Dear parents/carers,

We hope that you have all had a lovely half term break and that you have enjoyed the lovely

weather that we have had.

As we have previously suggested, try to keep your child’s day as structured as possible whilst they

are not at school. Below is a suggested timetable to support you with this structure and also to

support you in helping your child with their home learning.

Please do send any work that you complete at home to [email protected] so

that work can be celebrated, feedback and support given where you need it. Please enter BLAKE into

the subject of the email with your child’s name so that we can sort and feedback as quickly as

possible.

As always, please do not hesitate to get in touch with any questions or concerns.

Activity 5 and 6 : (1-3.15pm) Topic – Geography

Break 3: (2-2.15pm)

This term in topic we are learning Geography, and in particular rivers and global warming.

Today we are going to start this topic learning bit more about rivers and seas of the United Kingdom.

Rivers usually begin in hills and mountains, often rising out of the ground in a spring. Rivers grow

larger as they flow downhill and are joined by tributaries. Further downstream there may be lakes,

waterfalls and gorges. Eventually the rivers flow into and estuary join the sea. They will usually have

towns on the way. What rivers do you already know?

Glossary

Tributary – A stream or river that flows into a larger stream or river.

Gorge – A narrow valley between hills and mountains, usually with steep rocky walls and a stream

running through it.

Here are some pictures that show a river starting in hills or mountains.

If you look at the picture on the left and in particular some of the features of a river. The head of a

river is the source or where it starts. A tributary is a stream or river that flows into the main river.

A meander is a curve in the river.

A delta is a wide muddy or sandy area where the river meets the sea.

Do you recognise this part of a river from a TV programme?

This is the River Thames and is features on the opening of East Enders. The River Thames is the

longest and most famous river in England.

Do you know where the River Thames starts from?

Do you know where the River Thames flows to?

Today we are going to find out a bit more about some United Kingdom (UK) rivers. We would like

you to research some UK rivers and to complete the table below.

Name of the River

The hills/mountains or the name of the place where it starts

Where does the river flow to?

Major towns that it passes through?

River Thames

River Severn

River Trent

Can you find out another UK river? You could choose a local river.

If you wish to and have time to, you can find out about other rivers in the United Kingdom.

How did you get on with this activity?

Year 5 Wednesday – 3.6.20




Lesson 3 White Rose Maths. Please watch the video tutorial.

Multiply mixed numbers by an integer https://vimeo.com/420244296

Break 1: (10.30-10.50)




We are continuing with our writing on The Game. Throughout the writing we using the ideas from

The Game to help us to generate new ideas. This is called innovating the story.

Activity 5: (1-2pm) Global Warming

We are going to be learning more about global warming over the coming weeks.

What do we know already about global warming?

Write down some of your ideas. We will look at global warming over the coming

weeks but we want you to start thinking about what you may already know.

What do I already know on global warming?

Here are some discussion questions (ignore the numbers on the cards) on global warming. What are

your ideas on these statements? Do you agree or disagree? Try to think of reasons to support your

thoughts and keep a record of these because we will need these as learn more.

Break 3: (2-2.15pm)

Activity 6: (2.15-3.15) Art

In art we are going to learn about the paintings of an artist called Claude Monet. This lesson we will

learn about some of the techniques that Monet used in his art.

Monet was inspired by rivers and he painted many pictures of the River Thames. Let’s have a close

look at the way he has painted the water.

Can you have a try at creating your own water effect in the style of Claude Monet? Below are some

photos that may help you. You could use coloured pencils or an ordinary pencil making different

marks on the paper and maybe shading. The first picture is especially well suited to using an ordinary

pencil.

Break 1: (10.30-10.50)




Today we are bringing together your ideas. Remember that you can always add to ideas that you

have written earlier on in the week either when you are planning today or tomorrow when you write

up your story. When you see MC in the boxes below this refers to our main character(s).

Activity 5: (1-2pm) Topic Geography

Today in topic I would like you to research UK seas and river. We have learnt that rivers flow into

seas so it is important for you to know where the seas are around the United Kingdom.

Here are a list of rivers and seas which I would like you to find out where these rivers are and to

complete the table. Below the table there is a map that you can complete. The first letter of the sea

is given to you.

Lesson 5 Using fractions as operators https://vimeo.com/420244575


Break 1: (10.30-10.50)




Today in our English lesson you are to use all the ideas from this week’s lessons and are bringing

them together to create your own story. Whilst you are writing your story remember we are

following the story structure of The Game. When you have finished your story remember to check it

for punctuation and spelling. You could use a dictionary to help you with this. We look forward to

reading your story.

You will remember that earlier in the week we saw how you could create your own book. If you

wanted to, you could write up your finished story into this book

Activity 5 and Activity 6: PHSE. Today in PHSE we are looking at how you can start to develop a

positive mindset. A mindset is the way we see or view situations. For example, we have all been in

lockdown now for many weeks, we could have looked at this time with a positive mindset or a

negative mindset. If we have a positive mindset we would think about all the things that we could do

at this time eg. Start a new hobby learning how to draw. If we have a negative mindset we will think

only about the things that we can’t do at this time.
