Art & Geography

As an introduction to our Rivers and Water topic, we would like you to create a piece of artwork. It could be a picture of a river, waterfall, puddle, droplet or lake. You can choose how to create your artwork. Here are some ideas that you could use: pencil sketch, paint, pencil crayon and felt tip, use a computer or make a collage. You could take photographs of water in your local area when you are out for a walk, too.

Maths tasks for week beginning 27th April

Hi everyone,

Here are some maths activities to have a go at throughout the week.

Multiplication and Division Learning from Home – Workbook – Booklet

Multiplication and Division Learning from Home – Answer Book – Boolket

For the long division, remember the turtle head method we learnt in Set 3 to help you. Below is a link to a youtube video which clearly explains this method.

Something else lots of you have found trick is multiplying and dividing by 10,100 and 1000. The PPT below will show you how to do this easily by moving the numbers in their place value columns. Have a little look at the PPT if you’re unsure.

Multiplying and dividing by 10 100 1000

Remember you can also access BBC bitesize daily maths lessons as well as the daily challenge through the White rose maths party (see previous post on website for link to this). You also all have logins to TTRS so keep on practising those times tables, they are so important!

Enjoy everyone 🙂

Your Year 5 teachers.

Heroes Art Project

Miss Mogg has set you all a task to create a piece of art work based on the title ‘Heroes’. You can make anything you like and then send in a photo of your finished masterpieces to admin@stgeorgesschool.org.uk by Wednesday 29th April. Only artwork emailed in will be included in the finished film we will put together- anything shared directly on Facebook will be celebrated but won’t be added to the film.

We can’t wait to see what you create! Here is a photo of Miss Mogg’s Hero art.

Facebook Live Session – Friday 24th April

https://www.facebook.com/StGeorgesPrimaryTelford/live/

We would like to invite families to join us for a live quiz tomorrow at 10am hosted by Mr Porteous.

PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL CHILDREN MUST BE SUPERVISED BY AN ADULT THROUGHOUT THE QUIZ! No children should have their own Facebook account or be accessing our school’s page unsupervised!

All you will need to participate is plain paper and something to write with.

Dress Code: we would like all participants to be dressed in their smartest clothes. We would love parents/guardians to send in photos of families dressed in their finest, as we will be awarding prizes for the best dressed participants. Prizes will be awarded at a later date.

There will be no prizes for answering the most questions correctly, as one of the aims of the quiz is to make parents/guardians aware of some of the key facts which the children could be learning at home.

There will be a range of questions suitable for children of all ages. The questions which the children are unable to answer themselves will obviously need some support from adults.

Overall we hope to have a fun time and raise everyone’s spirits. However, we also hope that parents/guardians will quickly become aware of what general knowledge questions their children can practise at home and research following the quiz in future weeks.

We also hope to have members of our staff participating in the quiz, as we want our school’s community to have a positive memory to look back on in future years.

See you tomorrow – dressed in your finest

Bonjour Phase 2

A little French challenge for you try, if you fancy.

How you answer the questions is up to you, you can be as creative and imaginative as you wish.

I know and you know, how you love to make your French books “tres beau.”

So go for it, I can’t wait to see what you do.

  1. How tall is the Eiffel Tower?
  2. Who is the President?
  3. When did “La Tour de France” begin?
  4. What is the river that runs through Paris?
  5. How many countries border France? Can you name them?
  6. Can you write nine hundred and ninety-nine in French words?
  7. Can you draw the French flag and what is it called and why?
  8. Name 6 or more colours.
  9. Can you write a few sentences about yourself? Name, age, where you live, how you are feeling, what you look like, what pets you have?
  10. Can you draw a famous landmark in PARIS and give 3 astonishing facts about it?

I really can’t wait to see what you can all do.

Merci bien et rester en securite.  Thank you and stay safe.

Madame Sohier
