Year 5 will continue to use online learning for their homework this year and on a Tuesday afternoon I will post the details of Year 5’s homework here. Homework should be completed by the following Monday ready for spelling and times tables tests on a Tuesday.
Websites we will use for homework…
IXL English and Maths - please see letter that children have brought home.
Education City
TT Rockstars
Bedrock Vocabulary programme- still awaiting logins from Bedrock
Today the children have come home with a reminder of their logins for Education City and TTRockstars. All logins can be found in the front of their reading diaries. In addition to these sites, the children will also have access to two new sites - IXL , which I know they used as part of a trial in Year 4, and a new site called Bedrock (once Bedrock send me the logins for the children, I will introduce this to them and send the details home).
Homework 7.9.21
Read regularly and get your diary signed.
It is the expectation that Year 5 should read regularly (every night if possible) and parents please sign your child's reading diary each time they read so that they can collect their bookmark stickers. The children choose books from within their ZPD range and once these are finished they can quiz on their book and this helps us to assess their progress in reading. Reading books and diaries need to be in school every day. Please note that reading diaries will be checked daily in school, however, please be patient with us whilst we get into routine - all diaries will be updated as soon as we can and children will be rewarded for their reading.
IXL - Do each activity for at least 15 minutes (or score 100)
English:
B.1 Which word is a noun?
B.2 Identify nouns
Maths :
A.5 Place value review
A.7 Writing numbers up to 100,000 in words: convert words to digits
Times tables - x2 ready for a test next week. These will also include divisions e.g. 14÷2? How many 2s are in 24? If you’re secure in these ones, then practise one that you are not so familiar with. Use TTRockstars to build up your speed.
Spellings for a test next week. These are taken from the Year 5 spelling list. A copy of this will be sent home and the children will need to be able to spell all of these by the end of Year 5. Please note that we are still assessing spelling, so it may be that I need to differentiate spellings in coming weeks for small groups of children.

Thanks for your support.
