Listening
Listening is the secret to discover great stories. Let’s have some fun listening lessons!
1. Meet the Plastic-Free Boy who lives in New South Wales and is your age! He feels
very strongly about freeing our oceans of plastic pollution – do you? Listen to what
Arlian has to say at https://learnenglishkids.britishcouncil.org/video-zone/plastic-
ocean-campaigner.
You may also want to play the listening comprehension games and do the activity given at
the same link.
2. So, Netizens, what safety rules do you follow when exploring the digital world? Come,
listen to a song about this at https://learnenglishkids.britishcouncil.org/video-zone/we-
the-digital-citizens. You may also want to play the games and do the activity on the same
link. Sing along the song and play it to your younger siblings.
3. The Wind in the Willows, Kenneth Grahame’s children’s classic, allows every person who has always wished animals could talk, to
dream a little more. In this amazing book, Mole, Ratty, Mr. Toad and Badger form a tight friendship and have many adventures,
together. Listen to chapter 1 of this story at http://www.loyalbooks.com/book/the-wind-in-the-willows-by-kenneth-grahame and
visualize the world Mole explores. Train your mind to concentrate, listen closely and feel pictures building out of the heard words!
You may want to listen to the whole audio book at the same link or take a copy of the novel and enjoy reading the rest of it!
4. Do you know what it means to have a growth mindset? Find out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rUJkbWNnNy4
Think about the power of ‘’yet’’. Notice how the speaker uses figurative language to talk about good and harsh times in life.
Reflect on whether you have a growth mindset or are you not there yet. Post a note in your Google Classroom or write an email to
your teacher about these thoughts.

CPE 5 Learner’s Book.

Grammar & Punctuation
3. Remember you studied modals in Grade V? Let’s revisit them once again to master them!
Let’s begin by recapping through a video tutorial at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6hPi_Q0l_E. Follow by playing some very
interesting games at these links:
https://learnenglishkids.britishcouncil.org/grammar-practice/modals-can-and-cant
https://learnenglishkids.britishcouncil.org/grammar-practice/modals-could-and-couldnt
https://learnenglishkids.britishcouncil.org/grammar-practice/modals-must-and-mustnt
Next, do the attached activity sheets and take the practice tests for ‘can & can’t’,
‘could and couldn’t’ and ‘must and mustn’t’. Score yourself by accessing the answer
keys at the above links!
Lastly, challenge yourself to do the attached worksheet titled ‘Complete the Sentence
with Modal Verbs’. Try to do it independently; it’s okay if you make mistakes or are
confused. You can take help from an elder, go back to the video to recheck the
meaning or look up the modal in a dictionary to confirm its correct usage.
The worksheet is followed by its answer key so that you can self-check and give
yourself a proud badge for doing well or a cute smiley for trying hard!

Vocabulary & Spelling
You’re in for some very interesting vocabulary and spelling activities! Keep learning new
words and their spelling, but don’t forget the ones you’re already friends with!
1. Love playing word games? Doing crosswords and solving anagrams? So, here’s a
super interesting challenge for you! Have fun completing the attached Spelling
and Vocabulary Activity Sheets (Unit 1).
You must make friends with the new words you come across; by looking up their
meaning in the school dictionary or online at
https://www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/. You may also need to use a
thesaurus for some puzzles. Use your school thesaurus or an online one at
https://dictionary.cambridge.org/thesaurus/.
4. Find the attached ‘Spelling Word List for Year 5 and Year 6’. Make sure you know how to
spell at least half of these words.
Try to review them in creative ways such as by playing hangman with these words with a friend or
sibling, having an elder take dictations, or by covering the word and writing it in the air, or better
still by having fun spelling out the word in sand or making its letters with slime or clay!!
The idea is ‘learning by doing’ - scientific research proves that our minds tend to retain
information gained in such ways much longer than done through rote memorization.
11
Also make sure you know the meaning and usage of these words. You can consult your school dictionary or https://www.merriam-
webster.com/ online.
Next, use five words from the word list in sentences of your own in your journal.
I hope you enjoyed these summer activities! And I’m sure you’ve learnt a lot on the way.
Love,
