Happy

New Year everyone!

I hope you all had a wonderful, blessed Christmas and New Year. I thought we should start with a bit of a dance. 🙂 There is also something about this video that will feature in our class English book this term. I wonder who will spot it when it comes up.

Happy Epiphany and a happy 2021 Year 5!

It’s 2021!! 2020 has finished and we can soon look forward to life getting back to normal. We just have a few more months of being super careful with our hand washing and social distancing to keep everyone safe. Many of you will know that yesterday was the feast of the Epiphany. This is very relevant for year 5, as you acted it out so wonderfully in the nativity play – the Epiphany was when the Magi visited the baby Jesus.

We are changing the way we are working this time. All the work you need to do will be on J2Homework. You can find it on your BGFL page. It looks like this:

In here, you’ll find two pieces of work for today – one for Maths and one for English. Next week, there will be theme work everyday as well but we are going to start off slowly. The due date for both pieces of work is tomorrow, but make sure you do them today because there will be more work for tomorrow. 🙂

Both pieces of homework today have two pages. To get to the second page you will need to go to the top right hand corner and click on the page turner which looks like this:

Our book this term is The London Eye Mystery by Siobhan Dowd.  Some of you  have probably heard of the London Eye, or you might have even been on it!? To begin, here is a video of the London Eye being lifted into position in 1999 ready for the millennium celebrations. 

Now have a look at your English work in J2Homework.

Finally for today, as we are not in the school building, we are going to keep our table groups the same for a while longer. Points will go out for online work and there will be weekly prizes for the winning teams. Have fun, and see you tomorrow, make sure you email me if you have any questions. 🙂
