Class 5
January 2021
As you are aware, the government has asked parents and carers to keep their children at home, wherever possible, and asked school to remain open only for those children who absolutely need to attend. The government’s guidance states, ‘We encourage parents to consider the spirit of the lockdown when making their decision … and Key Worker parents and carers should keep their children at home if they can.”
As a result, Walford Nursery & Primary School remains open for all those children who have had their attendance confirmed by Ms George.
The times of the school day have changed to 8.30am – 3.00pm.
All children must use the double gates on to the playground to be dropped off and picked up each day.
For those children attending school, Breakfast Club (7.45am – 8.30am) and After School Activity Club (3.00pm – 5.30pm) are still available but you must book at least 24 hours in advance.
For those children at home, there is a comprehensive Remote Learning plan in place.
We will continue to utilise Showbie to share work and provide feedback. Alongside this, there will be daily live lessons on Zoom and we will deliver the Year 5 curriculum.
Mrs Hanham will send an email each evening with a detailed plan for the day ahead, including timings for live lessons and all activities on offer.
The Government has stated that children in KS2 should be provided with at least 4 hours remote education each day, including live lessons, recorded lessons and time to complete tasks. The timetable below ensures that Walford have met this expectation, however, we are more than aware of the demands of remote learning at home so please continue to do as much or as little as you wish – there is no pressure to complete everything! We would, however, really appreciate all children joining the live lessons where possible, as this provides the daily teaching and the opportunity for the children to stay connected as a class.
The timetable for Remote Learning in Class 5 looks like this (but can change if appropriate):
9.00am - 10.15am: Lesson 1: Zoom
Morning Brainteasers – a bit of fun!
Morning Register
Time to complete independent activities
10.30am - 10.40am: Independent Reading
10.45am - 11.45am: Lesson 2: Zoom
Class Story
Time to complete independent activities
11.50am - 12.10pm: PE / Physical Activity
1.00pm - 1.10pm: Times Table Rock Stars
Spelling Shed
1.15pm - 3.00pm: Lesson 3: Zoom
Afternoon Register
Time to complete independent activities
Please see daily emails and Showbie for further information.

Creative Afternoon:
Logic, Decomposition and Preserving: Code Breakers
In this activity, you will become code breakers by solving a series of codes related to the first verse of a poem by Roald Dahl.
1) Look at the Code Breaking activity worksheet. This is the only information that you have so you will have to try to decipher the code as best you can.
Hint: numbers represent letters of the alphabet.
2) Once you crack the jumbled up code, you will need to reorder it. You will have to use your knowledge of rhyme to decipher the first verse of a poem by Roald Dahl.
More ideas to try:
1) Can you challenge yourself to punctuate the poem verse?
2) Can you create your own code using your favourite poem or lyrics of a pop song or maybe a coded message? Can you get a family member to decrypt your message?
I look forward to seeing what you produce! Remember to keep in touch on Showbie or via my email address.

E-Safety Board Game
Using the attached template, create your own E-Safety board game.
Safe / Unsafe Cards
As players move around the board, they might land on a 'Safe' or an 'Unsafe' square. At this point, they should pick up the relevant card and read the information on the back, following the instructions given.
When making your game, add appropriate information to the back of each card.
For 'Safe' cards, your might write "You asked an adult before using the Internet. Move forward two spaces" or "You use a safe search engine for children to find information online. Go forward three spaces".
For 'Unsafe' cards, you might write "You were unkind to a friend online. Go back three spaces" or "You gave away some personal information in an online form. Go back four spaces".
You might wish to add extra rules, such as 'If you roll a 6, you get an extra turn' or 'If your counter lands on the same space as another player, go back three spaces'.
Have fun playing your game with your family! Who will reach the centre of the board first?

Creative Afternoon:
Algorithms, Logic and Debugging: 2D Shape Drawing
In this activity, you will follow an algorithm to draw pictures constructed from 2D shapes. The algorithms (instructions) you follow will include errors (mistakes) and you will use logical reasoning to detect and correct these.
1) Look at the algorithm on the left of the 2D Shape Drawing worksheet. This algorithm is made up of a sequence of instructions to create a picture of a house. On the right is how you would like the house to look. However, you suspect there might be some mistakes in the algorithm. Your task is to use logical reasoning to work through this algorithm to detect and correct any errors – to debug it.
2) To help detect and correct any errors, draw out each step of the algorithm. Read each step of the algorithm and draw it on a separate piece of paper.
3) Read the algorithm from the 2D shape Drawing Worksheet and follow the steps.
4) After drawing each step, check that what you have drawn from the algorithm matches the picture. If it does then move on to the next step; if it does not then debug the algorithm.
More ideas to try:
1) Can you create a simple drawing made from 2D shapes and then write the algorithm for this drawing? Purposefully include three mistakes in your algorithm for a member of your family to debug.
I look forward to seeing what you produce! Remember to keep in touch on Showbie or via my email address.

