Final day of the school week YEar 5 and to finish our Numeracy today I'd like for us to look at how we can convert Improper Fractions (where the numerator is BIGGER than the denominator) into Mixed Fractions (a whole number followed by a fraction)

LITERACY

Week 4: Wednesday 3rd February

This story is all about a boy who finds a new world filled with Tree Goblins but did you know that there are lots of different types of goblins in the world?

When you write your story, your character could meet a different type of goblin.

Let’s make a list of the goblins that could be in your story. To help create a goblin I like to use weather, nature or places to help me but you may have your own amazing ideas.

SPELLINGS

Week 4:

This week we are looking at Homophones - where words can sound the same but are spelt differently and have different meanings.

As always Year 5 I'd like you to find the definition of the words and then practise them during the week by writing them out as well as putting them into silly sentences :)

At the end of the week do have someone at home give you a mini spelling test to check your learning.

This weeks words are:

stationary        stationery    

steal                steel

wary               weary

who’s              whose

fate                 fete

I hope you enjoyed the short story yesterday Year 5 - I know we did in Class and were able to put down lots of the things that we liked and disliked about the story.

Science

Week 4: Tuesday 2nd February

In today's Science we are going to look at the different "Gestation Periods" that animals including humans have on our amazing planet earth. 

"Gestation Period" is the length of time that a young animal grows before being born - so for humans this is normally around 9 months but for other animals it can be shorter...or longer! 

Check out the Teaching Powerpoint then try either the Mild or Spicy challenge attached below on the Activity sheet.

Week 4:

Check out the Teaching Powerpoint below about Challenging Stereotyping.

Try each of the activities on the slides Year 5 as it is so important that we make sure we do not stereotype people in our society.

Then once you have completed the Activities try to design a poster that encourages people not to stereotype.  Use drawings and pictures to really promote the view that we should treat all people equal and not make assumptions.
