Great Wood Home Learning Recommendations Year 5 13th July to 17th July 2020
Hello 5F and 5C children – This week we will be providing home learning using the Oak National Academy online classroom for maths and foundation subjects, while using the Lancashire’s read and respond online activities for English. At the end of this week’s home learning plan, we have added a weblink to the RNLI free downloadable primary teaching pack, which will help to prepare your child with beach and water safety skills ahead of the summer. Keep up your daily exercise to make sure you have a healthy mind and body, and don’t forget about the daily Joe Wick’s PE sessions on Youtube.
Remember to send us work for feedback and for sharing/ celebration. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you require any further support or information regarding the following activities. However, please don’t worry if you don’t hear back from your class teacher immediately, as they will be teaching every school day this week.
Maths. Warm up with 5 minutes on Times Tables Rock Stars. Remember, practice will improve your speed and proficiency.
For this week’s maths sessions, you are going to use the Oak National Academy (online classroom) lessons, which will continue to focus on converting units of measurements. If you have finished the lesson and would like to practise additional maths skills, or you are struggling to understand the lesson, continue to explore the diagnostics arena or the recommendations wall on IXL. Just remember to click on, “I don’t know this yet” if you are stuck and the site will lead you to more accurately pitched skills so you can progress from there.

Great Wood is providing you with options and choices to promote learning but does not wish to put undue pressure on children and families at this time. What is suggested will consolidate areas that the children have already covered and when we return to school, teachers will make sure all gaps in learning are filled. Please contact your child’s teacher by email if you have questions.
