Class 5

Homework Class 5 Autumn Term 1 2019

• There is a slight change this year to how we are doing homework. There will be a number of challenges set on your child’s topic web. You can also find these challenges on the homework section of the website.
• They work on a points system, complete as much or as little as you would like, the children who have collected enough points at the end of a half term will receive a certificate.
• We would expect each child to aim for a bronze certificate, however we are not expecting any of the children to complete all of the challenges.
• Every Thursday afternoon there will be an opportunity for the children to share the homework they have done that week. This just makes it easier for me to keep track of who has completed which challenges.
• Bronze Certificate – 50 points
• Silver Certificate – 70 points
• Gold Certificate – 100 points
• I know this is new and may seem a little daunting at first but feedback came from the parents that homework could do with a refresh. So we have developed challenges that children can choose from and hopefully some activities that would be fun to do as a family. If you have any questions my door is always open.

Homework - Spellings, Homework and Reading        6.12.19 to 12.12.19

The children have been working very hard on all their spellings over the last term. At the end of each term we always have a  review of what they have learnt and a larger 20 word spelling test. Could the children, over the next week, look back over all the spellings they have learnt this term ready for a test on Monday 16th December 2019. All the spellings the children need are on the website, but if they have been recieving different spellings this term, I have copies for you if you would like them all again.

A little reminder, it is also the last week for homework this week. If you would like another piece to work on, please come and see myself of Mrs Page and we can get any work the children need. We will also be counting up the 'reading points' at the end of next week, so it is a good chance to get some reads in over the weekend! 

Once again, if you need any help, please come and see me or email/phone the office! 

Many thanks

Maths Homework

This week we would like the children to try working out some very different times tables. Each group have been set a number and we would like them to work out and find all the corresponding numbers from 1 to 12 for this table. For example if they are solving the times table of 32 they would work out 1 x 32 = 32, 2 x 32 = 64,  3 x 32 = 96 etc. The children have been shown the process in class and we would like them to see if they can use the principle of 'I know this, so I will also know ...' 

Group 1

Explore the times tables of 37 and 54

Group 2

Explore the times table of 24. 

Literacy Homework

Could all children please read a chapter of either their reading for pleasure book or their reading book form the library.

Homework – Mr Dennis  – WC 5.4.19 Due in 29-04-19

Topic

Here is the homework for the Easter holidays. We are starting to think about Leavers, and we are going to be putting together their own 'Leavers Book'. Over the holidays, could the children choose a page in their Homework Books, place in the date, title and then answer the four  questions below. It would be great if the children could use the questions as the headings for each section. 

1. All about me (a section where they can tell us about themselves, their hobbies and their ambitions for life)

2. My Favourite moment this year

3. My favourite moment at Bredon Hancock's First School

4. What I will most miss about Bredon Hancock's First School

Each section will need to be completed with a paragraph of information. It would be fantastic, while writing their own paragraphs, if the children can re read what they have written, check their punctuation and include possible relative clauses and parenthesis. 

Maths

The children also have Education City to allow them to practise many of the topics we have covered over the last two terms. I would also like the children to continue to practise all their Times Tables from 2-12 in order to allow them to have quick recall of their facts ready for next term.

Spellings

The children will be having their spelling test during the first week back after Easter. I have included the usual 20 Exception Words spellings that they will need to practise.  

Many thanks and have  a wonderful holiday!

In preparation for our next literacy topic I would like the children to research some very famous people involved in space. You can choose between Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin or Michael Collins. It would be great if the children could find out about the person’s early personal  life, their early career, their later fame and success and also the impact they have had in their field of science or space. If the children can collate some facts about these areas and place them in their Homework Diaries.

This information will be used to create biographies with the children during literacy over the next two weeks. I would hope the children have fun creating an interesting page of information with a selection of single, double and multi clause sentences. Please help the children to check their punctuation and spelling to ensure they do a fantastic piece of work.

Homework 15-02-19 to 28-02-19

Topic 

With the up coming trip to Malvern Outdoor Elements Centre it would be wonderful for the children to complete some domestic challenges this half term holiday! We would like the children to make their own packed lunch for a trip out during their half term break, including a sandwich, and also to make their own bed! This would require them to take a pillow case on and off and also the duvet case on and off. These are both essential skills for them to manage during their time during the Malvern residential. Some photos of their efforts would be brilliant in order to place into their homework books when they are back in school on Monday 25th February 2019. 

Malvern Meeting 

On Monday 25th February 2019 there is the arranged Malvern meeting at 3.15pm in the hall. Present will be a representative from Malvern who will be there to answer any of your questions about the trip. We all hope this will be helpful for you. 

