JUST A REMINDER – HOMEWORK!

Over the last couple of weeks we have shared lots of activities for you to carry out. These also include some exciting projects!

I will recap them below in case you have missed any that might interest you.

Science fortnight project. In Year 5, your task is to research the inventor Alexander Graham Bell and carry out some associated experiments. There is also the whole school ‘Spinners’ activity you can take part in.
Artist in a box whole school project. Your task is to create a box showcasing the artist Monet. The competition deadline is Friday 10th July.
Sports activities from last weeks ‘Virtual sports week’ are all saved on the website too in case you didn’t get chance to complete them all.
Our new project to research in Science is Living things and David Attenborough. We would love to see as many of your projects as possible! These need to be sent to the Year 5 email by 1pm on Friday 10th July.
Each week there is also lots of Literacy and Numeracy activities posted. Please keep an eye out for these too as it is really important we keep these fundamental skills going.

Please get in touch if you need any help, advice or support. You can contact us on the year 5 email or by phoning school.
