Some maths resources you may wish to use!

Happy Tuesday everyone  🙂

Today’s daily lesson (21st April) is all about different methods to add and subtract. It will revise the methods we have taught you and may even teach you some new methods. Please also have a go at the practise activities.

If you need some further practise, here are some activities you can have a go at.

Don’t forget to keep practising those times tables too! You all have logins to Times tables rock stars (please let us know if you cannot access) and there are also lots of other online games you can play such as hit the button. Try googling times tables games or also looking on the BBC bitesize website.

Stay safe everyone 🙂

From your Year 5 teachers.

We are really pleased that a growing number of families have received food parcels in the past week. We now know that we will need more donations coming in in order to continue this service to our school community. If you feel you are able to contribute, please drop any donations in the box which will be outside the main school office each day from 8am-3.30pm. Any food and toiletry donations would be gratefully received. Many thanks for your continued support- we know your help with this has made a huge difference to some of our families already.

Monday 20th April

Morning everyone from all of your Year 5 teachers. We hope you have had a fantastic Easter holidays with your families and have enjoyed some of the lovely weather and maybe some chocolate too 🙂

Here are some human body and different keeping active ideas that you might fancy having a go at. Some of the children who were in school last week took part in the emoji hunt and had a great time!

Daily activity journal

Emoji Word Hunt Activity

Fitness circuit cards and recording sheet

Notes and guidance

Skeleton worksheet

Scientific investigation

Tongue twisters

There is also a fantastic new resource on the BBC bitesize website where new lessons are uploaded daily in English, maths and other subjects. These are all sorted into year groups. Please feel free to access other year groups as you wish to depending on your set, interests and ability. We hope this will be a great support to you and your parents with home learning.

Today’s (Monday 20th April) Year 5 Literacy lesson contains a video of Dick and Dom from CBBC reading an extract from George’s marvellous medicine by Roald Dahl. See if you can spot any similes and metaphors as you listen to the story.

Stay safe everyone and we can’t wait to see you all in school soon.

Mrs McEvoy, Mrs Branford, Mrs Holt and Mr Blair

St George’s Day Project

St George’s Day

Thursday 23rd April is St George’s Day. We would love children to create art work, write stories, do some research and make a fact file, make a PowerPoint presentation, etc. You can do whatever you like about St George or how people celebrate St George’s Day and we’d then love to see your work! You can either email work, or a photo of it, to admin@stgeorgesschool.org.uk anytime before next Thursday. We can then celebrate your work on our website and Facebook page. Thank you!
