Good Morning Year 5!! 🙂
Quote of the Day – Handwriting Practice
St. Francis of Assisi (1182 – 1226)
“A single sunbeam is enough to drive away many shadows.”
St. Francis is speaking metaphorically here. He isn’t telling us about sunbeams and shadows and how they work literally, he’s using them as metaphors. Can you think of an example of a shadow in your life, and a sunbeam that drove it away? Think about yesterday’s film, what were the shadows and sunbeams in the boy’s life?
Today’s question:
Today’s question is a research question about St. Francis. This famous church in Assisi in Italy took several years to build. The question is what is the name of it and when did they start building it.
Rooftoppers
Before we move onto the our new book we need to take a moment to look back. If you missed any, you can find it all here:
This is our first piece of writing for the exercise book you got in your homework pack. Think about the different threads of the Rooftoppers plot and all the characters we’ve met:
- The Eliots and the National Childcare Agency.
- the currupt Chief Commissioner and his assistant
- Brigitte the secretary
- Monsieur Lille and Monsieur Estoule
- Matteo, Anastasia, Safi and Gerard
- The Gariers
- Charles
- Sophie and her mother
Make predictions about what you think will happen next and try to give a reason for each one. Think about each of the characters and how they will connect with each other, or not. Use the language we learnt for talking about probability: will probably, probably won’t possibly, unlikely, likely, most likely.Â
If you would prefer, and you’re feeling creative, you could write an epilogue. An epilogue is a final chapter of a book that finishes everything off and answers any questions that the author thinks people might have about their characters.

Sirr I need help what is this red book and what to we do in And what’s with felt tips should I use on the plants booklet and the coloured paper and white
Hello Shahd, You’ll see on the blog that today’s writing task will go in the red book. Any writing we do will go there, except for handwriting practice which of course goes in the handwriting booklet. In your plant booklet, I’d use coloured pencils for the drawing if you have them and normal handwriting pen for the writing. If you don’t have a handwriting pen, please use pencil. 🙂
What do we do with the felt tips then?
Nothing for today Shahd 🙂 Unless you have something you want to colour?
Ok
