Year 3 Home Learning -Term 4 Week 2

Wednesday 3^rd March

 

Welcome to Wednesday’s blog! Please send your teacher a message if you have any questions/concerns about returning to school. Here is an outline of the work we would like you to complete today:

 

Phonics

Practice your phonics knowledge by using www.phonicshero.com. Phonics Hero has fun and interactive games that build reading and spelling skills gradually and teaches the 44 different sounds. If your login is not in your child’s contact book, please message your teacher for the login details!

 

Reading

Read Chapter 4 of A Sheep Dip to India. William must make a special ointment for Chetna's injury and there's only one creature who can help him. In finding her he experiences something rather wonderful but then realises he must return to the injured Chetna. Test your understanding of Chapter 4 by completing the 2Do Quiz.

 

Spelling

Practice spelling words ending in ed, ing, er and est. Can you remember the rule when the root word ends in ‘y’? This is set as a 2Do on Purple Mash called Y2 SPR2 WK2 Quiz.

 

English

If you haven’t listened to Chapters 12, 13 and 14, watch this video to access Krindlekrax. Imagine you are Corky, thinking about Ruskin and his problems. What advice would you give him? Write a letter to Ruskin written by Corky. Watch today’s English video to read a WAGOLL and to take your through the learning.  

 

Maths

Begin by working out the four challenges in the maths starter. Don’t forget to show your working out! Then move on to Fluency, Reasoning and Problem Solving.

 

This week we will continue our learning on measurement. Today you will use take-away and finding the different to subtract different lengths. You will need to convert measurements to the same unit of length to be able to add more efficiently. How many millimetres are in a centimetre? How many centimetres are in a metre? Watch this video to help explain: https://vimeo.com/506146876

 

PSHE

Did you know that children need to be active for at least one hour every day? This hour can be made up of lots of different chunks of time and activities throughout the day. Today we would like you to make up your own fitness challenge! This will help our bodies to get fitter and our heart and lungs stronger.

 

Use the template below to create your fitness challenge. What can you do now without stopping for a break? Draw/write what you can do now and for how long/how far. Then set yourself a new challenge (this needs to be realistic and manageable!). Be creative with your ideas!

 

PE

You must be tired after completing your fitness challenge! Join Team Theme for a relaxing Yoga session. Today’s theme is around dinosaurs!
