Longstone Primary School Home Learning Grid - Level (P5/6)
Writing Reading Numeracy
We have been learning about:
• adjectives: describing words (e.g.
tall)
• nouns: things you can touch (e.g.
a cat)
• verbs: things you do (e.g. talking)
• adverbs: words that describe
adjectives (e.g. quickly; slowly)
Have a look at the picture attached to
this learning grid.
Can you write some adjectives, nouns and verbs that you can see?
Can you write 5 sentences using adverbs to describe
what is happening in the picture? Using adverbs, can you write an exciting opener? Then, write the first paragraph for this story, using powerful adjectives and adverbs.
You should all have your class-reading novel at home. These are the pages you got up to:
• James and Peach: p51
• Kidnapped: end of
Chpt3
• Charlotte's Web: p52
For your reading this week, read
a chapter of your book.
If you are reading Secret Garden, read p1 - 12 Then pick an activity from the Reading Wall to practise your comprehension skills. If you do not have your class-reading novel, use a book from home or pick a free e-book: https://www.oxfordowl.co.uk/for-home/find-a-book/library-page
We will be practising subtraction (take-away) calculations using the empty number line to help us.
There are practice activities attached to this learning grid, alongside examples.
Here is a link that shows you the strategy: https://youtu.be/K28iV9LjlkQ Option 1: 2-digit – 1-digit calculations crossing a decade (e.g. 27 – 9 = ?)
Option 2: 3-digit – 3-digit calculations (e.g. 234 – 172 = ?) Option 3: 4-digit – 3-digit calculations.
Make a boardgame to practice your subtraction skills! Play with someone in your house.
Spelling Talking & Listening Maths
Pick 8 words from your spelling sheet. Complete one activity from the spelling sheet to practise your spelling words.
Watch Newsround with a member of your household. Can you write 3 quiz questions for each other?
We are going to be revising how to calculate area (the space inside a shape).
There are practice activities attached to this learning grid.
Here is a link to show the strategy: https://youtu.be/ERvfiEIVhQk
Option 1: Count the grid squares to find out the area of the shapes in cm².
Option 2: Use your timestables to help you to find the area of the squares and rectangles in cm² and m². Remember: length x width = area Option 3: Can you work out a way of calculating the area of a triangle in cm² and m²?

We have been learning how to look after our planet. Do you know how far the things you own have travelled to get to your house? Gather up 10 different pieces of food or clothing and look at their labels to see where they came from. Draw a picture of the item and write where it came from next to it. Or, print off the map below and draw the item on the country that it came from. Can you use an atlas or the internet to find which item has travelled the furthest in miles or km?

Spelling Activities
Maths: Option 1
• Count the grid squares to find out the area of the shapes in cm².
• Remember, area is the space inside a shape
4 + 4 + 4 = 12 squares
Area = 12cm²
3cm x 4cm = 12cm²
3
4
Maths: Option 2
• Use your timestables to help you to find the area of the squares and rectangles in cm² and mm².
• Remember: length x width = area
3 x 4 = 12
3cm x 4cm = 12cm²
3
4
Maths: Option 3
• Can you work out a way of calculating the area of a right-angled triangle in cm² and m²?
• Remember: length x width = area
Area of a rectangle:
4cm x 7cm = 28cm²
Can you spot a relationship between a rectangle
and a right-angled triangle. 90°
A Problem to Solve!
Project
We have been learning how to look after our planet.
Do you know how far the things you own have travelled to get to your house?

Draw a picture of the item and where it came from next to it. Or, print off the map below and draw the
item on the country that it came from.
Can you use an atlas or the internet to find which item has travelled the furthest in miles or km?
