HOME LEARNING
We hope you enjoyed the Easter break as best as you possibly could during this difficult time. Hopefully you took advantage of the glorious weather to exercise outdoors.
Mr Macdonald now has four chickens in his garden and is learning to take care of them. If you would like to help him with this and do some research, he would love to see your ideas. You could adapt the Science work on April 29th to a chicken coop rather than a rabbit hutch if you like. If you are able to do some outdoor gardening this Spring, please do so as it is excellent learning and you might grow something tasty to eat.
Here are the plans for home learning for the next fortnight:
If your child works with Mrs Appleton Jones or Mrs Dyer, a different morning timetable has been made for collection from school or via email. The afternoon learning is the same for everyone.

Spring Term
Happy New Year! Hope you’ve all had a brilliant holiday and are ready and raring to go again. We are really looking forward to this half term and we hope you are too! Spring Term 1 is a very busy one, so here’s what we’ll be up to!
English
As usual, we’ve got lots of exciting activities planned in English. The start of this term, our focus is on writing non-fiction. We will start the year by writing our own epic poem based on The Highwayman by Alfred Noyes. The focus of this poem is about a girl named Bess who falls in love with the notorious Highwayman. The children will be using stanzas and poetic devices to create their own epic poem. #
We will develop our SPAG knowledge through continuing to learn about the various word classes and different spelling patterns, including the Y5/6 word list. We will be focusing on how to apply all our SPAG work into our own writing.
Maths
We will continue to be in mixed groups across Y5 for maths. We will continue to develop our skills in the 4 operations, our understanding of Place Value, Decimals, Percentages and Fractions and Measurement. We will then move onto geometry and look at the properties of different triangles and investigate the angles in a triangle. We will be focusing on the Using and Applying aspect of Maths through Problem Solving Challenges.
Please remember to carry on practicing your times tables up to 12×12.
Aim to be a Times Tables Rockstar this half term if you’re not already!

Science
Our topic this half term is Properties of Materials. In this unit the children will compare and group together everyday materials on the basis of their properties, including their hardness, solubility, transparency, response to magnets and electrical and thermal conductivity. They will have given reasons, based on evidence from comparative and fair tests, for the particular use of everyday materials, including metals, wood and plastic. We will develop our working scientifically skills by be carrying out investigations to test materials to see if they are dissolvable and whether they are good insulators or conductors.
Topic
Our topic for the whole of this term is Grand Designs. We will be learning all about famous landmarks both in Great Britain and around the World! We will then design and build our own 3D structures.
PHSE
We will continue to use Jigsaw in our PSHE sessions and our topic this half term is ‘Dreams and Goals’ we will think about our future aspirations and what we need to do in order to help us achieve these.
Computing – Coding
We will be using a programme called Scratch. The children will be using coding to create their own maze games. We will also be using Powerpoint to present information that we research in our topic lessons. The children will use book creator on the iPads in order to develop eBooks about the wonders of the world.
PE
PE will be on Tuesdays and Thursdays
Our focus this half term will be gymnastics. We will look at different jumps, rolls and ways to travel in order to create our own sequences.
