This week’s home learning:
Remember to let your teacher know if you need a reminder of your log-ins for anything. And also remember to record your reading in your reading record – even if you are reading independently! It lets your teachers know what you’re reading, what you enjoy and how we can help you. 🙂
Today, Year 4 enjoyed their educational visit to the Tower of London. This was a great way to find out a little bit more about the Tudors, and we even had the opportunity to meet Lady Latimer – aka Katherine Parr – shortly after she had accepted King Henry VIII’s marriage proposal! Do you remember what year we were in?
We found out about Henry’s previous five wives, and learnt the beginning of the rhyme, “Divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded…” but how does it end?! Can you find out what happened to his sixth and final wife?
The children were very excited by the ravens, and most of them managed to hang on to their lunches! We also had the opportunity to see the Crown Jewels.
All in all, a fabulous day.
Remember to keep having conversations at home about time! You can ask your adults questions like “What time is dinner?” and work out how long until dinner time, or “How long until bed time?” and work out what time it is now. Practise, practise, practise – you’re all getting there! 👍
Welcome back! It is so lovely to see you after the Easter break. I hope you are all well-rested and ready for the summer term, and our final term of Year 5!
Here is this week’s home learning.
Remember, we are going swimming next week and the week after, so you will need your swimming kits!
Well done for all the hard work this term Year 5! Have a relaxing break over the holidays, and we look forward to seeing you back, rested and raring to go in a couple of weeks.
Here is the home learning for the holidays. If you scroll down, you’ll find a template for the paper helicopter and some links to videos for other designs.
