Good morning Year 5!
Good morning Year 5 and welcome to a new week of learning! This week we continue with long multiplication and we revisit our work on newspaper reports! Crimes are often reported in papers and we meet more criminals in history as we explored smugglers. We will be watching a film called Treasure Island it is based on a very famous book written in 1883 by Robert Louis Stevenson. The main character is Jack Hawkins and young boy who lives in an old inn by the sea were smugglers come to drink and stay! It is a coming of age story as Jack has to grow up very quickly!

LESSON 1 MATHS - LONG MULTIPLICATION USING THE EXPANDED METHOD
Today we continue with our expanded method - a bit trickier as we move into the thousands! Make sure you follow the model using your squares very carefully! NOTE: I spotted an error on my fluency page after I had filmed the lesson - it should say multiples of 2 on the venn diagram not factors of 2 - sooo sorry - didn’t want to confuse you!!
LESSON 2 - ENGLISH GRAMMAR SIMILES AND METAPHORS
Today we explore these figurative language features! Playing with words in this rich way allows us to paint pictures for the reader!

DURATION LESSON 3: To explore on and off beats in different musical styles
This lesson will consolidate some of the learning from lesson 2, as well as exploring how off beats can be found in different musical styles.
Finally - quiet time
Today the children in class came together for worship. This week I’m going to place a link to a prayerful film sharing the Beatitudes. You may want to watch this somewhere quiet. This is Jesus asking us to see the need in others and to respond.
