READING AND WRITING (spend up to 1 hour) You will find the reading and writing resources in the Year 5 Home Learning folder. Please remember some reading can be done independently but please support your child with the reading if necessary. Ideas on how to support your child with their reading: - Your child could read the text aloud. - You or your child could take it in turns to read. - You could read aloud to your child. - Don’t underestimate the power of re-reading. You could read a page and your child reads it back to you.

ADDITIONAL LEARNING – TRANSITION LEARNING

Starting a new academic year is a time for you to say farewell to your current teachers and hello to many new faces. It is important for you to cherish your favourite memories. Create a drawing or art piece of your special memory and frame it in a hand-made photo frame. You may choose to draw a favourite lesson, a funny moment with friends, a school trip or a job role you were proud of. You may choose to decorate the photo frame provided or to make your own using card.

You are all unique and special. Over the course of the last year, you will have achieved so much. Whether that’s learning your times tables, or having the confidence to put your hand up in class and offer an answer. An achievement is something that has been accomplished through great effort, skill, perseverance or courage. Mind map all of your achievements this year, both in school and outside of school. What’s your greatest achievement? Write about your special achievement. How did you accomplish this? What barriers did you face? Who helped you? You could record this as a story featuring yourself as the main character, a newspaper report or even write a rap!

Ending the academic year can be a time that is full of mixed emotions. However, whilst many aspects of school life change, many remain the same too. What are the similarities and differences between your current class and the new class that you will be going into? Can your also create a poster that illustrates top tips for making friends and showing kindness? You could speak to family members or your own friends to gather some ideas first.

Art can be a great tool for self-exploration and self-expression. Create a piece of artwork which represents your personality and highlights your individual qualities. This could be a picture or something more abstract using materials available at home. You may find listening to your favourite music encourages your own expression. What do you want to represent in this piece? How did you try to show off your personality through your artwork?

Setting goals is an excellent way for you to try and achieve things that you might not think is possible. Goal setting will also help you to improve your confidence and self-esteem when you see that you can achieve the target you’ve set. Create a ‘Wheel of Fortune’ (see below). Use the headings: Learning, Friendships, Physical Challenge, Wellbeing and Family. Under each heading, write a goal thinking carefully about how long it will take to achieve each goal, who or what can help you and any difficulties you may have to overcome.

For your new teacher: Your new teacher would love to get to know a bit more about you! Compete the ‘For my teacher’ booklet, which you can fnd in the Year 5 Home Learning folder. Don’t forget to bring it with you in September! Have a lovely summer holiday and we can’t wait to see you soon!
