Buddhism

This map shows us how many Buddhists there are in the world. As you can see, East Asia has the biggest Buddhist population.

And this map below shows the countries where Buddhism is traditionally the main religion, and the type of Buddhism which is practised there.

Statues of Buddha are very important in Buddhism, and every Buddhist country has its own way of representing the Buddha. Watch the videos below and do your own research to find the statue you like the most, and then fill in a fact file telling us all about it.

Happy World Book Day

Year 5!

🙂

As today is World Book Day, there are no online classes, instead you’ll be spending the day doing activities related to your favourite books.

Let’s begin with our World Book Day Assembly from Mrs. Bell.

No live lessons; No home learning to do. Today is World Book Day!!

Start by putting on your most favourite pyjamas. Then click below to go to ‘Share A Story Corner,’ read some stories of your choice.

Now choose your book and complete the missions. If you enjoyed the activities you can repeat them again with another book!!

If you have a potato (if not) an apple will do, to make (carve) your favourite character out of the potato.  Here are some examples below.

You can use what you can find in your home.

Listen out for your characters and names in the stories told by Steve Smallman.

Share your reading fun with us. Take a photo of your potato character and of you reading your book, wearing your pyjamas, in a funny or unusual place of your home.

If you haven’t found a story yet, here’s one of my favourites:

Send your photos in to Mrs Bell, so that we can share your fun on our school website.

Have fun everyone.

See you tomorrow!

🙂

Before we start today, we need to learn a little about how cameras and photography  worked before digital cameras. Until about 20 years ago, photographs had to be developed in a darkroom using special chemicals. It could be a long and difficult process. Look at the two videos below to see how cameras used to work and how photographs used to be made.

This is the type of camera that Aunt Gloria gives to Salim, telling him that it will make him a better photographer. It also features in today’s story – the Sherlock Holmes classic – The Red-headed League. As Ted and Kat’s investigation continues, Ted looks to the most famous sleuth of them all for inspiration. Today we are taking a break from the London Eye Mystery to find out more about Sherlock Holmes.
