Year 5 ‘s visit from the firefighters. By simran

Today 5m and 5d had some very special guests come to our school. They were fire figters. they taught us some very inportant things like how you should have lots of smoke alarms in you house so you know if there is a fire in the day or the middle of the night and how to keep safe if there really is a fire. They also told us about 999 calls and when to call 999, they told us about fire hazards and we looked at a picture and we had to be fire detectives and spot all the fire hazards and where you should keep a smoke alarm.
There was 4 diffrent officers and we had to rotate aroun so we could have a chat with each one and they also told us the diffren things.
And that was our day and everyone enjoyed it!

We had to rotate around the class to each   firefighter, they all talked about different scenarios.

Take a look at our pictures from today.

 

Fire Service Visits Y5!

Here are some pictures taken from todays session with the West Midlands Fire Service.

We worked in groups with the Firemen on scenarios about Road Safety, Hoax Calls, House Fires,  and Prevention of House Fires, we even used fake mobiles to pretend we were the emergency service call centre.

Division!

 Dividing is the same as repeated subtraction

To divide 96 by 6:                                                                            

                              6 |   96

                                   – 60         10  x  6                 10+6= 16

                                       36                                

                                   – 36          6   x  6

 Answer   =     16

 We know that 10 x 6 = 60 so

we subtract this from 96.  This leaves 36.

 We know 6 x 6= 36

so we can subtract this too.

 All together we have subtracted 6 a total of 16 times.

This is the same as saying

 96 ÷   6 = 16

 

 

The adventures of Lucy by Maveish

 

Lucy, who was 22, was shopping one day for some new clothes and shoes. As she went into Primark she spotted some gold high heels. She sat down and tried them on.  She thought they matched her dress that she had bought from New Look so bought the heels. She started looking for some other shoes on the top floor. On her way up to the escalators she slipped and cut her arm.

 

What should she do?

Alyan’s fantastic homework

 

This is another type of emergency service called traffic officer the people who work there they deal with breakdown or accident and gets lost on the motorway. Officers work with all emergency services. [Except for coast guard]To deal with whatever the situation is. All of them work together every day, especially when there  is a big accident on the motorway.
