1 YOUR ENGLISH HOMEWORK In year 5

2 I klass 4 byggde eleverna, genom boken Small Steps, upp ett stort förråd av engelska ord inom flera olika vardagliga teman. I klass 5 övergår läxorna i större grad till att utveckla kompetensen att kunna skriva sammanhängande meningar för att göra sig förstådd i skrift. Eleverna förväntas nu kunna läsa och tillgodogöra sig instruktionerna på engelska till de olika läxorna. Det hindrar inte att du som förälder förtydligar instruktionen på svenska. Alla ska uppmuntras att använda ordlista eller internet när de behöver översätta ett ord från engelska till svenska eller tvärtom det är inte fusk utan ett verktyg i språkinlärningen! Här följer 28 läxor i engelska. Läxorna är numrerade och i veckobreven kommer det att stå när varje läxa ska vara gjord. Om någon tappar bort sitt läxhäfte finns de engelska läxorna också på hemsidan. Hör gärna av er om ert barn upplever läxorna för lätta eller för svåra, så kan jag anpassa läxan så att den blir en lagom utmaning för alla! Mvh Lena

The whale that lost its way One day Roger and Sarah went down to the beach for an early morning swim. When they came there, they saw something on the sand halfway under water. It was something very big and black, and it was absolutely still. They walked closer, and saw what it was a whale! Roger was very surprised, whales use to live out in the deep water! It was about six metres long and one metre high at its head. It must have lost its way, and got stranded on the sand. Poor thing. Sarah and Roger would do anything to save it! First of all they had to keep it cool. The sun would be too hot for it. They had to pour water over it all time. Then they must dig a channel round it so that it could lie in water. They got a lot of friends and parents to come down to the beach and they all worked hard to save Wally. That was the name Sarah gave it: Wally the Whale. They got a rope and tied it round Wally s tail. Then they tied the rope to a boat and they started to pull. Slowly Wally slid out into the sea and they untied the rope round his tail. Then he disappeared into deeper water. It looked like he waved his tail at them. Maybe he wanted to say thank you 1. Where were Roger and Sarah when they saw something big and black? 2.