Internet Safety Rules
Amazing Fact
When 400 scientists, engineers, and academics were asked what was the greatest invention ever, there were three popular answers – the wheel, the printing press and the World Wide Web (the Internet). The overall winner was the World Wide Web.
We have to make sure we stay safe and sensible when we are online.

HELLO MUSIC MAESTROS! Welcome the final week of MUSIC this term.
Listening – Keep Britain Tidy
Back in the 1970’s – 1980’s there was a government campaign to Keep Britain Tidy! This was our slogan back then. Click on the link below and watch this old advert from the 1970’s. Listen to the powerful message the song is trying to put across.
Activity:
Write down any phrases/words that influences your thoughts about littering, (these phrases may come in useful later).
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nl7FmbrMwjc&t=152s
Why do you think we still have a litter problem today?
What would be a good slogan for today’s littering? Write down your slogan.
Activity:
Watch David Attenborough in this short documentary. Listen to the music as David passionately explains about the devastating effects pollution has on our beautiful oceans. While you watch, make a note of anything that David says that is powerful and note how you FEEL about the film, (this will come in useful in the next activity).
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xLx4fVsYdTI
Questions:
Why was this music included, surely the commentary is enough?
How does the music impact on this subject?
COMPOSITION/RHYTHM - RAP
Listen to these primary school children rapping about climate change.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kuR7VN_Q06g
- Compose a rap – You could work in pairs or small group (social distancing still applies)
Now that have been inspired, have a go at writing your own Rap about littering and how it affects everything in the environment. Use your phrases, words and feelings to influence your composition. Don’t forget to give it a title.
Composition structure
1st verse, a chorus (known as hooks) and a 2nd verse.
- Add a backing track (It will probably help if you listen to this while you write your rap lyrics)
Click on the link below to use a backing track for your rap. You don’t need to fill the whole track; you can fade it out when your rap is complete. You can research your own backing track, but please have an adult with you whilst you search.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6peZYh3ohRE
- Record your composition – this is the FUN part! 😊
You can audio record or video record, either way works. Ask someone to help you with this, that way you can concentrate on the performance rather than all the tech.

Creative Afternoon
Decomposition: Hand Jive Sequencing
In this activity, you will create hand clapping, hand tutting (see videos attached) or hand jive sequences of movements. You will break the sequence of actions down into parts and in so doing will be decomposing.
Basic Tutting moves www.youtube.com/watch?v=cBu3mTyjqho
Simple tutting www.youtube.com/watch?v=axpDFvUz8Eo
Clapping www.youtube.com/watch?v=tXEhm3qVHCc
Hand jive www.youtube.com/watch?v=n5FXpc1nPr0
Clapping patterns explained www.youtube.com/watch?v=6k6J1jdQY_w
1) Watch a sequence of hand movements; this could be a hand jive or tutting moves or clapping sequence (see videos for ideas).
2) Recreate the sequence without watching it again.
3) Can you break the sequence down into parts (decompose it) in order to teach it to someone effectively?
4) Use the attached Sequence Design sheet to record your sequence. It might be helpful to record each part, testing it out and debugging (fixing) it.
More ideas to try:
1) Photograph or record each part of your sequence and create a mini-tutorial.
2) Can you spot any repeated moves and how you could use a ‘repeat command’?

Creative Afternoon:
Algorithms and Decomposition: 3D Building Blocks
In this activity, you will create a simple model and then take photos to create instructions (an algorithm) for others to try and recreate your model. By removing one block at a time, you will be decomposing the problem into manageable steps.
1) Use ten random building blocks to create a model. You could use Lego, wooden blocks, books, cardboard boxes or anything else suitable that you find around your house (see the attached example sheet).
2) Once finished, photograph the completed model.
3) Take one brick off your model and re-photograph the model plus the removed brick next to it. Repeat the process until all of the bricks have been removed – each time you should just include the last removed block and clear away the rest.
4) Arrange your pictures in the reverse order that you took them in, so that they start with the photo of two blocks and end up with a completed model. Label the pictures in numerical order.
5) Give your algorithm to someone else to follow to recreate the model.
More ideas to try:
1) Try to write the instructions rather than just use photographs.
2) Can you break down the task of getting ready for school into smaller parts (having breakfast, having a wash, brushing teeth, getting dressed etc.)?
3) Create an algorithm to enable someone to recreate a simple drawing such as a house or smiley face.

