Art

This art work links to the topic and English home learning which is detailed below.

Create a set of 3 illustrations to accompany your story about the effects of plastic

pollution on your animal character. These could be a full A4 size, or you could split a

large piece of paper into 3 sections to make a trio of illustrations that relate to each

other. You can use any media you like to complete these.

Art Artist of the Week: Henri Rousseau

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yhYXMFB0d38

Questions to ask: Do you like this art? Why? Why not? How does it make you feel?

Does it remind you of any other sort or art? (i.e book illustrations)

Can you create your own Henri Rousseau picture in the forest? You could take a photo first of an outside space near you and then draw it adding your favourite jungle animals. Alternatively, you could use a model of a jungle animal and place it outside to create your own jungle for it.

DT Shadow Puppets

Year 5: Home Working Book

On these perfect sunny days, shadows are easily and readily available. You could create a shadow puppet in a number of ways: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OsdMqNIcrls (Use crafts to create your own) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kz8wP2RYy64 (Use your hands) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Vig2wElEFo (Even create your own theatre) Have a go at making your own!

PSHE Think about someone who has helped you with something, either before these strange weeks when we’ve stayed home, or during them. Have a go at making an acrostic poem for them, using the letters in their name. A simple poem would be just one word for every letter, or for more of a challenge, you could write a phrase or sentence for each letter. Here’s an example of an acrostic poem to jog your memory:

S – sunshine beating through the car’s window. U – umbrellas provide welcome shade on the beach. M – my favourite time of the year. M – Mum brings us an ice lolly to help us cool down. E – every evening is light. R – roads get dusty through lack of rain.

PE

Kids-Do-Better_Ping-towel-pong_Active-Home.pdf?version=5

If you don't have a small ball you could use a sheet and a larger ball or make a small by scrunching up foil.

Topic Watch the following episode of Blue Planet 2. It’s all about how humans are affecting the oceans with plastic use. https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b09jbn5f/blue-planet-ii-series-1-7-our-blue-planet Create an action plan for how we can start to change our behaviour and start looking after the oceans a bit better. What do we need to do? What should be banned? How could people help? What timeframe do you think we could do it in? You could present this information in a table, as bullet points or in any other way that presents your ideas clearly.

Science

Have a look at the baby/child and adult photos at the end of this document. Can you match the baby/child to the adult? What clues did you use? Have a think about what children can do at different ages. Use your own experiences of children, the internet or books to research some milestones for babies, toddlers and children up to 5 years old. You could use the sentence stem: At age ___ months, a baby can normally __________. At XX years old, a child can ___________. Or maybe you’d like to draw a picture of a baby/child at different ages and put some notes about what they can do alongside the pictures.

English Use the information you have found out in the Blue Planet episode to create a story about an animal in the ocean who has been affected by plastic pollution. Write the story from that animal’s point of view.

English

Maths Find out the meaning of the word ‘polygon’. On the dotty paper at the end of this document, draw some regular and irregular polygons with different numbers of sides. How strange can you make the irregular ones? Do you notice anything about the angles when you compare irregular polygons with irregular polygons? Use the Carroll diagram to sort the shapes below. Can you think of any different labels you could use on a new Carroll diagram to sort the shapes differently? Draw a new one and try sorting it in your new way.

Maths List as many 3D shapes as you can think of. Can you think of 8 or more? Try making a

model of an interesting one out of straws, sticks or anything straight.

Music Album of the Week:

ABBA – Gold: Greatest Hits

A chance to boogie!

Enjoy together and share whether you enjoy the tracks. How does it make you feel? What

makes this the same/ different to the other music we have listened to.
