Year 5AK: Blog items
Date: 24th Apr 2020 @ 8:43am
Good morning everyone! I just cannot get over this consistently sunny weather we're having! I think we might have a little BBQ this evening, and Livvi really wants to do some baking. We've found a recipe for rhubarb pots that she'd really like to try, and we're very lucky because we have some rhubarb growing in our garden. Maybe I'll post a photo of our baking results later!
We'd love to hear what you're getting up to today, and we LOVE seeing photos of your learning from the daily activities - watch out for the blog post later on today celebrating that brilliant learning!

Mrs Hodges here!
Here's the final Sentence of the Day for this week!

Remember to check back to see my purple pen sentence later on!
Good afternoon! How did you get on with today's sentence? Click the link below to compare my corrected one to yours! Just about to start making the rhubarb pots with Livvi and Asaph, I'll let you know how I get on later!

Right, rhubarb pots are made! I've attached a photo - what do you think? I'm quite pleased with them, and I can already tell you from the sneaky taste I had, they're very delicious! I loved getting an email from Rhianna showing a cake she baked - have you been learning to cook or bake any new things?

Good Morning from Miss Wendt!
I have to say Mrs Hodges, I do love sweet treats featuring rhubarb - It's one of my favourite fruits! You are very lucky having rhubarb in your garden.
It's been lovely to see and read all of the emails this week, we will be posting some of your wonderful work later on today!
On with the maths...
Today I've got a fluent in five AND a challenge for you! I enjoyed doing the find all possibilities on Wednesday so I have included another of those.

Happy Friday everyone from Miss Brookes!
I have to say from reading these posts, baking does sound quite appealing! Though my brother has kindly been doing our essential shopping for us and his 'substitute' items for something like flour, would be something you can't even bake with, knowing my brother! I've got all of the equipment and none of the ingredients - Oh well, I will ask and we will see what turns up 
I get so excited when my phone pings and it's the year 5 email with all of your fabulous work - well done everyone, I can't wait to see what else you get done while at home!
I have also had a go at one of the Connected Curriculum challenges. My mum has a free app on her IPad called 'Happy Colour by Numbers.' It gives you different pictures, and an array of colours. Every time you click on a colour, it highlights the area that needs to be coloured in - and then you tap on it and like magic, the colour appears! Each day there's a daily challenge, and on Wednesday my Mum said "this one looks a little bit complicated, can you do it for me?" Being the wonderful daughter I am, of course I offered to do the painting! Little did I know, it was going to be a Space painting of the Solar System! I've attached a picture of it for you all to see, as well as a video where you can see a speeded up version of how I painted it!
I can't wait to see your Connected Curriuclum challenges!
Now onto GVP. Can you remember the four key areas we looked at this week? Today is a recap on these areas, followed by a quiz for you all (which I have attached).

I will post a video explaining the answers at around 3pm today, so good luck!
Good afternoon everyone!
Here are the answers for today's GVP quiz. How did you do?

Hi everyone,
I hope everyone is finding ways to enjoy this amazing weather, I don't think we've ever had such a nice April before!
So today's wellbeing challenge is another way to make the most of the weather and get out in your gardens and do some gardening!
Here are some nice ideas for things to do that you don't really need many resources for: https://www.gardenersworld.com/how-to/grow-plants/10-gardening-projects-for-kids/
I bet you'll already have a lot of the things in your house or garden or you could collect some of them like twigs etc while out on a walk (make sure you wash your hands after if you do that!) My favourite is the fairy garden.
Alternatively you could plant some seeds from something that you've just eatedn such as tomato seeds.
If you don't have a garden then why not design and draw your own garden (or fairy garden!) instead? You could maybe try and re-create it when you're older and have your own garden!
I have a balcony rather than a garden and had never done any gardening until a few weeks ago but below are a couple of pictures of the things I've planted! I'm watering them every day and the sun is making most of them grow nice and tall.
Have fun and remember to let us know what you've done!
Mrs Glover
