Year 5,
This week you have been very busy with your learning. In
English, you have begun writing your own chapters in the style of Ross
MacKenzie and completing prefix and suffix tasks in grammar sessions. In Maths, you have calculated with percentages and been problems
solving across fractions, decimals and percentages. In geography, you have
written letters to family and friends about visiting the coasts of the UK and in science you tested your theories of water resistance by undertaking an experiment. In PSHE, you have now learnt and recalled some very important 1st aid skills.
Next week is shorter because of the Bank Holiday and super
busy as 22 of you have Bikeability too! We will also be continuing our stories
in English and working with percentages before moving onto reflection and
translation in maths. We will also fit in some time for you to practise your Bhangra
dance before the Coronation celebration on Friday.
Half term project – Masters of Maths
This half term, your project is to create a game for your classmates to play which covers areas of maths that we have learnt about in class. This game could be created online, could be a quiz, or could be a board game (or a more creative idea if you have one).
You can focus on one topic or a range of maths which we have covered, such as: place value, addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, shape, nets, fractions, decimals, percentages, area, perimeter, translation and reflection, or angles.
Please ensure that you bring your game to school by Monday 22nd May as we will be playing them sometime that week.
Have a lovely long weekend and I will see you on Tuesday.
Mrs Cresswell