Digital Footprint
A digital footprint is a trail of ‘footprints’ that you leave behind you every time you go online. Most of the websites you visit will record your visit by taking a note of your IP (Internet Protocol) address. This is a set of numbers, which is unique to your computer.
Think about the ways you use the Internet:
- Do you visit websites?
- Do you message friends?
- Do you download music or post photographs?
Complete your digital footprint (attached) by adding all the ways you use the Internet, including what websites you visit regularly. Compare your digital footprint with your friends and family.

Creative Afternoon: Computing
Abstraction and Algorithms: Shopping Lists
In this activity, you will learn to identify the ingredients you need to make a cake and create a shopping list. In doing so, you will develop your skills of abstraction and algorithms.
1) Look through cookbooks, websites or magazines to find recipes. Choose between two or three recipes that look fun.
2) Alternatively, use the recipes on the attached worksheet.
Recipe 1: Challenging.
Recipe 2: More Challenging.
Looking at the method section of the recipe only, write a list of ingredients for your shopping list.
More ideas to try:
1) Discuss the quantities of ingredients needed and do an imaginary online shop:
- How much money would you need?
- How much change would you get form £10?
2) Try out your recipe with the help of an adult. Make sure that you weigh and measure the ingredients carefully.
3) Abstract the equipment needed rather than the ingredients and write a list of what you will need.
4) Investigate the science of baking with the help of an adult. Simply try mixing a teaspoon of baking powder into a cup of hot water to make a chemical reaction. When you add hot water to baking powder, the water reacts with the acid of the baking powder to produce carbon dioxide bubbles. As long as the baking powder is fresh, you will definitely produce bubbles!
5) Create your own “famous chef” instructional video on how to bake a cake.

The RSPB are once again teaming up with the Cameron Bespolka Trust to bring you Wild Art 2020, and this year it’s even bigger! They are on the lookout for talented young artists to enter their exciting competition.
Your task is to create a piece of art inspired by nature – let your imagination run wild! There are two categories to choose from this year:
- Real Life: entries using the more traditional approach of paints, pastels, acrylics, pens or pencil.
- Go Wild: for those of you who want to ‘go wild’ in every sense of the word. To enter this category, experiment with textiles, sculpture, recycled and eco-friendly materials, collages – anything goes!
You can follow the link to the website to see some of last year’s winning entries: https://www.rspb.org.uk/fun-and-learning/for-kids/rspb-kids-competitions/wild-art/?channel=paidsearch&gclid=CjwKCAjwi_b3BRAGEiwAemPNU0MMSdcGaiBsMQKqmzBUdDtmCxdUtvdCyFmkKL0bNQxlRTCKX6du5BoCgI8QAvD_BwE
Prizes
For each category, the winner of each age group will receive an art gift voucher worth £100. There are also RSPB runner-up prizes for each category and age group too, so plenty of chances to WIN! The winning, runner-up and highly commended artwork will be displayed at The Society of Wildlife Artists Natural Eye exhibition from 28 October to 8 November 2020.
A special Richie Richardson award (and £100 book voucher) will be given for the most accurately drawn animal. The winning and runner-up artwork will also be printed in Wild Times, Wild Explorer or Wingbeat magazine.
Send a picture of your completed artwork to me via Showbie or email and I will enter it for you!

