Science:
Think about the experiment you created and tested last week: Was the experiment accurate? If not what could you change? Did you get the results you expected? If not do you know why? Did you get the results you expected? How could you further test these are accurate? Was it a fair test?
Your challenge today is to create your own experiment to ensure you get more accurate results linked to friction (see previous week’s science blog for video link to friction as a recap if you need to). Post your ideas on Seesaw. Happy investigating!

Really enjoyed looking through all of your wonderful work on this rainy Tuesday! Have some of you managed to get outside too? I did and got extremely wet!
Sophie- Fantastic maths work today, very accurate.
Imogen- I love your recount writing from today, using phrases such as ‘in awe’ and a range of emotive language. Also extremely pleased to see how much work you’re completing each day through spelling shed and times tables rockstars, plus reading Charles Dickens! What have you read so far?
Poppy- A fantastic maths booklet you’ve created today- what a wonderful way to display your work. Great to see some clear explanations for your mathematical thinking as well. I loved your art work too, it was extremely neat.
Layla- An amazing Tutankhamun mask- I like how you’ve used stickers layered to create the gold shiny face. Wonderful writing and maths today too. You have been busy!
Amelie- Great art work, I’m extremely impressed that you drew your own Tutankhamun mask. You’ve also completed lots of maths work today and I loved your writing- you worked really hard to include appropriate prepositional phrases.
Ria- A fantastic drawing of Tutankhamun, I’m so impressed.
Lilith- Brilliant literacy and maths work today, you’re demonstrating aspiration every day.
Thomas- What a fantastic mask, I love that it is life sized and you’ve included yourself in the picture! I was very impressed to read your maths work too, especially to see you showing resilience when correcting mistakes.
Somebody in Poplar also uploaded a typed recount of ‘Tomb Runner’ which was amazing! You’ve written in clear paragraphs and I love the variety of language you have used. Please remember to include your name so that it can go in our shout outs.
Keep working hard Year 5, I’m so overwhelmed with the PASSION for your learning you are demonstrating.
English: Check through your planning from yesterday, now we will write our recount thinking about the key information we want to include to be successful:
Prepositional phrases, past tense, first person (we will be the main character today!), emotive vocabulary.
I’ll give you an example of how you could begin your recount if you need help to begin:
Yesterday was the most intriguing – yet nerve-wracking- experience in my life. As I entered the pyramid, I was faced with vast darkness: fear engulfed my person as I crept – gingerly – towards the arched opening to the -what I thought would be filled with a plethora of artefacts – unoccupied area. Beneath my sand-covered boots, a beetle scurried towards the crack-filled walls: did he know something that I didn’t about what I was about to discover? As I edged closer, I was transfixed by the abundant space, filled with darkness, high above me.
Don’t forget to edit for spellings and punctuation! Make sure you upload on to Seesaw too.

Who was King Tutankhamun? https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/zg87xnb/articles/zvmkhbk
Find a template – or use the one below to help – to create your own Tutankhamun mask. If possible, cut up squares of paper to create a mosaic-type mask using yellow and blue (as his was decorated). If unable to use coloured paper, use your blue/yellow pens or pencils to decorate your own King Tut mask. Upload your artwork to the Seesaw page.
Some fantastic work uploaded onto Seesaw already today:
Edward- A great start to your ‘Tomb Runner’ planning, brilliant to see you’ve taken the time to use a range of prepositional phrases!
Lilith- Some fantastic maths work demonstrating your understanding of place value and proving your answers.
Eva- Great to see the ‘Tomb Runner’ has inspired you so much- what fantastic writing! I love that you’ve split your writing into two time sections.
Erin- Lots of accurate maths work, well done!
Lily- A good setting description with great adverbial sentence openers.
Ria- Brilliant grammar practice- keep it up!
One person in Poplar has also uploaded their planning for ‘Tomb Runner’ clearly bullet pointed in chronological order and using some fantastic emotive vocabulary. Well done! Remember to add your name so I can give you a shout out!
Hello Year 5! I hope you’ve had a restful weekend and are looking forward to continuing your fantastic learning at home. Below is what your learning looks like for this week:
I’ve also uploaded a ‘home learning pack’ in the post below, which covers all of your learning for the whole week, if you and your parents would prefer to use that format. Otherwise, below is the learning to be completed on Monday. I look forward to seeing all of your hard work!
English:
https://www.literacyshed.com/the-egyptian-pyramids.html Watch the video again from last week and find your notes you made previously linked to key events and emotive vocabulary. We will be using this to plan a recount of our visit inside the pyramid – as if we were the main character from the video. As you watch again, add to your emotive vocabulary list. If you cannot find your notes from before, do not worry you can start a new one and watch as many times as you’d like! Plan your recount thinking of not only emotion and past tense but also prepositional phases (using the image below as a guide):
