Hello Year 5/6 parents,
As you are aware we are not in tomorrow, Monday 23rd November. I am just writing to explain what will be happening tomorrow, concerning their work and zoom times.
The children will not be using the packs sent home, there will be individual class lessons with zoom calls to support them. The zoom calls are mandatory and attendance will be taken.
Our first zoom call is at 11:30am and this will cover the English lesson.
Our second zoom call is at 3:00pm and this will cover the Maths lesson.
These are resources to support the lesson. If you do not have access to a printer then you can complete the activities on a piece of paper.
With thanks
Miss Buckley
The sheets above are split into, 1 star, 2 stars and 3 stars.
Using your guided reading groups, complete the following activity:
Red group = 1 star activity
Yellow and Orange group = 2 star activity
Green and Silver group = 3 star activity
Please underline your fronted adverbials, adjectives (expanded noun phrases), relative clauses and subordinate clauses in different colours.
If you can't print any sheets at home, you can complete the work on a lined or blank piece of paper.
Dear Year 5/6,
This is just a recap of what was discussed on the zoom call today regarding the work.
For English this week, the children need to complete the planning and write up of their Newspaper report on the opening of Stonehenge. There is also a reading comprehension that the children can do from Friday's work.
They DO NOT start the information text unit, this is in case the government decide on a circuit breaker during half term.
For Maths, the year 6's need to complete the following worksheets:
The year 5's need to complete these worksheets:
All resources, including the video, are below.
DO NOT continue through the booklet. The multiplication and division (year 5) unit is for the circuit breaker. For the year 6's the following worksheets are for the circuit breaker to.
Topic:
Complete Friday's lesson on the prehistoric settlements (resources are further down the page). Then using the personalised questions complete at least 1 activity for this week. If you completed the prehistoric settlements task on Friday, complete 2 activities from the personalised learning sheet this week.

HOME LEARNING
Maths |
Up until October half term, Year 5/6 will be focusing on the four operations in Maths. The children will need to carry on with one double sided sheet a day from the last one they completed in school.
Year 5: I can add and subtract numbers mentally with increasingly large numbers. I can multiply and divide numbers mentally drawing upon known facts. I can identify multiples and factors, including finding all factor pairs of a number, and common factors of two numbers. I can add and subtract whole numbers with more than 4 digits, including using formal written methods (columnar addition and subtraction). I can use rounding to check answers to calculations and determine, in the context of a problem, levels of accuracy. I can solve addition and subtraction multi-step problems in contexts, deciding which operations and methods to use and why. I can multiply and divide whole numbers and those involving decimals by 10, 100 and 1000. I can multiply numbers up to 4 digits by a one- or two-digit number using a formal written method, including long multiplication for two-digit numbers. I can divide numbers up to 4 digits by a one-digit number using the formal written method of short division and interpret remainders appropriately for the context. I can recognise and use square numbers and cube numbers, and the notation for squared (2) and cubed (3). I can solve problems involving multiplication and division including using their knowledge of factors and multiples, squares and cubes.
Year 6: I can perform mental calculations, including with mixed operations and large numbers I can identify common factors, common multiples and prime numbers I can use their knowledge of the order of operations to carry out calculations involving the 4 operations I can solve addition and subtraction multi-step problems in contexts, deciding which operations and methods to use and why I can multiply multi-digit numbers up to 4 digits by a two-digit whole number using the formal written method of long multiplication I can divide numbers up to 4 digits by a two-digit whole number using the formal written method of long division, and interpret remainders as whole number remainders, fractions, or by rounding, as appropriate for the context I can divide numbers up to 4 digits by a two-digit number using the formal written method of short division where appropriate, interpreting remainders according to the context I can solve problems involving addition, subtraction, multiplication and division I use estimation to check answers to calculations and determine, in the context of a problem, an appropriate degree of accuracy
