Year 3 Home Learning 27th January 2021

Date: 26th Jan 2021 @ 3:33pm

Good morning Year 3. I hope you have had a nice day today, in school we really enjoyed describing the Prime Minister’s house and we enjoyed our Art and Geography this afternoon. We are getting really good with our 8x tables as we practise every day!

Well done for the work you have done, I have been very impressed with what I have seen on Seesaw.

If you are finding any of your work 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.
Write down your working out.
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

Please keep sending me your work on Seesaw – I am so proud of you for the work I have seen so far. Today I would like you to send me a photo of your maths work including your working out (the grids).

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

You can change your school reading books whenever you need to, just let the school office know beforehand so we can get some books ready for you to collect.

Don’t forget to go on Sumdog. 22 of you have been on the grammar and spelling challenge, still only one person has completed it so far, well done to you. 17 of you have been on the related facts challenge and 3 of you have already completed it. Well done.

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

We listened to beach waves sounds and a song called Copacabana while we did our art work – I enjoyed that.
I watched a TV programme with my breakfast called Countdown. You get 9 letters and have to make words out of them, I managed to make a word which was 8 letters long so was very pleased with myself.

Reading

Please read out loud to somebody for 20 minutes.

Predict what you think is going to happen next and talk to somebody at home about it.

Spelling

Here are your spellings for this week. They are homophones. Homophones are words which sound the same but have different meanings or spellings. Some are near homophones which means they have slightly different pronunciation.

quiet, quite, bare, bear, sun, son, new, knew, night, knight

Write the long date: Wednesday 27^th January 2021

Write the title: Spelling Sentences

Choose 3 of the spelling words and write your own sentences using them. It is probably a good idea to choose the spellings you find most tricky.

Writing:

Read pages 208 – 216 of Mr Stink which are attached to this blog. This chapter is a nice one as Chloe and Annabelle spend some time together.

Mrs Winter has recorded some of the pages and put them on Seesaw for you to listen to – what a treat!

Long date: Wednesday 27^th January 2021

Title – Can I use conjunctions and exciting vocabulary?

I would like you to write some sentences about this chapter using conjunctions. Also, try to use some of the good words from the book like zoomed, honoured, announced, vagrant, hissed, fantasies, unexpectedly, nervously, slowly.

Please write at least 3 sentences with the conjunction in the middle, like this:

Mr Stink sat on an upturned plant pot while the girls put pink glittery blusher on his cheeks.

Please write at least 3 sentences starting with a conjunction, you will need a comma for these ones where you pause.

After the vagrant had given his speech, he rolled up the grubby toilet roll and put it back in his pocket.

Conjunctions: because, after, when, while, before, even though, despite, though, so, if.

Remember:

Perfect spelling

Capital letters and full stops

Beautiful handwriting

Times tables

Play on Hit The Button three times.

Practise the 8x tables.

Try to improve your score each time – my record is 36/36.

Counting

Count out loud in 8s from 0 up to 96:

Maths

Watch the video sent on Seesaw to help you with your maths. The video will remind you of the method we use in school to multiply a 2 digit number by a 1 digit number. We have done it before.

After watching the video, have a go at the questions on the worksheet – using the grid method from the video.

There are some challenge questions on the worksheet – you don’t have to do these but you can if you would like, the work you did on Tuesday might also help you.

Finally, use the answer sheet to check your answers.

Please send me a picture of your answers and working out on Seesaw.

In RE we have been looking at journeys and the church’s year – the Liturgical Calendar.

The Liturgical Calendar helps people to be close to God and Jesus as everyone celebrates the same things throughout the year, such as the birth of Jesus at Christmas and Jesus’ sacrifices for us at Lent and Easter. These celebrations remind us to love and serve God.

Write the title: Can I describe ways I love and serve God?

Make a list and draw pictures of ways that you love and serve God. Think about how you live in a way that God would want and things you do that make you a good person.

Here are some examples:

I make sure that I am kind to everybody I meet, even if it is just by giving them a smile.
I say a prayer at lunch time to thank God that I have food, water and shelter. I know that I am lucky as there are people in the world without food and water.
