Date: Monday 29th June 2020 Good Morning! I hope you have all had a lovely, safe weekend. I am looking forward to spending a little more time with some of you in school this week. Here is your learning for today. J English Once again, we are lucky that the Lancashire English team have provided some work for us. This week, the Writing focus theme is Space! We are going to explore what is in our Solar System, the famous ‘Space Race’ and the thrilling, true survival space story – Apollo 13. When following links online, parents should monitor that children are remaining on that page only and are keeping safe online. For this week, Year 5 and Year 6‘s Home Learning Unit is the same. The reading and activities set will meet the needs of both year groups whilst still providing challenge. Find out about the Solar System by reading these two sources – making notes as you read about each planet: Planetarium Junior Edition by Raman Prinja: https://www.lovereading4kids.co.uk/book/16329/Planetarium- Junior-Edition-by- Raman-Prinja.html (You will need to become a member of LoveReading4Kids. Membership is free). National Geographic Kids – The Solar System: https://www.natgeokids.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/The- Solar-System-Primary-Resource.pdf Now enjoy this rap on YouTube about the Solar System, ‘Outer Space: “We are the Planets,” The Solar System Song by StoryBots – Netflix Jr’ here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHAqT4hXnMw Based on what you have read and watched, create your own rap, song or poem about the Solar System. You may create your rap, song or poem in different ways, such as: • Use the rap you listened to on YouTube as a starting point and edit some of the lyrics/ add to the existing lyrics to create your own version. • Choose one part of the Solar System to create your rap/song or poem about e.g. your favourite planet. • Choose your favourite type of poem such as a limerick, haiku or acrostic and use this to write about the Solar System. Make sure you keep practising your rap, song or poem by reading it aloud and editing as you write. Once you have finished, have a go at performing it to someone in your house. If possible, you could also record it to send to your teacher! If you are feeling really creative, why not make a music video to support your performance too! Spellings LO: To convert nouns or verbs into adjectives using the suffix -ive attractive creative addictive assertive abusive co-operative exhaustive appreciative offensive expressive These are your spellings for this week. They have all got the suffix -ive added. Can you find the root word of each of the words? Once you have found the root word, come up with a rule for adding the suffix -ive.

Grammar LO: To use modal verbs to say how likely something I can… e.g. I can do a handstand is to happen. I could… I may… Have a look at the list opposite and see if you can I might… think of a sentence that uses each possibility. I will… I would… I must… I should… I ought to… These words are known as modal verbs. Modal verbs work with another verb to describe how likely things are to happen or to what degree of certainty something is known. Arithmetic Monday Addition Tuesday Subtraction Wednesday Multiplication Thursday Division Friday Fractions Maths LO: To solve problems involving mass. Here is a list of the competitors in one round of a weightlifting competition. Their body mass is listed next to their name. Weightlifters Name Mass Sebastian 80.365kg Tomas 110.91kg Jay 64.85kg Andrew 73.495kg Kevin 89.99kg Which pair has the largest difference between their body masses - Andrew and Sebastian, or Kevin and Tomas? How could you find this answer without using a written method? Kevin and Tomas have the largest difference in Mass. We can work this out by rounding each measurement to the nearest kilogram and finding the difference. The difference between 90 and 111 is larger than the difference between 80 and 73. In weightlifting competitions, the competitors are placed in different categories to compete against each other. Here are the categories from one weightlifting competition: Men Category Mass (up to) 1 55kg 2 67.5kg 3 81.5kg 4 96.5kg 5 over 96.5kg Women Category Mass (up to) 1 45kg 2 55.5kg 3 64.5kg 4 76.5kg 5 over 76.5kg The category that each competitor is placed in depends on their body mass. Which categories should these male competitors be placed in? Weightlifters Name Mass Category Sebastian 80.365kg Tomas 110.91kg Jay 64.85kg Andrew 73.495kg Kevin 89.99kg Are any of these female competitors in the same category as each other? Weightlifters Name Mass Category Patricia 49.745kg Trina 80.447kg Nikita 68.57kg Anne 50.13kg Charlotte 53.25kg Sam 61.1kg Before the competition begins, the barbell starts off with a 20kg weight plate on either side. In the first round, Charlotte adds a 12.75kg weight plate to each side of her barbell. In the second round, Charlotte adds a 8.25kg weight to each side of her barbell. In the third round, 5kg and 1.75kg weights are added to each side. Remember that the barbell starts with a 20kg weight plate on either side. How could we work out how much mass charlotte lifts altogether? Here are the amounts that Sam lifted in all three rounds. Can you calculate the total mass that she lifted in each round? Weight Plates Added Round Total Mass (in addition to 2 × 20kg) 1 2 × 15kg 2 2 × 12.25kg 3 2 × 5kg and 2 × 2.5kg History Over the next two weeks, I would like you to choose activities from the following list to complete. We usually do Topic three times per week, so you can complete three each week if you like! If you want to do more, feel free! There are a range of different tasks. Some require making and creating, others require writing. I don’t mind what you choose – just make sure you have fun! .
