WEEK 14 - 13.7.20

English

 

Spellings

 

This week for your spelling test I would like you to have a go at a spelling investigation - you can use a dictionary or the internet for this!

READING

 

Follow this pathway for Mr Cloke's bedtime story:

Curriculum>>Bespoke Curriculum>>English>>Bedtime Stories

 

Children need to read to you/you read to them as regularly as you can. They have all been given books from school with additional reading challenges to complete and work through. Please try and read for at least 20 minutes each day!

 

 

English Task

For the final week of your writing task, we are going to look forward to September - and most importantly, Year 6. The final task this week is a personal reflection booklet where you will have the opportunity to think about goals and dreams, ambitions, worries and things you are looking forward when you take the next step in September. If you are unable to print the booklet, you can work your way through the questions  and task on a separate piece of paper. Good luck!

MATHS

After watching my video above, click on the PowerPoint to follow instructions for the task.  Open and print or edit the Word documents to start the Theme Park task.  You might want to research Theme Park rides and maps to help.

Try and complete TTRockstars daily to build up and maintain your Times Tables knowledge. This is vital to supporting the understanding of sections in the Maths Curriculum.

ARITHMETIC

Science - Force and Motion

 

Following on from a week of theme park designs, I thought it would be a brilliant idea to have a go at understanding how roller coasters work. First of all, watch the BBC Bitesize clip to help you understand how force and motion work together in order to propel a roller coaster around the track. Then have a go at some force and motion experiments! 

ART - Op Art

 

This week for art, linked to your theme parks, we are going to look at Op Art. 

Op art, short for optical art, is a style of visual art that uses optical illusions. Op art works are abstract, with many better known pieces created in black and white. Typically, they give the viewer the impression of movement, hidden images, flashing and vibrating patterns, or of swelling or warping. Have a go at this instructional video - be as creative and colourful as possible!
