Hi Tara ???? you can set out number 7 which ever way you like. I would recommend either through a drawing and labels or in a list, using colours to highlight the differences.
Hi Reece ???? My weekend has been good, quite relaxing really! I'm sure we could let you have the day off on your birthday - try to keep busy at home!

Miss O'Keefe
23 March 2020

Yes Safia, topmarks is fine. Also it says 'horrible history' style fact file, so write in the style of horrible histories (a bit silly) and write in facts.

Mrs Tiribocchi
3 April 2020

Hello Year 5, hope you are all OK. What a strange time we are all experiencing, we are making history. When you're older you can tell your children all about the time that we had to stay home in 2020! Every day my children and I write a diary, we try to include something funny that has happened or we write about how we feel about something. I am really missing seeing my friends so the other day I wrote postcards to them. It made me feel happy and they liked receiving them too. Let me know what you've been doing to amuse yourselves, for the Headstart Mentor Group what Resilient Moves would you suggest we can try? Keep Safe guys, miss you. ????

Mrs Tiribocchi
5 April 2020

Good Morning everyone,
Well it's Palm Sunday today, as you know, this is the day that Jesus went to Jerusalem on a donkey and people were so happy to see him they lay long leaves in his path and realised that he was King of the Lord.
Usually I would be at church, walking around the streets with all the congregation, being led by a donkey to symbolise Jesus's procession.
Did you know that every donkey has a cross on their back? Many people believe this is a sign from God.
Anyway today I can't go to church, instead I have hung some green leaves on my front door to remind people what a special day it is today.

By the way, I didn't realise that emojis turned into question marks on these blogs, I'm even beginning to miss emojis (I'd have put a laughing one here if I could !) xx

Miss O'Keefe
6 April 2020

Hi all!
I have been having a watch of Horrible Histories and the Terrible Tudors online and found a funny poem/rhyme on YouTube about Henry's wives. I was wondering if you could make your own verses for each of the wives using interesting information and facts you have learnt. Then you can put it on our blog for all our class to see!
Simply type in on YouTube 'horrible histories- the wives of Henry Viii'.
Looking forward to hearing your ideas!
Missing you all very much!
Miss O'Keefe x

Miss O'Keefe

Fantastic Mckenzie! Make sure you keep up with your super reading and times tables too!

Miss O'Keefe
7 April 2020

Here is my poem about Catherine of Aragon. Can you create a poem about one of Henry Viii wives?

Old Cath from Spain was wife number one,
She tried so hard to give Henry a son,
This all failed whilst she started to age,
Henry turned from sadness into rage,
He started to plan a possible divorce,
But had to ask for the Pope's permission of course,
The Pope declared a "no" to the split,
But this didn't stop Henry, not one little bit,
He made himself the boss of a new religion,
And asked himself for special permission,
Divorce from old Cath, of course was granted,
"Onto wife number two" he excitedly chanted.

Safia

Odeath Odeath rock her asleep
Bring her quitley to sleep
Try not to let her guilty ghost free
So her terror can't horror me

You obeyed the rules of anne boleyen
So you shall be punished by being chucked in fthe bin

Tyler
22 April 2020

Hi Miss O'Keefe this is my poem all about Jane Seymour a wife who had a short life!

This is a poem about Jane Seymour,
why not listen closely so you can learn more.
Jane was a wife like no other,
Henry the VIII's favourite lover.
The only wife to give birth to a male, but this boy was surely not for sale.
She wanted to be a mother without hesitation,
but sadly poor Jane died during birth operation.
Little old Edward hoped to be king,
but what did his future bring.
Edward the sixth was crowned aged 9, but didn't have enough time to shine. Henry and Jane seen together forever, buried side by side whatever the weather.

Miss Preece
22 April 2020

Reece - I'm loving that poem! Well done you! And tell Mum she's a star for giving you a spelling test every week! How are you doing with it?
Don't be worrying Safia - school will let Dad know when you're to come back so only listen to us ha! ha! I bet JJ was trying to trick you :)

Miss Preece
30 April 2020

Here it is guys - here's my poem :)

I'm going to tell you a little about Anne Boleyn,
So here it is - just give me a min...

Miss Boleyn was born in Kent,
At age 32 she married a man whom she thought was a gent!
To Henry Vlll she became his second wife,
A man she thought she would share the rest of her life.

A little while later she had Henry's baby,
A daughter?! but Henry wanted a son! maybe soon? - maybe just maybe.
No matter how much they tried she gave him no son,
That was it! Henry wanted rid of her, she was over with, done!

