Good morning Year 5 and welcome to your Geography week- lets investigate rivers!!!
TASK 1 - Geography Quiz
Let’s get you thinking and talking like a geographer! Working alongside an adult (if you have one) complete the Geography Quiz set on Purple Mash. It will help you to re-engage with some geographical language. Don’t worry if you don’t know all the answers this is not an exam- have fun!

TASK 2 - INTRODUCTION TO RIVERS THROUGH FILM
Here are two film. The first is a simple introduction to the river and what it is. The second is a fabulous film which takes you on a journey of the River Severn. The longest river in the UK. It starts at the source (beginning of the river) to the mouth (the end of the river as it enters the sea)

TASK 3 - LEARNING THE RIVERS OF THE BRITISH ISLES
Now that you have watched the short films. Have a go at naming all the major rivers of the United Kingdom. You have a map with the rivers numbered and below this (scroll down) a table to fill in. You also have a physical geography map of the United Kingdom. Notice how the rivers all flow from mountains into the sea- oh yes and which sea does each river flow into?
TASK 4 ENGLISH- LET’S FIND OUT WHAT TOME AND HATTY GET UP TO NEXT
There is really drama in chapter 16 today. Listen along with Miss or read the chapters independently!
TASK 5 - SUMDOG
I never put 5 task on! - The Geography today had three parts and the first two were short and sweet. However I do not want to over do it so today I have set a quick fire fraction maths challenge (just 25 questions) on SUMDOG.
We are losing Sumdog now as it will longer be free past June. You will still be able to play on it but not with all the games.
Complete all 25 questions or complete 25 mins which ever comes first!!!
