Week beginning 22nd June

Hello Welbeck,

 

I hope you are all well. 

 

Thank you again for the fantastic pictures of your work that you are sending in to the office. I really enjoy seeing what you have produced and hearing what you have been up to. You are all producing some fantastic work on Purple Mash and I am so proud of how much effort you are putting in. 

 

This week our focus is Art. Over the week you will complete a range of art tasks focusing on different artists and different styles of drawings. I hope you enjoy it as much as you have been enjoying the previous weeks learning.

 

Keep up the fantastic work- I miss you all so much.

 

Take care,

 

Miss Tomlinson 

Art Week Activities

Writing Challenge

Write about what happens. Remember to include all grammar features that we have learnt about in y5 and y6.

In a relaxed way, a little like not having a care in the world. 

 

Can you write five sentences with this word?

Spellings

 

Y5- overthrow, overturn, overslept, overcook, overreact, overestimate, overuse, overpaid, overlook, overbalance.

 

 

Y6- ecstatic, jovial, exultant, elated, delighted, forlorn, dejected, woeful, dismal. 

Reading Challenge

 

Before half term you were all sent your log in details for the website Active Learn. Each child has an account where they can access books at their current book band level. Please use this website to choose a book and read it this week (some texts may be long and therefore will not be expected to be read fully this week).

 

Let me know which book you decided to read. Can you write a book review about it?

 

If you are needing your log in details resent please let me know.

 

White Rose Maths

 

White Rose Hub have created a home learning section which includes 5 maths lessons. The children can watch the 5 minute video explaining the task and then complete the work sheet. They are providing 5 lessons per week which follows the curriculum.

Oak National Academy

 

 

Similar to White Rose Maths, Oak National Academy have designed an online classroom where they are uploading a range of lessons each week tailored towards the year 5 and 6 curriculum. These include 5 English and Maths lessons and a range of foundation subjects including Science, History and Modern Foreign Languages.  This may be a resource that you would like to use at home throughout the next couple of weeks.

Grimm & Co are in the process of launching a range of writing activities for children to take part in during the home learning period. These writing sessions will range from short-burst weekly writing exercises to longer writing projects. They will also be providing activities and step-by-step instructions as well as videos to help the children complete the tasks.  They will be adding different activities each week.

Natural Curriculum

 

This website is aimed at Year 5 children, giving them daily grammar activities to complete based on animals. There is a video for each activity for the children to watch and a range of activities to complete. This may also be a good website for Year 6 children to use to recap on previous learning.

There is also a Home Learning section of the website that is specific for different year groups. Each year group is given an animal of focus and are asked to watch a video before completing a written task.
