Week 3

English - Friday 24th April 2020 

Well done! We have made it to Friday! Your task for today is to use your new spellings to create sentences. Can you identify the spelling pattern (Spellzoo Spellings)?  Use a dictionary (online is fine) to make sure you know what each word means. Then, place each word into a sentence, taking time to focus on spelling and the punctuation throughout the sentence.

Maths - Friday 24th April 2020

 A bit of a change today - there is no maths video. Today is the 'Friday Family Maths Challenge' so an opportunity for you all to have a go laugh!  Questions 1, 2, 3, and 4 are probably the ones most suitable for year 3 but have a go at as many or as few as you wish. Good luck and have fun!

Today's Puzzle.

English – Thursday 23rd April 2020

Today we are going to be looking at possessive apostrophes. Remember these are used when something belongs to someone.

Here are some examples:

  • Mrs Karban’s chair
  • Sarah’s ice cream
  • Mike’s bicycle

The document below has two sections. In the first part, you need to edit the sentences to include a possessive apostrophe. Then, in the second part, you are rewriting sentences to include a possessive apostrophe.

Hello all. I hope you are not finding the fractions work too tough going. Remember, just do as much as you can.

Today's lesson extends the work you did yesterday and helps you to understand how to order fractions.

Today's lesson moves on to comparing fractions.  The video is quite long - just work through it slowly and do not worry if you don't get to the end. Just do as much or as little as you feel you want. Use the interactive fraction wall if it helps you.

Today's Puzzle. What is the same about these and what is different?

English – Monday 20th April 2020

To start the new term, we would like you to think of something you have done over the Easter holidays and write a diary entry for Mrs Karban and Miss Thomas to read. You may have had an Easter egg hunt, cooked something for dinner or played a game with your family. I have attached an example diary entry of Miss Thomas’s holiday for you to read through for ideas. 

Maths - Monday 20th April 2020

Welcome back to your maths home learning! In this week’s lessons you will continue to develop your understanding of fractions. Today’s lesson explores equivalent fractions (fractions that are the same as each other) and builds on the lesson you did on the Friday before Easter. It may help if you go back and look at the work you did then and you could also watch the video again from the lesson on Friday 3rd April for revision.
