Here we are now in the last week of May! We have been so impressed with the work and effort you have put into home learning over the past few weeks, and have enjoyed hearing/seeing all the other things you have been up to outside of the work that has been set: cooking; going for walks; helping your siblings; building dens; to name but a few. Keep up the brilliant work everyone!
Please ensure you use the supporting materials to help you, as well as having access to them here you can find them on Teams (P5 2019-20 > General channel > Files > Weekly Resources > 25th May).
Priority tasks should be uploaded into the appropriate Assignment.
Any additional work should be uploaded into your own ‘Personal Folder’ (P5 2019-20 > General channel > Files > Personal Folders).

This week we want you to write up the middle section of your story. Remember this is usually the longest part of any story and is where the action/events take place. Use interesting adjectives and detailed descriptions to bring your story to life. We can’t wait to read them!
Writing: Instructions (Due Friday 11th June)
Use the Procedure Targets to help you.
We would like you to write a set of instructions detailing how to make a favourite recipe. This can be a recipe for a cake, smoothie, pie, salad… anything you like! Please remember to include a title (e.g. Amy’s Awesome American Pancakes or The Best Steak Pie!), a list of ingredients (including quantities e.g. 500g of flour), a list of equipment and feel free to include some photos of the process/end product!
Please submit these by Friday 11th June into your Personal Folder on Teams, by emailing it to your teacher, or handing it in to the school office.
You can find some inspiration by visiting and exploring our P5 Kitchen! Click on objects around the room to be taken to different websites. Feel free to use one of the recipe templates or create your own.