Creative Afternoon:
HELLO MUSIC MAESTROS! Welcome to another fabulous week of MUSIC 😊
We’re very excited! Over the past few weeks, friends of Encore - children, young people and adults – have recorded themselves playing ‘All You Need Is Love’ by the Beatles. Now, all the separate recordings have been put together to make one ‘virtual’ performance. Look closely and you might spot some your teachers or Wider Opportunities tutors! Have a listen. What do you think?
- ‘All You need Is love’ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yW3WC5bYrAY
Appraising – How many instruments can you name? There are a few that you may not recognise. Can you guess what they are? Look at the credits to see if you’re correct!
Listening - There’s something very special about singing in a choir. Have a listen to the PS22 Chorus. The children are Year 6s from a primary school in Staten Island, New York.
- ‘Don’t Stop Believin’’ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68Z6bj3YZJ4&list=PLCADD56F3ED27E59B&index=55
The song was originally performed by the American rock band ‘Journey’ released in the USA in 1981. It has appeared in many films and TV series. A cover was made for the musical show ‘Glee’ which has made it very popular. The children are joined by Steve Augeri, lead singer of band. What does he say about singing at the end of the video? Do you agree?
Appraising – Listen to the original version of the song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1k8craCGpgs
Here are some questions about ‘Don’t Stop Believin’’
- Do you like the song? Why, Why not?
- What can you hear?
- What is the style of the music?
- How is the song put together? Choose from these parts of a song: chorus, pre-chorus, instrumental, introduction, verse. You might like to get someone you live with to help you.
HINT: A pre-chorus is a part of song that comes between a verse and the chorus. It’s often used if the verse and chorus are quite different from each other. Answer below.
Song – Now it’s your turn! Time to raise your voice! Don’t forget those dance moves.
- ‘Raise My Voice! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=szmKrOu0V4w&feature=emb_logo
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh. (x 2)
Got something to say, got a difference to make,
A part I can play and a role I can take,
I believe in myself, express how I feel,
I like who I am and I’m keepin’ it real.
Raise my voice, make a noise,
’Cos we’re all havin’ fun with it. (Fun with it.)
Can’t you see, this is me
And it’s OK to go for it. (Go for it.)
Raise my voice, make a noise,
’Cos we’re all havin’ fun with it. (Fun with it.)
Can’t you see, this is me
And it’s OK to go for it.
Makes me wanna sing!
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh. (x2)
I want to be strong, live long and be safe.
My generation has something to say,
So much to learn, enjoy and achieve.
I reach for my goal to be all I can be.
Raise my voice, etc.
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh. (x 2)
(Chanted) BULLYING? NO!
WORK TOGETHER? YES!
HIDE MYSELF? NO!
BE ME? YEAH!
Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh. (x 2)
Strong side by side, we lift those who fall,
Stand by our friends and we hear when they call.
Let’s all make a change, all play our part,
It takes you and me, and here’s where it starts:
Raise my voice etc.
Composing – Composer Luciano Berio uses the voice in unusual ways to create a piece of music. The singer has to mutter, gasp, laugh, whine and go through a range of emotions from tense to dreamy to bewildered. Many people have also experienced a rollercoaster of emotions over the past few months. In this activity you will compose your own 'Lockdown Sequenza' for voice.

Music from Mrs West
Listening
Most colleges in America have marching bands. Disneyland’s All-American College Band goes beyond marching to incorporate some fantastic rhythmic moves to reflect the mood of the different sections of the music. Can you name all the instruments in this clip? Can you spot any players who are doubling (when they play more than one instrument and switch between them)?
American College Band: Star Wars https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGyFrEcPYlI
The Star Wars music has different sections or movements. Which is your favourite? Describe the mood of the music; is the music trying to tell a story? Think about how the composer uses pitch, tempo, dynamics, rhythm and so on.
Now choose a contrasting section. How is the music different from your favourite part? How many reasons can you think of?
Quiz
We all love a quiz! Guess the movies these theme songs belong to. You could split this into a couple of sections as it is quite a long quiz. Enjoy!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HI49yUqcMH0
Music Theory
You will probably have seen a musical stave (known as a staff in America). Here are two videos for you to watch and join in with to help you learn about the lines and spaces on a stave:
After watching this video, you’ll soon remember the names of the music notes.
- Lines and spaces, baby! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lXF-AcYbv0
- Try this note name quiz to see how well you have learnt the note names
https://www.classicsforkids.com/games/note_names.php
There are several elements of music. Musical experts have differing opinions about just how many elements there are. But they all agree that dynamics is one of them. Watch this video to learn just what a difference dynamics make to the music we play and listen to.
- Elements of music: Dynamics https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f96k2siTTpA
Song
This is a song called ‘Just Sing!’. Could you add some actions or dance moves to match this happy tune? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ut5_ZaEAS3s