Bikeability

On Friday 1st March 2019 the children (weather permitting) will complete their Bikeability course. This will mean we will need all the bikes back to school and on the large playground on the morning of Friday 1st March 2019. The children will all go out again and take their final assessment with the instructors Robin and Pam. The bikes will then need to be returned home after school on Friday 1st March 2019. 

Spellings and Literacy 

Please could the children log onto their Education City Homework page and practise the 'prefix and suffix' spellings that are placed ready for the children to use. Children can also have a go at the KS2 Year 5 Word List game.    

Maths 

Please could the children log onto their Education City page and practise the 'fractions' games that have been placed on the site. 

Many thanks 

Mr Dennis 

Take Over Day 2019

Please could the children come dressed smartly for their role in school tomorrow. We have talked to the boys about wearing smart clothes, sensible smart shoes, if possible no jeans, and a tie is optional. They will also need to bring a water proof jacket, as usual, to keep them dry on the playground. 

The girls have also been encouraged to come to school smartly ready to be teachers. Sensible shoes are essential and they have a choice of having their hair up or down. It would be a sensible choice to have a bobble in school just in case they do need to tie it back. As usual a water proof coat is essential. 

Sports coaches can come to school in tracksuits and trainers, ready to take their lessons tomorrow. If they would like to wear shorts, it may be an idea to have them on under their tracksuit as the start of the day will be cold. 

We have also talked to the children that they do not need to wait on the playground tomorrow. They can come straight into school ready to go to their class or teacher to begin their work. This may be 5 or 10 minutes earlier than usual, but they need to prepare their lessons! 

Many thanks 

Mr Dennis 

Homework       8.2.19 to 14.2.19

Topic

This week we will be starting to prepare for Take Over Day. The children, over the weekend, need to start thinking about what they would like to do with the children in the roles they have been given. Below are a list of the jobs the children will be doing and some of the activities they will be asked to do: 

Head teachers and Deputy Head teachers -  plan a Collective Worship

Teachers - teach a short lesson about a favourite subject

Teaching Assistants - teach a small mathematics activity to a group of children in their class

ICT Technicians - teach a small group pf children about an APP on the iPad

Sports Coaches - plan a small PE lesson based on their favourite sport

All the children will need to do is come up with an idea and jot some notes down ready for planning their activities on Monday. 

Due to Bikeability we have not been able to test the children on their spellings or times tables, so the homework will remain the same as last weeks. The last three groups did not complete the Bikeability course due to the weather conditions. The team from Bikeability will send us a date when they can come in and work with us again to allow all the children to complete their course. 

Many thanks 

Mr Dennis

Homework       31.1.19 to 7.2.19

We have a huge range of mathematics and literacy games to enjoy, so have some fun this week! 

Maths

Once again the children are exploring their knowledge of times tables and division facts: 

Group 1: please explore the 8 times table and the associated division facts eg 5 x 8 = 40   so   40 ÷ 8 = 5.

Group 2: please explore the 3 and 7 times tables. 

Spellings

As the spellings last week were our Exception words the children have this week to practise them as well. The test will be on Thursday morning.

Homework         11.01.19 to 17.01.19

Topic

This week we are starting of homework with our new Space topic. In the children's homework books I would love them to be able to research a little bit about our own solar system. The focus of this could be about the planets, the sun, the moon, anything that grabs their interest! It can be presented within their homework books in anyway. This could be mind map, facts, a labelled picture, however they would like to present their information. 

Maths 

The children are exploring their times tables and looking at speed of recall and the associated division facts. 

Group 1: please practise the four times table and the associated division facts eg 2 x 4 = 8    so    8 ÷ 4 = 2. 

Group 2: please practise the four and the six times tables.

Spellings 

We are currently looking at Exception words. Could the children please pratise their groups relevant spellings for a test on Thursday 24th January.

Class 5 Homework 30.11.18 to 7.12.18

Topic Homework

Please could the children complete their own Anderson Shelters. We are having a Class 5 Museum at the end of term and would love to have the shelters on display for everyone to see. If you would like to make them out of cake, it would be fantastic, but please only bring these in on the morning of Wednesday 12th December. 

The children also have a comprehension to complete. This is a wonderful chance to work together on developing comprehension answers about a classic text. This children will then stick this into their homework books and we will mark and discuss the answers together as a class. Education City is also available for all children to access and play! 

Spellings

We are not setting any new spellings this week. If you could revise all the spellings the children have done over the term and we will have an end of term test during the week beginning 10th December 2018. All the spellings lists will be in your child's spelling book and I will also place the master lists below. 

Times Tables

Please could the children continue to practise their 9 and 12 times tables. 

Thanks you
