Year 5 Maths Home Learning - 08.02.21 - 12.02.21
Hello to my wonderful Year 5,
I loved speaking to you all on the phone last week. I know we are all finding it a little bit tough at the moment, but I just want you know that you are all are doing amazing and we will all be back together soon. Don’t ever worry if you are finding the work tricky, please just email me and we can go through the activity together over the phone.
I found this poem and wanted to share it with you all, as the message it sends is so important. Just remember, keep trying your best, keep smiling and we will see each other soon.
The Rainbow Children
By Gemma Peacock
The history books will talk of now,
That time the world stood still.
When every family stayed at home,
Waved out from windowsills-
At those they loved but could not hold,
Because they loved them so.
Yet, whilst they did they noticed all the flowers start to grow.
The sun came out, they can recall,
And windows, rainbows filled.
They kicked a football in their yards,
Until the night drew in.
They walked each day but not too close,
That time the world stood still.
When people walked straight down the roads,
That once the cars did fill.
They saw that people became ill,
They knew the world was scared.
But whilst the world stood still they saw,
How much the whole world cared.
They clapped on Thursdays from their doors,
They cheered for the brave.
For people who would risk their lives,
So others could be saved.
The schools closed down, they missed their friends,
They missed their teachers so.
Their Mam’s and Dad’s helped with their work,
They help their minds to grow.
The parents used to worry that,
As school were put on hold,
Their children wouldn’t have the tools,
They’d need as they grew old.
But history book will talk of them,
Now adults, fully grown.
Those little boys and girls back then,
The ones who stayed at home.
They’ll tell you that they fixed this world,
Of all they would fulfil.
The rainbow children building dreams,
They’d dreamed whilst time stood still.
In our Maths lesson this week, we are learning how to tell the time using an analogue and digital clock. We will be looking back at some of the things you have already done just to make sure we are all confident with our learning. In our times table session this week, you will be applying your 2-, 10- and 5-times table knowledge to answer a range of reasoning and problem solving. In our arithmetic, we will be looking at missing number sentences. If you have any questions, please email me.
Can’t wait to see what work you produce this week. Keep checking our Year 5 Learning Gallery to see what we have all been up too.
