Hello everyone,

Today is the last day of term!  We now have a holiday for two weeks.    We hope you have a lovely, restful break.  Remember to stay safe and healthy by exercising, eating healthy food and having fun!  Remember it is important to continue some learning such as reading every day for at least ten minutes, practising your times tables and doing any learning activities you haven't completed from our blog.  We will not be posting anything on this blog for the next two weeks.  We will start posting learning activities again on Monday  8th June.

Bye for now!
Mr Tait and Mr Ahmed-Swift

Hello everyone,

For those children, celebrating Eid  al-Fitr at some point this weekend Eid Mubarak !  Have a lovely time!

Hi guys, 
                           Do you remember this  song that we learned in assembly?
It's called  ' Stand by me'  I want you to listen to it and sing along.  The version you will listen to  is in a different key  to what we have sung it in. It's also slightly different to my version of it.
When you have learned the song try to accompany it with your own ostinato(simple  repeated pattern)   rhythm. You won't be expected to  play the rhythm and sing at the same time.

Hope you enjoy it.

Good morning everyone!

This is the last day of virtual learning for 2 weeks. We hope you have a happy and safe half term break.

​
From 9.30 – 10.00 am, we want you to practise your spellings.  The spelling lists were uploaded on a blog post dated 20/3/20.  We suggest that you practise ten spellings each day (start on step 5).  Remember to use the ‘Look, say, cover, write, check’ method to remember the spellings.

Next, we want you to   read    for half an hour.  Read your book or online text to an experienced reader if possible (this could be your mum, dad, carer, brother, sister or any other relative).  While you are reading, ask the person who is listening to you read to ask you questions about the book/text. 
If you have any questions about the learning activities then please email us at:
year5l@crumpsall.manchester.sch.uk    (for Mr Ahmed-Swift)
