Monday 15th June Home learning for Stiperstones and Hawkstone

Good morning Everyone,

I hope you had a lovely weekend.

We are starting a new topic for this week on the Olympic Games – as of course they have had to be cancelled this year due to Covid 19.

Maths – Today’s session is about thousandths as decimals. Watch the video tutorial and then complete the activities provided. https://kids.classroomsecrets.co.uk/resource/thousandths-as-decimals-video-tutorial/

https://classroomsecrets.co.uk/thousandths-as-decimals-homework-extension-year-5-decimals-and-percentages/

English – Re watch the video that you watched on Friday – The Present https://www.teachingideas.co.uk/the-present

Why doesn’t the boy want to go outside at the beginning of the story? Discuss your ideas with a partner.
Pause the video at different points (e.g. 0.09, 0.44, 1.05, 2.40 and 3.10) and describe how each character is feeling. How do you know?
What does it mean to be disabled? What types of disabilities are there and how do they affect different people?
Investigate the achievements of disabled people around the world.
Find out about the Paralympics and investigate the achievements of athletes with disabilities.

Science – Some of you have already started your animal life cycles from the pack. If you haven’t you could choose one of the following. Watch the power point first. Lesson Presentation Comparing Life Cycles

Good morning Everyone. Hope you are all well.

This week in maths – we are going to revise decimals as fractions. Watch the video first. https://kids.classroomsecrets.co.uk/resource/decimals-as-fractions-video-tutorial/

Play the interactive game. https://kids.classroomsecrets.co.uk/resource/year-6-decimals-as-fractions-game/

Now try the worksheet! https://classroomsecrets.co.uk/decimals-as-fractions-homework-extension-year-5-decimals-and-percentages/

English – https://www.teachingideas.co.uk/the-present

Pause the video at different points and think of some speech / thought bubbles that you could add to each frame of the animation.
Create a character profile about the boy. How would you describe him? Does your opinion of him change throughout the story?

This afternoon – I would like you to finish your Ocean Projects. Perhaps think how you are going to achieve your Blue Peter Badge. We are making ocean pictures at school with a meaningful slogan. Also finish your science and other learning from this week.

If you want something further to do – research a sea creature and create your own annotated drawing and fact file about it.

Have a great weekend and I will see you later.

Monday 1st June Stiperstones Home Learning

Hi Everyone

Welcome back to home learning. Hope you all had a great holiday. The weather was beautiful so I spent lots of time gardening.

I am going to be back teaching in Stipertsones from Wednesday, so won’t have as much time to get straight back to you like I have been doing.

As a whole school – we are starting a new project on Bubbles as from Wednesday – we will all be working in Bubble zones.

Maths and English will be as normal. However, when Year 6 start on Wednesday, we will all work together on Bubble themes.

Today in maths – we are looking back to some revision on multiplication. Have a careful look at the sheets and follow the instructions carefully.

Today is Science Stiperstones and Hawkstone Year 5 and 6 – Remember that last week, before half term we dissected a flower and labelled it. Some of you matched those labels to the functions of each part of the flower. If you haven’t done this activity yet – it is in the pack. Also look at Ellis’ example on Dojo. Today we are discussing pollination. Look at the star sheet 2 and fill in the blanks and pictures correctly .Activity Sheet Pollination
