Tuesday 19th January
Good morning Skylarks 😊
How was your Monday? It was fantastic to see so many of you on our zoom meeting yesterday! Today’s meeting will start at 8.40am again – please see your emails or our class discussion for the meeting link and password.
Please see below for today’s home learning tasks.
Maths
Converting improper fractions to mixed numbers: For your maths lesson today, please see the PowerPoint attached. Just click on the little speaker icon on the PowerPoint page to listen. Today we will be learning how to convert improper fractions to mixed number fractions. This is something we haven’t covered in Year 5 yet so please don’t worry if you find it tricky. Just try your best and ask me if you’re unsure about anything over on our class discussion.
Here is the link for the additional White Rose video mentioned in today’s maths lesson:
If you cannot access the PowerPoint, please view the maths lesson at the following YouTube link:
If you are watching the lesson through the YouTube link, you may need to pause the video at appropriate times to give yourself time to complete the tasks.
Times Tables
This week can you practice your x7 tables. Can you say it forwards and backwards? Can you write out the multiples of this number? Do you know the division facts? Why not use TTRS or hit the button to help you:

Writing
Poster Advertisement: Again, please see the PowerPoint attached. Like the maths, I have recorded the instructions so just click on the audio button to hear what to do. Today, we will be creating our own advertising posters based on the video ‘The Girl and the Robot’.
Here is the link to the Girl and the Robot video that you are asked to watch:

Reading
It would also be super if you could spend 10-15 minutes each day reading your school book that you have taken home or another book you have been enjoying at home.
Remember to continue writing in your reading diary and get an adult to sign in, then we can collect our raffle tickets when we are back in school.
Why not tell me what book you are reading over on our discussion?
Spellings
Have a go at reading, saying in a sentence and spelling words with the suffix -ably. You could make your own spelling doodle and add to it throughout the week. I will add a new word each day and then on Friday we can have a little quiz.
Today’s word: suitably
Previous words: understandably
Story: You will find our story embedded into our Writing PowerPoint – I wonder how our story will end today?
PE
Keeping active is so important for our physical and mental health.
Remember you can take part in our fitness challenge to help you stay active! Don’t forget to log your activity on the record sheet and share photos of yourself taking part in the challenge on Twitter using #2021FitnessChallenge and tag @ValeRoyalSSP.
Here are some great resources you can use at home to stay active:
