Year 5: Home Learning - Week 12

06.07.20

Welcome to week 12 of your home learning from the Year 5 teachers.We enjoyed looking at your work last week and were really impressed with how you

responded to the PDL work about being a good friend. It will be very exciting to see some of your friends next week when Year 5 return to school!

In the meantime, do still keep in touch through messages either via Class Dojo or Purple Mash – we really appreciate knowing how you all are. Please let us know if we can help in

any way. Your class teachers will continue to check in with Class Dojo messages. Many of our teachers

are now in school teaching a ‘bubble’ of children. This might mean that your work will be read by someone from the Year 5 team other than your teacher, but please be assured that

it will still be responded to. We are continuing to make our phone calls home; again this might be from someone else in the Year 5 team other than your class teacher. We thank you for your understanding with

this as we support the children in school as well as the children learning from home.

Daily

● Read for at least 20 minutes daily - independently or with an adult. Remember to make a note of what you are reading/ how much you have read in your Reading Record books.

● Use TT Rockstars and Spelling Shed daily for at least 20 minutes – use your login card to access these every day. We will be updating the assignment on Spelling Shed every Monday so that you can practise different spellings each week. If you want some further challenge with your times tables, here is a link to a self-generating torture square website. At school, we set it to ‘Type 10 by 10’ and ‘Difficulty 2’. Try to beat your score or your time! http://www.maths-starters.co.uk/tables_torture.html

● Choose words from the Y5 spelling list (found in your Reading Record Books) to practise each day (aim for 5 words per week).

Weekly

There continues to be one main activity for English, maths, science and project. There are challenges for each subject should you like to spend more time on any of this week’s topics. There are also some extra learning links for maths if you’d like to spend more time on this subject.There is no need to print the sheets – you can complete the activity or record your answers on some paper and take a photo to send to your teacher, or type it on a word document. Please continue to send in your work to your class teacher, via the Purple mash email.

EnglishLast term, we read The Clockwork Crow as our class text. The story starts as Seren Rhys is given a newspaper parcel by a stranger late at night in a freezing Victorian train station. She has no idea what it contains. She is heading for a new life in the remote country house of Plas-y-Fran. But when she gets there, she does not experience the happy Christmas she had hoped for. Armed with a clockwork crow, a magical snow globe and her courage, Seren sets off on a perilous midnight journey to rescue Tomos and bring happiness back to Plas-y-Fran.1. Read the final chapter of The Clockwork Crow (attached to this

email) which ends the story on Christmas day.As you read, remind yourself of how we leave these three characters at the end of this story: the Crow, Seren and Tomos.

The author, Catherine Fisher, has written a sequel to The Clockwork Crow. The sequel opens by describing a scene in the following autumn.What do you think might happen to the three characters in the sequel? How do you think the author might give us clues in the opening pages that tell us how their lives have moved on?

2. Write the first 2 paragraphs of the sequel. It is set in the autumn at Plas-y-Fran. As you write, think about the following: How you will show the reader that the story has moved on. What clues you might give the reader about how the characters are feeling. What the characters might be doing in the opening scene.

English ChallengeWhat would make a good title for the Sequel? Try writing a short blurb now you have given the book a title.

MathsWe are continuing to revisit some key topics that we have previously covered in Year 5. This week we are revising problem solving with a focus on using drawings and bar models to represent word problems.1. Watch the following video on solving word problems using bar models:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pfvel6TtEY 2. Complete the ‘Football Club Shop’ problem solving sorting activity (both sheets are at

the bottom of this document). Print the activity sheets. If you don’t have a printer, you could just write the word problem number under the correct headings.a) Draw a bar model/ drawing to help you unpick each of the problems. b) Sort the word problems into the most appropriate place in the table.

c) Choose 2 problems from each column: addition, subtraction and multiplication/

division and use the appropriate formal methods to solve the problem (answers are at the bottom of this document). Remember to answer the origonal question in a full sentence – look at the context of the word problem to help you. Here’s a reminder of how to layout your formal methods.Column addition: Column subtraction: Short multiplication:

Long multiplication: Short division:

3. If this is the bar model, what could the problem be?Can you write a problem that could be represented by these 2 bar models? a) b)

This next bar model represents a 2 step word problem (step 1 and step 2 are shown by separate bar models). Can you write a 2-step problem that could be represented by these bar models?

c) Step 1: Step 2:

Maths Challenges1. Here is a bar model to represent three unknown numbers:

2. Two children are discussing this word problem:Some people are on a train. 175 people get on the train at one stop. 128 more people get on at the next stop. There are now 419 people on the train. How many people were on the train at the start of the journey?

Which child do you agree with? Explain your reasoning.

ScienceDid you know, the furthest flight by a paper aircraft is 69.14 metres, achieved by Joe Ayoob, an aircraft designer, on 26 February 2012?

This week we would like you to carry out your own investigation into the force of air resistance against the force of gravity.1. Make your own paper aeroplane using the instructions below.

2. Try flying your plane. Start from the same spot when you throw your plane.a) Measure how far your plane has flown.b) In order to show accurate results, you will need to test it more than once. Throw it 5

times.c) Record your results in a chart or graph.

3. Make an adjustment to your plane. For example you could give the wings another fold up or fold down. You could add a paperclip to the front or back. You could make a cut in one or both wings.

4. Now repeat your flights, throwing the plane 5 times and recording how far it flew.5. Write about the investigation, considering these points:

• Which design travels furthest and why do you think this is? • Why do these designs behave differently to a scrunched-up piece of paper? • How do your paper planes compare with the shapes of real planes you’ve seen? • What do you notice if you make the front of the plane heavier?

Science Challenge

Make your own plane design and see if you can make it travel further than the others.

ProjectPDLWhat does it take to be a good friend?You have probably missed your friends whilst you’ve been away from school.Some of you may feel a little bit anxious about how you will feel when you see your friends again whilst some of you have already seen some friends either remotely or from a distance.

Think about these words below that describe different emotions.

Worried Excited Nervous Angry Proud Sad

Talk about a time when you felt some of these emotions. What caused you to feel this way? How did you respond?

1. Here are some scenarios that might cause you to feel some of these emotions. Next to each scenario, write how you might feel in the moment.

2. Then write how you could respond as a good friend. What might you do? What might you say? Scenario Feeling Response of a good friend

Your friend wins a race at sport’s dayYour friend gets the latest Xbox gameYour friend is the only one who can’t skip in PEYour friend can’t swimYou weren’t invited to a party but your friend wasYour friend got a new puppyYour friend broke their arm

Project ChallengeOur facial expressions tell us a lot about how someone is feeling. Try to show some of the emotions above by your facial expression. You could look in a mirror or you could take a photo of each expression.
