Year 5 – 3rd week – 15th June 2020

June 14, 2020

Hello and welcome back to another exciting week of learning.

I can’t believe it is …

Sports Week - Notts TV News | The heart of Nottingham news ...

 

Throughout the week, please make sure that you cover a range of activities which can be found here:

For each activity, the children have 60 seconds to complete as many reps of the activity as they can. The aim of the week is to beat your personal best. The .pdf documents that explain the activities have Bronze, Silver and Gold targets for you to get to. There is a corresponding section on the tracking sheet to tick off which level/medal you have achieve the Bronze, Silver and Gold.

Furthermore, the tracking sheet also includes extra daily challenges for you to choose from. I can’t believe it, but on Thursday there is an opportunity to dress up as your favourite character whilst practising.

Have fun.

With regards to our learning, during the next weeks, things here will be slightly different as we are partially going back to school and are therefore more limited with our time. You will notice that there are some contents for the next days already, but please stick to the days like we did in the past. Also, in Maths we are going to switch to using the fabulous lessons from the “National Academy“ (Oak), so you simply watch/follow their lessons and complete the tasks set in those lessons.

In Science, due to the fact that we are not in school together, we have decided to move the topic “Animals and Humans“ into the next school year. This is needed, because the topic is connected with PSHE which we need to teach in person, but cannot do at the moment.

Anything else should be “business as usual“.

As the timetable is quite light, please make sure to complete the “Virtual Sportsweek“ challenges on a daily basis.

Enjoy your learning.
