Year 5- Wednesday 10th February

Buenas dias

Morning task

Maths- 75 minutes

Data is really important.  We have statistics around us all the time, in newspapers,  on tv, on the internet.  But sometimes these numbers don’t really mean anything to us.

Watch this video, which breaks down some interesting statistics about our world population.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNnbO8x4JAY

Which statistic surprised you the most?  Why?

Now have a go at one of these tasks.

Gaining confidence

 

Something to think about  

This graph is quite unusual- it combines a line graph with a bar chart.

 

Challenge yourself

There are thirty children in Class 5. All the first part of the summer term they had been doing a project collecting data about themselves and making all sorts of lists, charts and graphs to present it.

Now it is June and they are going to present all they have done in the project to the whole school. There is double excitement in the classroom that day because it is also one of the children’s birthdays.

June 2006 calendar
Here is some of the work they have done:

 

some of children's work
On what day did Class 5 present their work?
Here are some more charts and posters made by Class 5 for their project.  The pie chart shows the children’s hair colour.

 

height and names

 

hair colour
What information can you find out about the child whose birthday it was on project day?
There are twins in this class. What information can you find out about them?
English- (90 minutes)
Task 1- reread Puck’s speech
Task 2
Now it’s time to write up the ending of our story.
Here is what you should have so far.
  •  Description of Athens
  •  Egeus’ speech
  •  Hermia and Lysander planning to leave Athens
  • Helena deciding to tell Demetrius
  • Description of the forest
  •  Puck and the fairy
  • Titania and Oberon
  •  Helena and Demetrius arguing
  • Oberon’s plot
  •  Puck putting the potion on Lysander
  • Lysander falling in love with Helena

Now we need to add on

  •  Hermia and Helena arguing
  •  Puck putting everyone to sleep
  •  Sorting out the love potion
  •  Duke Theseus finding the lovers and announcing a triple wedding
  • You might also choose to write about Puck’s final speech-  or not.

Remember I want to see your best writing.   I have been really happy with your texts so far-  think about punctuation, vocab,  sentence types, and a mix of direct and reported speech.

Most importantly,  when you’re done,  read through your whole text out loud to check through.

Between 100-150 words should give you enough to write a great ending.

Spanish (30 minutes)
Today we’re going to find out about school in Spain.
Task 1-
Work through the website and try the quiz.
Task 2-
Translate my sentence
Mi asignatura favorita es las ciencias
Task 3-
Do some research about schools in Spain.  What age do children start school?  What is the school day like (start/ end times etc)?  What do children wear to school?

      Excellent work Cody.
      Can you just check question 1 from gaining confidence. You would need to count from the first day on the graph, even if there was no reading.

    Hermia went to look for Lysander deep in the scary, dark forest. She found Lysander and Demetrius fighting over Helena because they now both love her thanks to the love potion. She felt really, really confused.
    “What is going on!?” Hermia shouts. The three turned around and looked at Hermia in shock.
    Helena says, “I don’t know what is going on. I think Lysander is playing a trick on me because now he loves me too, apparently!”
    “Is this true, Lysander?” asks Hermia.
    “Yes, it is true. I am going to challenge Demetrius to a sword fight to see who wins Helena!” Lysander says, pulling a sword out of his belt.
    Hermia and Helena start arguing over the two men. Suddenly, Puck approaches them and asks what is going on. Helena explains what has happened and Puck realises that he put the magic potion on Lysander, accidentally. He apologies to everyone and goes to find Oberon to tell him what happened.
    Oberon arrives with Puck and manages to fix Puck’s problem, quickly.
    Purple sparkles flow around the forest and around the four lovers. Soft whistling sounds fly around the air. Then, whoosh! Everyone was back to normal, including Titania and Bottom.
    A rustling sound is then heard, everyone turns around and sees Duke Theseus. King Oberon explains what happened to the four lovers to him.
    “I announce a triple wedding, back at Athens!” Theseus says and everyone cheers which echoes off the trees.

      Wow Cody, this is great!
      Lots of adjectives and the description of the magic is fabulous.
      Wish- Your text mixes between past and present tense- went, found, felt / now, love, shouts
      Can you sort the tenses out so they all match?
      Once you’re done I’d love to add this to the wow wall.

      Hi Finlay, can you check questions 8 and 9 for me.
      8 will need a subtraction to find the difference between the 2 measurements.
      9 asks for the rainfall for September, October and NOvember, so after finding the measurement for all 3 you will need to add them.

      Great work on the Spanish,
      They do have a long break for siesta- a nap- all the schools and shops close because it is too hot to work.

Hermia and Lysander made a plan to try and leave Athens knowing if Egeus found out he would not be happy. Helena made her final decision that she would tell Demetrius that she would tell to nobody else. Soon, when they made it to this forest it was magical calm and mysterious. Puck and the fairy went into the forest. Helena and Demetrius start to have a fight. Oberon starts to make a devious plot. Puck went into the forest and put the potion on Lysander then when he would wake up he would love Helena. Hermia and Helena start to have a fight. Puck came back and put everyone to sleep.

      Hi Jayden,
      Can you check question 9. IT asks for the rainfall for the months of September, October and November. So you need to find the rainfall for each of these 3 months, and then add them up.

      It looks like you’ve told me the whole story here Jayden. But I only need the ending in 100 -150 words, as you should have already written the rest over the past 5 weeks.

    I figured it out it is on the twenty 1st as the other days are on the weekends as children don’t have to do school on the weekends. And the girl is called Megan she has orange coloured hair and she is inbetween 130 to 145 cm tall last but not least is that she is a girl.

    When Hermia came and saw Lysander loving Helena, she thought this was a trick and turned to Helena and said “Why are you tricking me?”. Helena replied “no this is your trick”. Hermia was about to attack Helena but Demetrius and Lysander wanted to protect her. Then they challenged each other to sword fight to see who could really protect her. Suddenly, Helena said that Hermia was a puppet. Hermia said that “I am small but I can still poke your eyes.” Oberon came and suddenly froze the agument using magic, all 4 athenians were frozen and he saw Puck hiding in the bushes. “Puck!” Oberon said. Puck said “yes master I know I have to fix everything,”. “Yes,” Oberon said and as quickly as he appeared he disappeared. Puck made a fog and seperated the lovers from their quarrel and put them to sleep. He reversed the spell on lysander so he loved Hermia again, but kept the love potion on Demetrius. They woke up from the sounds of Theseuses wedding. Lysander loved Hermia again and Demetrius loved Helena. Theseus came whith egeus. Egeus wants Lysander killed but Demetrius now loves Helena, so Theseus said that “We should all have have a triple wedding”.

    Pucks last speech

    “If we have upset you remember what has happened
    and all will be fixed. If you like the show we
    are now finished if you may clap.
    Even though I may mess things up I am still
    as honest as a raven. Robins will restore amends.
    Good night.”

    In the magical forest Helena was speaking to Lysander and Demetrius ”You both decided to make a fool of me.” Then Hermia appeared and joined the conversation. Lysander told her, that now he loves Helena. Hearing this, Hermia said to Helena ”You stole my loved one!” The girls started arguing and they were no longer friends. Suddenly, Puck and Oberon came to the scene. Oberon was really furious and ordered Puck to lead the lovers through the forest until they fell asleep. He then restore Lysander’s love to Hermia and set things right.
    Next Puck and Oberon went to see what happen to Titania. Seeing her being under the spell, Oberon felt sorry for her and he thought to himself, that it was to cruel to put her under that horrid spell and decided to release her from it. Puck then returned the weaver ( Bottom ) to his normal state. In the end Theseus announced that there should be a triple wedding and everyone was happy.
