We have been learning about time this week; some of the children are finding some aspects really hard so please remember to point out different times while you are out and about (particularly looking at the difference between analogue and digital). If you are waiting for a bus, think about how long you are waiting or if you are watching something, how long does the programme last?

This week’s homework is to complete the Growing up in Leeds survey diary.
I can complete my Growing up in Leeds survey diary.
As described in the recent letter and following the lesson with Mrs Freeman this afternoon, Year 5 will be completing the Growing up in Leeds survey over the next few weeks. This confidential online survey, available to all schools in Leeds, addresses pupil perception of health, safety, enjoyment, achievement and participation.
Data from the survey will be used to inform change across aspects of health in school and provide evidence for our Healthy Schools status.
The diary should be completed as fully as possible over the next week and returned to school by next Friday 28 June. It will support the children with completing the survey and help to provide the most accurate results.
If you have any questions about the diary or the survey please contact me through the school office.

The homework this week is Practice Makes Perfect and is due in Wednesday 26 June.
I can calculate proportion.
This week we have been learning about ratio and proportion. In their homework book, your child has a worksheet to complete about proportion. Whilst this is not creative, try and bring in real life examples as you’re out and about relating to proportion. For example, you could ask a question like:
“What proportion of family members are female?”
This will really help to embed their understanding of proportion. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to speak with me.

The homework this week is Talk Time and is due in Wednesday 19 June.
I can reflect on my learning.
As we approach the end of the year, this is a great chance to reflect on what the children have achieved over the three terms. Discuss with your child what they think they have got better at concerning their learning. You may want to consider:
- their proudest achievement
- their most challenging learning
- what they think they will have to focus on next year
Nothing needs to be written in books as it’s talk time homework. However, make sure your child has considered their strengths and weaknesses over the year and that they are ready to discuss them by next Wednesday.

Homework this week is creative. It’s the third of three homework tasks this school year when we invite children to respond to something from a cultural or spiritual perspective (we’ve timed these so they fall close to religious festivals, from Eid to Easter).
I can respond to a piece of art.
This week, we’d like children to present their responses about a piece of art. Your child might think about the colours used in the artwork or the line or shapes. They may discuss the mood of the piece and decide if they like or dislike it.
However, your child might prefer to do the following:
I can show how I celebrate an occasion.
We invite children to respond to the sentence above – they might include a recount (like a diary entry), a report, draw pictures or use photographs to show how they celebrate an occasion.
It’s the half-term break…
…so there’s no homework or spellings this week. Enjoy the holiday, whatever you get up to.
