How It Works
This is YOUR pack, so it can ultimately be used however you choose.

room now being your classroom too, but we think it is really important for you to keep
your brains ticking!
We hope you enjoy doing all of the activities and we would love to see the work that you
produce. All of the teachers have access to our Twitter and will check it regularly, so please
tweet us with videos and photos of the brilliant stuff you get up to! @Y5Carfield. Use the

Task One – Descriptive Writing
You are going to have a go at writing a story called ‘The ascent’. Ascend means to go up or
climb. Your characters are going to climb up a mountain. Last week, you described a mountain
which can be your setting.
This week, create your main character who is going to climb the mountain. First, come up
with some adjectives to describe them thinking about personality and appearance. If you want
to draw your character first and write adjectives around them like we did when creating our
alien this year, that is fine.
When you have done this, write a paragraph describing your main character. Try to include:
Adjectives describing your character’s appearance.
Adjectives describing your character’s personality.
A smile.
Challenge: A metaphor.Task Two – Fact File Create a fact file for a mountain. You may choose to focus on one of the biggest mountains in the world e.g. Everest, K2, Kangchenjunga, Lhotse. Or you can choose your own mountain to write about. There are some examples below:
