Year 3 Home Learning Tuesday 2nd February 2021

Date: 1st Feb 2021 @ 3:25pm

Good morning Year 3. I hope you enjoyed your Monday, especially focussing on positive things :)

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 arithmetic questions and any working out that you do.

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. 4 of you have been on the spelling challenge, one of you has already completed it, wow. 5 of you have been on the number challenge and 3 of you have already completed it. Well done.

 

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

• Wiggle and dance at the end of the day.
• Thinking about the good things in our lives.
• It wasn’t pitch black when I arrived at school which was amazing!

This week is Children’s Mental Health Week. This year’s theme is Express Yourself. Expressing yourself is about finding ways to share feelings, thoughts, or ideas. This could be through art, music, writing and poetry, dance and drama, photography and film, and doing activities that make you feel good.

Each day you will be doing some activities related to Children’s Mental Health Week and hopefully it will help you to feel happy and positive.

Start your day with this song:
