Our Week This Week
In Year Five this week, we have been learning about area in maths. It has gotten harder and more challenging every day. Instead of regular shapes, we have been calculating the area of composite shapes. On some of the shapes, Year Five had to calculate the missing sides of the shape first.
For English, we have been learning about poetry. We have been finding out about different poetic devices and at the end of the week we wrote a modelled poem on the four seasons.
In art, we have been preparing to create a galaxy themed piece of art. We have been inspired by Emma Lindstrom’s art work. Throughout the week, we have been learning how to draw a sphere and different art techniques. The sphere was in black and white and went from dark to light depending on where the sun was shining from.
In P.E, we have been learning about health and fitness. We had a little slip to see what we were testing throughout the learning scheme. We calculated how fast we were at running a certain distance, how far we can jump and other P.E skills.
In music, 5EV been learning about jazz music and playing instruments. In both 5AC and 5MH we have been practising a song called Make You Feel My Love by Adele.

Spring Term Home Learning Information for Year Five
This term, the home learning expectations are as follows:
Each
week, there will be either a written or online (TTRs/MyMaths) task set. These
will link to End of Key Stage Expectations for arithmetic or reasoning.
(20 minutes)
Weekly, we will set a grammar and punctuation activity to consolidate our work in class. (20 minutes)
In
school, we have a weekly focus on learning and practising a spelling rule. A list of spellings
to learn that follow the week's rule will be provided. (20 minutes) Class teachers will let their class know the day of the week spelling tests will take place.
Children should read on a daily basis. Renaissance Home Connect enables parents to see information about your child's progress within Accelerated Reader.
Home learning will be set on a Thursday and will be due in the

Christmas is coming!
This has been a very exciting week in Year Five. In maths, we used Number Link boards to help us apply our knowledge of the 1-12 times tables to harder times tables (like the 0.04 times table, or the 7000 time table).
On Wednesday, we had a great time hunting for our Pokémon non-chronological reports in the playground. All our work can be read on our class blogs:
5AC: http://cjs5ac.edublogs.org/
5EV: http://5evwonderwall.home.blog/
5MH: http://5mhmasterwriters.100wc.net/
5SF: http://5sfcjs.edublogs.org/
Some people even managed to get to be a Level Five Pokémon trainer because they found every single one.
We have been working hard to finish our Scratch games, taking some time to try out the Boat Race Tutorial on the Code Club website to help us with our coding. We also explored what life would be like as a mountain climber by creating our own short play or mime about a famous expedition.
On Friday, it was Christmas Decoration Day! It was really good fun talking and writing about Christmas adverts, solving maths puzzles about Santa's stocking and making a range of decorations for the classroom. The best bit was getting to wear our Christmas jumpers and listen to Christmas songs while we worked.
