WB 10.10.22

Date: 6th Oct 2022 @ 4:32pm

Hello everyone and welcome to Skylarks weekly blog! ?

What a super week we have had again. The children have worked very hard and produced some super work.

 

Next week (W.B. 10.10.22)

In our English lessons next week, we will finish reading our book ‘Queen of the Falls’. We will create a timeline of the story to help us summarise the main events, before planning our own sequence of dairy entries from the viewpoint of Annie Edson Taylor.

In our shared reading lessons, we will be reading about the inspirational women in our text ‘Goodnight Stories for Rebel Girls’. We will continue to focus on drawing inferences and justifying our answers with evidence.

In maths we will continue to focus on the place value of numbers and will be working on reading and writing Roman Numerals to 1000. We will also continue to consolidate our knowledge of the four operations through daily 4-a-day activities.

In science we will be using our plans from last week to carry out our experiment to answer the question: Which container will help to keep my lunch the coldest? We will then look at the different ways we can present our findings.

In RE we will hold a class debate to answer the question: Do you think Jesus’ teachings from the Sermon on the Mount are still important today?

During our topic day we will continue to look at our Year 5 theme of ‘Identity’. We will be looking at what put Northwich on the map, focusing on the salt industry.

Our PE days for the first Autumn term will be Thursday (Cricket) and Friday with Mr Ault so your child should come to school in their PE kit on these days. Please remember PE kits should either be school kits or plain black/blue.

 

Homework

In year 5 the children will be set a weekly maths homework that they should complete and mark at home using the answers in the back of the homework book.

If your child is finding the homework tricky, please do let Mr Beswick or myself know so that we can offer them support in school. 

The children should complete page 10 of their maths book to be returned by Friday 14th October. This homework is looking at rounding.

 

Please also encourage your child to read for 20 minutes each evening and practice their spellings/times tables. The following websites are both great for times tables practice:

https://ttrockstars.com/

https://www.topmarks.co.uk/maths-games/hit-the-button

 

Our spellings for the quiz on Friday 14th October will be words containing the -ible suffix:

possible, terrible, legible, horrible, sensible, reversible, credible, visible

 

Please remember that if you have any questions or queries, do not hesitate to get in contact ?
