Week 7 (18th- 22nd May)

Day 1: Publish your ‘Wanted’ poster

• Today we would like you to complete your ‘Wanted’ poster from last week.
• Take either your homemade tea-stained poster or your printed tea-stained poster and carefully, using a handwriting pen or something similar, trace over your writing.
• Do the same with your drawing of the highwayman, taking your time.
• To ensure the larger pieces of text stand out e.g. the title/ reward amount, use a black felt-tip on these parts.

Day 3: Tell us about your favourite sportsperson! (Part 1)

• Who is your favourite sportsperson? Is it a footballer, tennis player, gymnast, swimmer, F1 driver, hockey player?…the list goes on!
• Today, we would like you to research your favourite sportsperson (something you might find very easy if you know a lot about the already!).
• For footballing fans, MOTD Kickabout has some great interviews with different footballers: https://www.bbc.co.uk/cbbc/shows/match-of-the-day-kickabout
• A number of sportspeople are listed on this website here: https://primaryfacts.com/famous-sports-stars/

Once you’ve found your information,  make notes in your Home Learning book under the following headings:

• Full name
• Early Life (date of birth, where they were born, parents and siblings, where they went to school)
• Sporting achievements as a child
• Sporting career timeline (what have they achieved in their career so far?)
• Personal life now- partner/ children/ where they live

Day 4:  Tell us about your favourite sportsperson! (Part 2)

Using your notes from yesterday and the key headings, we would like you to present your information about your favourite sports personality in one of the following ways:

• Complete a ‘Sports Star Fact File’  
• Create a Power Point
• Write an information leaflet

Remember that this is an information text (our recent  non-chronological report was an example of this) and whichever format you choose, think carefully about the features that you would need to include: title, subheadings, majority written in the past tense, 3rd person (he/she), adverbials to link sentences.

Day 5: Healthy Snack Instructions writing

• We hope you enjoyed making a healthy snack this week.
• We would now like you to write a set of instructions (recipe) for how to make your healthy snack. Why not send these instructions to a friend or family member? You could email them or send them as a letter. We would love to see them too!
• The Barnard household have been trying to move away from our sweet treat baking this past week and enjoyed making Healthy Banana Bread recently.

For an example of detailed recipe instructions, open Day 5 Healthy Banana Bread Recipe IINSTRUCTIONS WAGOLL.

As a reminder of which features you need to include, check out this Day 5 Year 5 Instructions Checklist.

You could type your recipe or write it on a piece of paper (or present it in whichever way you choose!) Don’t forget to include a photo or picture of your finished snack too.
