Journals and shown how to write in them.
Please ensure that you read and record it at least 5 times a week. You can do
the recording; it does not have to be your adult. You must complete a Reading
Journal Activity before changing your book and if you are not enjoying your
book you must read at least 40 pages and write why you have not been enjoying
it in your journal.
- Spellings
– You will have your next pre-test on Monday and are asked to practise these
throughout the week ready for the test on Friday (they will be on the blog).
Remember I am looking for improvement.
- Sumdog/Times Tables Rockstars- Please remember to use these to practise your maths. Your passwords are stuck in the back of your Reading Journal.
I hope you have a lovely (if rather chilly) weekend.
Miss H Huntley J
