I have given you a range of revision activities for the Easter holidays. It is up to you how much you complete but obviously the more you attempt the more there is for me to look through with you when you return to School. 

If you need adult help for any of the questions, please make a note by the question so that I know what we need to look at again after Easter.

If you want to contact me for any reason, feel free to email me with any questions or queries and I will get back to you as quickly as possible.

Have a good Easter holiday!

SATs week: Monday 12^th –Thursday 15^th May

Year 5 Literacy/Geography Homework

To be given in on Monday 28^th April 2014

Imagine you have been on holiday to Brazil.  Use what you have learnt this term to write a postcard to Class 5, describing your visit e.g. where did you stay, what was the weather like, where did you visit, what did you see, etc. I’ve included some key vocabulary to help you in the word bank below but I want you to use your own interesting vocabulary to make Class 5 believe that you had the best holiday ever! You can also draw/design an image on the reverse of the postcard to show the location(s) you visited.

If you need help or are stuck for ideas, email me on the details I gave you and I will reply straightaway. I’m really looking forward to reading everyone’s postcards which will make a fantastic display!

This week we are learning about the natural resources of Brazil, as well as the products it grows or manufactures. We have started to think about where these might be exported to and Tuesday night’s homework is to look around your own home to see which products of the rainforest are lurking in your cupboards!

I will be sending the survey sheet home (see below) on Tuesday night but if you are reading this now you have a headstart!

Rainforest at home

This weekend, Class 5 children have been asked to continue planning their stories on deforestation which we are going to start writing on Monday 27th.  They were given time on Friday afternoon to make a start on their plan, making use of the range of topic books in School to remind them about the cause and effect of deforestation in the Amazon rainforest.

I have uploaded the planning sheet below so that they can type their ideas if they wish and they are free to edit the planning sheet as they choose.  If children are unable to print at home, they can bring their work in on a memory stick or email their work to the Office at admin@bicton.shropshire.sch.uk and we will print the document for them.

I’m really looking forward to reading children’s stories next week!
