Year 5 Maths Home Learning - 01/03/21 - 05/03/21
Hello everyone!
It was fantastic to see so many of you on zoom last week. Wasn’t it great being altogether and having some fun! I loved hearing your half term news and our treasure hunt game was lots of fun and I have realised how competitive you all are! Next week’s zoom call is on Thursday at 2pm when we will all celebrating World Book Day together! I’m looking forward to finding out which stories you have all chosen to share!
This will be our last week of home learning (yay!) as we will all be back in school next Monday. Please keep sending your work through to me and so that I can upload it to our Year 5 Learning Gallery. If you find anything tricky this week, don’t forget you can email me.
Have a super week, keep working hard. I can’t wait for us all to be back in our Year 5 classroom.
Please find below the Maths activities for this week!
Monday
Big ?: Can I read scales when measuring volume?
Star Words: Volume, cubic units, capacity, litres, millilitres, scales
During today’s lesson, we re going to revise what you may already now about volume and investigate reading scales. By the end of today’s lesson, you will be confident with reading scales at different intervals.
Please click here to begin today’s lesson.
I would now like you to challenge yourself to answer these reasoning and problem solving questions.
Remember to check your answers.
Tuesday
Our Warm Ups this week are going to focus on identifying regular and irregular 2D shapes.
Regular shapes = all the sides are equal and all the inside angles are equal.
Irregular shapes = does not have equal sides or equal angles.
Please watch the video clip to support you with your warm up activity.
Big ?: Can I investigate and explain cubed numbers?
Star Words: square number, squared, equal factors, product, cube number, cubed, property
During today’s lesson we will be exploring cubed units. We will investigate what we mean by cube numbers and relate this to our work on volume. By the end of the lesson, you will be able to explain, draw and find cube numbers.

Wednesday
Big ?: Can I estimate the volume of objects?
Star Words: Volume, cube, cuboid, centimetre, cubed
During today’s lesson, we will be combining our new knowledge of cubic units and our work from Monday on volume. We will work on understanding what cubic centimetre looks like in real life and have a go at estimating the volume of objects we see every day.

Friday
Please watch the video clip to support you with your warm up activity.
Big ?: Can I describe volume in cubic units?
Star Words: Volume, measure, cubed, height, length, width
During today’s lesson, we will use our knowledge from yesterday to find the volume of different shapes. We will start by looking at the three different dimensions of real life objects and then use measurements to help us find volume. By the end of the lesson, you will begin to be able to find the volume of different 3D shapes.
