Tuesday TTRS results

A fantastic battle has been seen on TTRS on Tuesday.

I asked you to compete boys vs girls and what a battle it was!

With some amazing scores from both teams! And a fantastic increase in players from all classes, I am very happy to announce the winners are the Girls!

A fantastic effort from all!

Next week the battle continues! We will be competing against year 6 between Monday 9am and Wednesday 12pm. Keep up the practise over the weekend because as some will know, I really like beating year 6 (and Mr J!).

Well done to all who participated!

All the best,

Mr L

 

Year 5 Home Learning Thursday 14th May – Day 28

Dear Parents and Year 5’s,

The engagement of year 5 home learning has been amazing so far!

Please bear in mind the following:

  • These activities are a guide for what you might work through with as a year 5 child.
  • You may wish to complete additional work using the links provided on the school website or suggestions on the NJS Home Learning information page in the Home Learning books.
  • If the activities provided are too challenging or too much for your child, please adapt the work or amount that you do. There is no obligation to complete every activity set each day. Sometimes the tasks may take too long – don’t feel as though you have to complete them all that day, you can always catch up tomorrow! Likewise some of the tasks set are designed to be completed across the week – we have tried our best to emphasise this on the slides!
  • TTRS and learning off by heart times-tables, general reading, spelling patterns previously sent home are all also very important – these can be completed across the week to suit.

All three teachers are looking forward to seeing your work – please feel free to email any work you have completed to us so we can look at it. Also let us know if you would like any work sharing as we can publish it on our school website (the year 5 page) so other children in the year group can see what you have completed.

Make the most of this extra time at home to enjoy and learn things you wouldn’t normally have time for.

Stay safe and keep smiling!

Love Miss H, Mr M and Mr L x

Bike component naming activity for all pupils

Hello all of Newport Junior School

I have noticed over the past few weeks that more and more people are getting out on their bikes!

This is Fantatstic! I myself love biking and i am really pleased to see everyone out enjoying it.

I wanted to create a short activity to develop some learning off this exciting activity. Attached is a short PowerPoint helping you learn and label the different parts found on a bike.

Have a go and see how much you already know!

You can produce as much or as little as you like. If you would like to share anything you have done please feel free to send anything to myself on elliot.lawson@taw.org.uk

follow the link here Bike Bonanza label parts

Please be aware there is no expectation for this activity to be completed, participation is fully optional. If you do not wish to print the sheet try taking it in turns to point at a part of the bike and see if you can name it.

All the best,

Mr Lawson

Dear Parents and Year 5s,

We hope you had a brilliant bank holiday weekend and took some time to celebrate and reflect on the 75th anniversary of VE day. It was amazing to see the preparation and celebration across NJS, if you have not managed to watch the NJS celebrationvideo please take a look and keep an eye out for those year 5 stars. If you have, its always worth seeing again!

The engagement in our home learning has been amazing so far!

Chocolate challenge

A couple weeks ago at the start of our chocolate challenge I gave any willing volunteers a task to complete around chocolate.

I asked them to research the manufacturing of chocolate from ‘Bean to Bar’. They were then asked to make a story board to demonstrate the processes.

The participation from all years was brilliant! It was a difficult decision to find the best from year 3 / 4 and year 5 / 6. I did manage this, and I focused  on the fantastic use of technical vocabulary.

I am happy to announce the winners of the challenge and their own height in chocolate are.

Brooke Blakemore – 4J

Toby Collins 5H (His example is below)

Congratulations to all who participated!!!

 

 

Chocolate Manufacturing challenge

Chocolate challenge week. Lets make sure we know where it comes from!

I have announced today that all pupils can compete in a competition to help understand the manufacturing (making) process involved around chocolate.

I would like children to research the process involved, which turns a cocoa bean into the wonderful thing that is a chocolate bar.

With this information I would like a story board completed showing the process in picture form as well as a description of what is happening.

All information is on the story board sheet.

There is a prize for the best from year 3 and 4 and the best from year 5 and 6. each winner will receive their height in chocolate!!!

Please ( follow link below) print or collect the story board sheets from Mr Lawson and return to his classroom by next Monday (9th).

I can not wait to see these exciting story boards.

5L website builders

Good morning,

As I have previously mentioned, as part of our topic and ICT work we have been creating websites. While the technology tried its best to stop us over two lessons we researched selected Pharaohs of Ancient Egypt and then learnt how to use this information to create websites.

I hope you will agree that these have turned out amazing, the combination of facts and media make them interesting and exciting to view. All websites have not been published due to some rather frustrating technical issues, however I will ensure these groups have the opportunity to complete these on Friday.

This was a new challenge for the children and myself but is something we hope to repeat later in the year.

Please use the links to view our created pages.

5L emails for websites

In 5L as part of our ICT and Topic lessons we are creating a website. To do this we needed to create a Gmail account in pairs.

I would like to alert parent to this fact and address that I have linked all accounts to my own school email address so I have access if needed. I have also asked children not to use this account at home to access the google.sites projects or to communicate with anyone. Please could this be supported by parents.

However I am very happy for the children to use what they have learnt at home and will be excited to see any webpages made using parents Gmail accounts.

I will give the children time to finish their pages tomorrow and look forward to seeing them published, I hope to share the webpages with yourselves as well.

All the best,

Mr Lawson
