Week 5
Hello Owls,
I hope you all had a great weekend celebrating VE Day with your household. It was a great chance for us to stop and think about all our service men and women, past and present, who have done so much for us. In a time that we may be finding tricky, it is nice to think about what we are thankful for. It would be great if you could come up with 6 things you are grateful for and put them into a gratitude list. I have thought about mine this weekend and here it is.
Miss Ward’s Gratitude List
- My home
- Our school
- Family/ Friends
- Fresh air
- Books
- Music
It was lovely to see how you have been spending your time over the weeks, some of which are on our Week 4 page. I hope you all have a fabulous week and can send me updates on what you’ve been doing to owls@altrinchamceprimaryschool.co.uk.
Keep a growth mindset.
All my best,
Miss Ward

Maths
This week, you can access BBC Bitesize to support your daily lessons. White Rose are continuing to provide videos, however they are not providing the worksheets to support the lessons. I have uploaded them below for you to access instead. The answers for each lesson can also be found here.
Phonics
Monday's lesson completes our -ed and -er focus. The remainder of the week looks at -eer and -ear
Spelling
Reading
Here are two reading activities you can do during the week.
Grammar
This week I would like you to have a look at using apostrophes for possession.
Writing
Answer the question, ‘Where on Earth is the Amazon Rainforest?’
This can be completed over the whole week or within two ‘lessons’.
Research and then make a poster.
You can include
- How far away is the Amazon Rainforest?
- How big is the Amazon Rainforest?
- Which countries is it in?
- Pictures/ photos/ maps
Try to use Google Earth/ Maps and any other virtual reality to explore this part of the world.
