Happy Monday from Mrs Goodwin
Wow, I can’t believe it’s here – the final two days of Year 5! For today and tomorrow, I’ve put together some activities to help you stay safe over the summer including beach safety and what to do in an emergency. Plus some fun learning activities too. Well done for all your hard work over the last 4 months when life has been rather weird and indeed the whole of Year 5. You have been amazing and it has been a pleasure to see you develop and adapt to everything that has been thrown at you this year. Your enthusiasm for learning, care for those around you and attitude to life in general shows that you are going to be the BEST Year 6 year group EVER! Enjoy the next two days and don’t forget to email us. Most of all, have a brilliant summer. Take care, stay safe, have fun and we’ll see you in September.

Geography: I-Spy Book
Have you used i-spy books before? My children used to love them. Below are a selection they collected.
The idea is that you use them as a spotter book when you are out and about. Certain items are harder to spot than others and therefore worth more points. Here are some pages from our books:
Each book has about 50 pages of things you can spot, divided into various categories. On each page, it lists items to spot, shows an image, gives a description of this item and tells you how many points it is worth. There is also a space to tick and to write the date you spotted it.
Now over to you to create your own I-Spy book to use over the summer. Think of places you might go. •What is the item called? •Show a picture. •Describe the item or explain what it is for •How many points is it worth? •Leave a space for the date and a tick. •See my example on the next page
