Friday 3rd July – Year 5

Hi Year 5 – it’s Friday!

Here are your tasks for today:

ICTΒ  – Safety at Home

Discuss the following scenario with an adult at home:

English

We have been looking at festivals and celebrations this week. Today, I’d like you to invent your own festival/celebration. It needs to be something that isn’t celebrated at the moment. What things do you think need celebrating? It could be the middle of Winter, the first day of Autumn, the day we had most sunshine last year, the 50th day of the school term – it could be absolutely anything. Think about the things that you enjoy and what you think deserves to be celebrated.

I’d like you to write about the festival or celebration, detailing the following:

  • When will it take place and why?
  • Who will celebrate – is it the whole community or just certain people?
  • How will it be celebrated?
  • What sort of things will people do? How will they behave?
  • Is specific food involved?
  • How long will the celebrations last?
  • How often will it happen? – Once a year, once every two years…

Maths

Today, I’m setting you some revision on decimal numbers followed by some challenges. Here is the decimals task – the answers are at the bottom. Again, tell me how you did.

Friday – Maths answers

It’s challenge Friday – try a few of the following challenges.

Here are the answers to the challenges – no peeking before you attempt them!

      Hi Declan,

      I good idea!

      Don’t forget your capital letters at the beginning of sentences though. Can you spot 2 apostrophes that you missed in your first sentence?

      Hi Declan,

      Which part of the Maths don’t you understand? You need to be specific so that I can help. The decimals work is mostly revision.

    So my festival will be about Covid19 ending and there will be a 1min silence for the people who lost there lives and loved ones. There will be a bonfire with roasted marsh mellows with KFC and other beverages like drinks and pizza .Then there will be a stage for people to tell about the lives of who the people that past away and at the end we will give everyone a piece of a cake and hope that they will have a good day.

      Hi Dan,
      A good idea for a festival! I would definitely come.

      Is your second ‘there’ in the first sentence spelt correctly?

    Good morning Mrs Millard and Mrs Munro.
    ICT
    I would tell my parents and not click on it . It could have a virus and take all my details.

    English.
    The end of covid – 19

    This event will take place once every year. It will remind us that we were stuck inside and remember the 40,000 + people that passed away and the ones that risked their lives looking after them. The whoe of the united kingdoms community will celebrate. The event will be celebrated by clapping, rainbows in our windows and street parties.People will be happy and joyful to be celebrating , that they made it through lockdown. The celebration will be held on the day lockdown is officially over. There will be no specific food as neighbours bring a tray of food to the party . There will be something for everyone. The celebrations will last the day, as there will be bouncy castles and games for everyone.