King Henry plotted and planned on how to get rid of her,
He wanted her head! Oh no! Ew! Eek! Err!
The king moved his attention to one of Anne's ladies - Miss Jane Seymour,
This just made him want to hurry and kick Anne right out of the door!

He started to accuse Anne of terrible, terrible crimes,
She had no idea what was coming - awful, awful times!
Anne was accused of magic and witchcraft,
"Withcraft?!" she said, "how utterly daft!"
She was also tried for vicious treason,
Wanting to kill the King? Surely she had no reason?!

Sadly it was too late for poor Anne Boleyn,
In 1536 she was pretty much thrown into the bin!
She was arrested, locked away, her fate was sealed - the one everybody dreaded...
QUEEN ANNE BOLEYN LOST HER HEAD - SHE WAS BEHEADED!

In class this week we would of been looking at Place Value and Negative Numbers.

I found a great game online (can be accessed through all devices) which is looking at place value on a number line. I would like you start off with the 0-10 to familiarise yourself, then move on to the negative numbers such as -10 to 10. CHALLENGE YOURSELF!
When a number is shown all you have to do is drag the flag to the correct place on the number line and points can be earned!

Have a go!

Wow, this is our 9th week of Lockdown!!! Considering we haven't been doing very much I think the time has passed quickly, do you? I am at school today, it feels really strange without you guys here, I can't wait to see you all again. Have you been on BBC bitesize? I think its awesome, my son uses it a lot and I must confess i've been polishing up on my SPAG and maths!

My son has had to do World War 2 project and as part of it we had a VE Day party and made some scarecrows to sit in the garden, they made people laugh who were walking past and we got on the local News on TV too which was incredibly exciting!!

We are still writing our diary and saving keepsakes of Lockdown to remember this surreal time. You are all going to receive a letter from your teachers soon , maybe you'll keep it as a momento?

Well I had better get on with my work, hope you are all well and happy and I very much look forward to seeing you soon. In the meantime keep safe and carry on being kind to everyone and yourselves.

Wow, this is our 9th week of Lockdown!!! Considering we haven't been doing very much I think the time has passed quickly, do you? I am at school today, it feels really strange without you guys here, I can't wait to see you all again. Have you been on BBC bitesize? I think its awesome, my son uses it a lot and I must confess i've been polishing up on my SPAG and maths!

Hi Year 5!
Have a look at this sequence:
6, 11, 16, 21, 26

Have a go at answering the questions:
1) What statement can you make that will be true for all the numbers in the sequence?
2) Will 77 be in the sequence? Why?
3) What would be the highest number in the sequence that is smaller than 1000?

You can present it in your exercise book or on paper

Sounds like you've been super busy Tyler! I've seen the body coaches work outs - they look fab! He does Fancy Dress Friday doesn't he? Have you been dressing up for it? Definitely a great start to the day you're right!

How's everybody doing? We've got some lovely weather coming up over the next few days apparently - especially over the bank holiday weekend! Enjoy it, get out in your gardens and soak up the sunshine guys!

Hi all, hope you are well!

As life cycles is our new science topic, I thought it would be nice for you to have a look at the Bitesize website (follow link) were you can watch a video, have a go at the sorting game and take a mini quiz at the end...it's quite interesting!

These definitions may help:
offspring - a persons child or a living things young.
reproduce - the process by which living things produce offspring.

Let me know how you found it! x

To finish off place value for maths, have a go at these challenging word problems!

1) The temperature in Rome is 4 degrees. The temperature in York is 7 degrees lower than that in Rome. What degrees is it in York? Can you mark these temperature on a drawn out number line?

2) Tell me two temperatures that lie between 0°c and -8°c. Which is higher? How do you know? What is the difference between the higher temperature and -8°c?

3) The difference between two numbers is 18 and one of them is negative. What could the two numbers be?

Thank you Safia and Tyler for my birthday wishes, i had a lovely day! I went for a walk up Rivington all the way up the pike, it took around two hours to walk to the top but the view was beautiful!

Well done with the Corona raps, they are sounding good!

Focusing on written calculation in maths, complete the following multiplications using the grid method:

21 x 3 =
5 x 68 =
74 x 14 =
37 x 69 =
309 x 44 =
19 x 423 =

Challenge : 978 x 679 =

Also, a MASSIVE well done to JJ who has earned 743686 points on TT Rockstars. Lets see if anyone can beat him!
