Year 3 Home Learning 15th January

Date: 14th Jan 2021 @ 2:46pm

Good morning Year 3. I hope you have a happy Friday.

I hope that you enjoy the weekend and spending time at home with your family. I am going to make homemade pizzas for tea on Friday and listen to music. My favourite pizza toppings to add are pineapple and fresh chillies. Ms Hodson is looking forward to watching her little boy play his musical instruments whilst wearing his genie costume.

Well done for all of the work you have been doing. I have been so impressed with all of the work you have sent me on Seesaw.

If you are finding any of it tricky you can:

• Draw things to help you in Maths like base 10.
• Use things in your house to help with Maths like coins, counters, toys.
• Write out the times tables you need for an activity before starting it.
• Use books and the internet for ideas.
• Discuss your work with people at home when they are not busy.
• Contact the school for support.

 

Reminders

We will be doing spelling and tables tests on Monday, you could practise over the weekend.

Please keep sending me your work on Seesaw – it is so amazing to see.

Don’t forget to have a go at all 3 Sumdog challenges before they end on Sunday – so many of you have already completed them, super work.

Remember to bring your home learning book into school if you are coming in on some days.

 

 

Things that made me smile yesterday (you could write your own list too)

• The writing about Bath Time really made me laugh, there were some brilliant ideas including:

Mr Stink having a bath in the sea with a fish to clean himself and seaweed to dry himself.

Mr Stink using a diving board to get into the bath.

Mr Stink flooding the house.

Mr Stink using Annabelle’s bedding to dry himself.

 

• A squirrel decided to sit on the table outside the Year 3 classroom, I have attached a photo to this blog.

Reading

Please read out loud to somebody for 20 minutes.

Tell them what a character is thinking and feeling.

 

Spelling

Here are your spellings for this week:

careful, playful, thankful, helpful, wonderful, useless, careless, homeless, hopeless, spotless

 

You are going to create a game. You can either play against somebody at home to see who gets the most points, or you can play by yourself and time how long it takes you to get all 10 words.

Cut up 20 pieces of paper.

On 10 of the pieces – write the root words: care, play, thank, help, wonder, use, care, home, hope, spot.

On 5 of the pieces – write the suffix ful.

On 5 of the pieces write the suffix less.

Mix up and shuffle all of the pieces. Place them face down on the table.

Pick up 2 pieces, if they make a real word keep them, give yourself a point. If they do not make a real word, put them back on the table face down.

 

Writing:

Read pages 169 to 176 attached to this blog.
