Book Review 😊

We hope that you are all keeping up with your reading and enjoying lots of different books!

Remember, you could be reading many different text types, both onscreen or paper copies. Why not try reading a selection of texts such as: newspaper articles, recipes, instructions, fact books, poems, stories, biographies/ autobiographies?

This week, we would like you to write a book review. It could be about a book that you have just read, or it could be about one of your all time favourite books – from any time in your life!

Here is an example of what you could include:

We have loved the examples of work that have been emailed to us so far 😊

You can send your work to year5team@stgeorgesschool.org.uk

Have fun! 😊😊😊

Science and Geography

Hi Year 5,

It’s been a while since we studied Earth and Space in Science. I wonder how much you can remember? Have a look at the task below to find out!

Science Earth and Space

This Geography task will help you learn about time zones. It can be quite tricky to understand, so send your work in to the Year 5 email when you complete it. We’re waiting to be impressed!

Can you help to plan your family holiday?

Hi everyone 🙂

We have a little challenge for you all this week to do a little bit of problem solving and plan your own family holiday. We use maths all the time in our day to day lives and it is very important to learn the important skills of budgeting so you have everything you need.

So here is what you need to do.

Your challenge is to ‘book’ a holiday for 2 adults and 2 children to anywhere you wish to go during the summer holidays.

You will need to record the name of destination, name & cost of hotel/accommodation, flight cost & details (airline, times & flight numbers).

You must think about the following criteria and stay within your budget.

Your budget is £2500 for flights, accommodation & food.

Criteria:

  • 2 adults and 2 children (below the age of 12), so you will need a family room.
  • 7 nights
  • Transfers (getting to and from the airport to your accommodation).
  • Baggage (2 suitcases for your family)
  • Consider food and spending money in your budget too.

Below are some holiday companies websites to get you started.

Holiday companies

  • TUI
  • Thomas Cook
  • Jet2
  • On the beach
  • Travelsupermarket

Have lots of fun Year 5, we hope you enjoy ‘booking’ your own holiday! (Please don’t really book, this is a fun activity to give you some practise at real life budgeting!)
