Task 1
I would like you to access Purple Mash and complete the spelling quizzes:
- YR 5 AUT1 WK1 – quiz
- YR 5 AUT1 WK2 – quiz
- YR 5 AUT1 WK3 – quiz
- YR 5 AUT1 WK4 – quiz
Task 2
I would like you to access Purple Mash and complete the Grammar task called “Word Splits”. This is all about parts of speech including nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs. Remember nouns are names of things, verbs are doing words, adjectives describe a noun and adverbs describe how something moves. Some are quite easy but others are quite tricky! Good luck!
Task 3
For this task, I would like you to look at the picture below of a small yacht travelling through a storm. It might remind you of Michael’s journey on the Peggy Sue from our class text ‘Kensuke’s Kingdom by Michael Morpurgo! Imagine you are on board a yacht in the middle of the storm. How you would describe it using lots of rich vocabulary? You could perhaps use some adjectives or adverbs in a description. I would like you to create a mind map that will help you write a setting description for your next task. Imagine you were there by jumping into the picture, on board the yacht and think about what you can see, hear, smell and taste! Make sure you are wearing your life Jacket!
Task 4
To follow on from Task 3, I would like you to now write a setting description for this stormy scene! Refer back to the Mind map you created and include lots of lovely words and phrases. Think about how you are going to start your sentences so that they don’t all start the same way as well as making sure you try and include some of the different writing techniques we have taught you so far. I have attached a writing frame for you.
Task 5
For this task, I would like you to access Purple Mash to complete a reading task. I would like you to read chapters 1,2 and 3 of “The Leaping Hare” and complete each chapter’s quiz. You may wish to complete each quiz before you move onto to read the next chapter.

Task 2
Debate time! We have looked at a few balanced arguments this year including whether Michael should have been allowed to sail around the world and leave school for a year. You were very good at understanding both sides of the argument. This time access the ‘debate’ on Purple Mash and whether animals should be kept in zoos. There are good arguments for both sides. Use the task template to organise the main reasons for and against keeping animals in a zoo.