Creative Afternoon: Art
This week we have an Art themed week, kindly put together by Mrs Drake:
Investigating Paul Klee
‘The Goldfish’ 1925
Look at the picture. What effect does the dark background have? There are lots of fish, how do you think the other fish feel about the goldfish? What makes the goldfish stand-out? What techniques you think Klee might have used to create the goldfish painting?
Read the following link with information about this picture http://www.artchive.com/1925/klee.html
If you have them you could use wax crayons or oil pastels to cover the whole page in a mix of bright colours, then cover the page with black oil pastel so there’s no colour seen. Using a paperclip that has been unravelled, scratch at the page to make a shape and the colour will be revealed. Remember to be safe when using this!
Or you could create a drawing with bright coloured wax crayon or oil pastels, where there are some white bits left. Using a black water colour, brush over the page to create the background – the oil should resist the paint and show up.
If you don’t have any of these, no problem, simply using colouring pencils, felt tips, paints, sharpies, whatever you have that can be used to create colour and away you go. You could even have a go at creating a piece on the following free app on an ipad, https://tayasui.com/sketches/ or on your computer if you have a program for art already on it.
We have been creating different types of art using Klee’s styles. Pick your favourite piece and tell me why your prefer it? Which was the easiest to create and why? Which has the nicest effect and what makes it good?
I look forward to seeing what you produce! Remember to keep in touch on Showbie or via my email address.

‘Castle and Sun’ 1928
Look at the picture. Can you tell what the painting is? What might it look like to you?
What shapes can you see in the painting? How might Klee create art like this?
Klee used shapes to create the image of the castle and the sun. He also used colour – is that the colour of a real castle? Why would he use colours that aren’t real? Experiment with this trying to create this style and your own castle by drawing around lots of cut-out 2d shapes, first with pencil. Once you’ve created a pencil drawing with lots of shapes, you could use a crayon or pen to draw the lines. Then use pastels or paints to colour in the shapes.

Take the pencil for a walk! The ‘Senecio’ (1922) challenge
Fancy a challenge? Time yourself to do a continuous line drawing of a face for 30 seconds only. Only rule, you cannot take your pencil off the paper! You can go back over lines you have drawn or create new lines, but no lifting that pencil up! How far did you get? Then have a go for 45 seconds, then a minute, and so on. Remember it is not about finishing it quickly but have all the detail. Then colour the picture using a colour palette, like Paul Klee, warm, cold or neutral.
Want to go further now, you have had a go at slightly abstract pictures the use his ‘Senecio’ picture below and create your own version and then colour it in or paint it.
Or…
MUSIC
HELLO MUSIC MAESTROS! Welcome to another fabulous week of MUSIC
The Butterfly Song- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C41tLOxjmQg
Performing: Perform confidently and accurately on your own or with a group of other people.
- Learn the song, following instructions above.
- Try clapping the rhythm of the word, ‘grayling’ (gray-ling; minim-crotchet)
- If you have a keyboard or tuned instrument, learn to play the introduction (F G A)
- Play the notes to the rhythm of the word, ‘grayling’ (F F G G A A G G). This pattern also fits with the first two lines of part 1 (‘Butterfly tell me where you come from, butterfly tell me where do you go?’) and part 2 (‘Colour my wings like yours and I’ll fly to you, soft as silk and lighter than air’)
- Experiment by playing these notes (F G A) with other rhythms such as, ‘swallow tail’ and ‘painted lady’ and play along at the appropriate place in the video. Can you sing and play at the same time?!
Cross-curricular links
Following on from our music and art work last week, you can design your own butterfly now you have sung and played about many types. Fold a piece of A4 paper in half and across the centre of the paper where the fold is, draw one butterfly wing. Cut around your drawing then fold the paper out and you will have both wings. Colour your butterfly like one you have seen flying in your garden.
I look forward to seeing what you produce! Remember to keep in touch on Showbie or via my email address.

Creative Afternoon
RAINFORESTS
Throughout the week, you will have learned a lot about the rainforests and why they are so important to our lives, animals and plants that live there and people all over the world! Today… your mission is to create a persuasive poster to inform people of how we can SAVE OUR RAINFORESTS!
https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p003vpd7 Watch this short clip to remind you of our wonderful rainforests and why we must protect them!
One of the big issues that is killing our rainforests is the increased rate of deforestation… there are many reasons that this happens!
-to create fields for farming cattle or growing crops
-to produce wood to make furniture
-to produce wood pulp to make paper
-to create space for housing
Here is a time lapse of a rainforest in Bolivia which shows just how destructive over-deforestation can be!
But what can we do?
-buy certified wood products
-use recycled paper or use scrap paper
-cut down on printing
-buy soy products from sustainable sources
On your poster, you need to include…
-a catchy slogan- e.g. Rescue our Rainforests
-ways that we can save our rainforest.
-colour
-images to make it exciting (need to be relevant).
I look forward to seeing what you produce! Remember to keep in touch on Showbie or via my email address.
