El Dorado-everyone can be involved.
Do you have a child who loves film and writing? We have an exciting 7 week programme for you to follow together. This originally started live online in April but is now available in full and will give super writing and filming opportunities for the whole of this half term. If your child is less enthusiastic about writing he/she can still create their adventure-an adult can write down what they want to say for them or they can discuss their ideas verbally and there is the filming part too.
The links will take you to the book to download, the lessons and resources-which are attractively presented. #LitFilmFestClassrooms_ How to Write and Film An Adventure – El Dorado (2)

English has many parts to it, not all of them involve writing. Please see the suggestions for providing learning opportunities that cover the range of English skills we work on in school. It is not a list of things you must do but just an idea of the range of skills and possible activities-you can mix and match. Go with your child’s interests and encourage him/her to have a go. Some parts of English can be a tricky but can be practical and fun too. How to give your child English learning opportunities at home

Learn the positions and names of the planets in the solar system (can you do a better song or poem/rap?) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQrlgH97v94
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zL-KAqA6m-c Get an overview of what we will learn -here.
Space Art-Use these pictures of galaxies to create your own using pointilism (pointilism is a painting technique developed by the artist George Seurat. It involves using small, painted dots to create areas of color that together form a pattern or picture).
Here are examples created in school. 
Reading Rocks
As well as completting the quizes in your Reading Planet books-talking about what we are reading is a great way of developing our comprehension skills but sometimes we don’t know what to talk about. So, here are some book marks with tips for you.
t2-e-3902-year-5-questions-for-reading-bookmark-question-cards_ver_1
Reading-reading can take us away into different times, places, feelings and ideas. Remember to send in your reading in unusual places photos 😎
Reading everyday is key to feeling good and learning.
What should we be reading? Things that interest, entertain and inform us. Books, magazines, appropriate websites, recipes, instructions, rules for games, poems, stories, facts…Everything!
Your child has been allocated super ebooks through Reading Planet. The books are at an appropriate level and are modern and interesting. Each book has quiz questions and teachers can see how pupils are progressing. Teachers will update pupils’ book lists as pupils complete books and their quizzes.
Spelling Shed-spelling activities have been set at an appropriate level for your child and will be checked and updated weekly/as needed. It is very important that Y5 children are as confident and familiar as they can be with the challenging KS2 spellings before they enter Y6. So, it will be most helpful for your child to have spelling practise time each day.
The children also know a variety of fun games and strategies that we use in school to learn spellings: pyramid writing, back writing, deliberate mistakes, rainbow writing, missing consonants or vowels, ‘I’m thinking of a word that means…’
Maths-work is set via MyMaths at a level appropriate to your child.
Times tables and related divisions practise-there are many free apps and online games for this. For example ‘Hit the Button’
Verbal games and asking children to work out multiplications relating to whatever you are doing is also fun and helps the memory.
Optional:
• We use the White Rose Maths in school -if you would like to use the programme below please check which year group is appropriate for your child-not everyone does Y5 work in class.

Saturn Class Summer Term 1
Hello Everyone, the Saturn Class Team hope you are all safe and well.
Keeping to a routine is really helpful and it is important to make that routine work for you. So, get together and agree when works best for things like:
• Breakfast and getting dressed.
• Reading.
• Active time.
• Drawing.
• Helping around the house.
• Maths activities.
• Writing and spelling activities.
• Music time.
• Being outside.
• Baking.
• Gardening.
• Crafts.
• Keeping in touch with family and friends by letter, email, phone call, face time.
Don’t try to fit everything in everyday but make sure that you are keeping up with Maths and English skills Monday to Friday.
• Remember that ‘a little and often’ is a great approach to learning and enjoying that learning.
• Remember that it helps to talk about how we are feeling. Everyday can feel different but we are all in this together. Make sure you have a check- in each day with each other.
• Remember to try and make the school week feel different to the weekend days then we will feel like the weekends are still a break- even though we can’t go on our usual trips yet.
Here are some ideas and activities for you all.
Reading, spelling and maths should be given time every day Monday-Friday.
Learning is fun AND we learn while we are having fun!
Reading-reading can take us away into different times, places, feelings and ideas.

JDF_with cover challenge-cards_DIGITAL
HISTORY AND ART
We love being creative and have been learning about The Industrial Revolution and William Morris’s designs. We researched his life and wrote biographies. In Art and Design we learned about block printing and tried out polystyrene tiles and then started to create our own -William Morris inspired- designs using lino cutting. It is quite challenging but very satisfying. We are proud of our work.
FOREST SCHOOL ACTIVITIES
We have really enjoyed working on our team work and collaboration skills with Mr Wood. We accepted the challenge to build a shelter that would be safe and big enough to hold everyone. We learned to discuss and choose ideas and resources. We also learned how to re-evaluate an idea if it didn’t work out the first time.
Christmas learning.
Our design and technology work has included creating 3D Christmas cards using origami skills and baking our own mini Christmas cakes. It has been so much fun!
We began by evaluating a variety of Christmas cakes-not everyone liked the taste.
We learned how to use compasses to create a circle base for the cake.
Then we followed a recipe and baked our cakes.
We gave our cakes traditional decoration with marzipan and icing and a festive ribbon and wrapping. We are very proud of our work and wrote evaluations of our products.
After learning about the lives of the Anglo Saxons in history we practised clay skills and used tools to help us recreate Anglo Saxon broaches in Art.
York Mosque
During the visit to the mosque the Imam explained about the building and living daily life as a Muslim. The children were interested to learn that every mosque faces towards Mekkah so everyone praying is facing the same way. The children learned more about the five pillars of Islam and practised some prayer positions. The Imam at the mosque was particularly impressed with the questions the children asked.
The children were praised for their behaviour and manners. Well done everyone.
“I would definitiely recommend visiting York Mosque it is a fabulous experience.”
Our visit to The Web gave the children opportunities to develop resilience by managing risk, using appropriate safety equipment and challenging themselves.
“Before we went I was nervous…”
The children rose to the challenge of high rope activities, wearing a harness for safety and negotiating obstacles suspended above the ground. It was very challenging and lots of encouragement was given. Everyone chose their own level of challenge and the smiles of achievement were great to see. Some even had an extra turn.
“I would recommend The Web Adventure Park because it helps you believe in your-self and boosts your self-confidence up and helps you face your fears.”
Thank you to our visitors who attended Open Morning today. We enjoyed working with you to learn about biomes around the world. We created our own maps showing the different biomes and discussed why they differ depending on where on the globe they are.
COOKING AND EATING HEALTHY FOODS
Today we learned more about healthy choices. We cooked chilli and curry using fresh ingredients, doing all the chopping and mixing ourselves. These are some of our thoughts.
“Today was amazing, the food really made me think about healthy choices. The healthy food actually tastes better than unhealthy.”
“I did not like healthy food but now I want the recipe.”
“If you don’t think you like something, try it beacause you never know…”
Three Hagges Wood-The Wood Meadow.
As part of our science learning we visited a conservation area. Everyone had a great morning despite the changing weather. We explored the site and were lucky enough to see a variety of creatures and plants-unfortunately the creatures were faster than our photographers. It was exciting to see a grass snake, a black toad, crickets, a vole, a cabbage white butterfly, slugs, bees, woodlice and ants-to name a few. In class we will be writing fact-files, adverts for the conservation area and diagrams of life cycles of living things.
