Monday 22nd February 

Good morning everyone. We hope you have had a restful half term and been able to do a few things that spark joy.  At the moment we know we have at least another 2 weeks of remote learning and then we will hopefully hear from our Prime Minister Boris Johnson on what the plan will be on returning to school.

Remember to email your work everyday (or every other day if your parents are working or too busy too) 

Morning

English

For the next few weeks are English work will have a more reading focus than in previous weeks. We will be looking at the story 'Into the Forest' by Anthony Browne. Some of you may be familiar with this story already. In today's lesson you will be engaging with the text. Follow the link below. 

https://classroom.thenational.academy/lessons/to-engage-with-a-text-6tj3jd?activity=video&step=1

Send me :

- Your predictions about the text from looking at the front cover

- A mind map or your own way of showing features of fairy tales

Maths

In Maths we are moving onto statistics this week, which is ways of showing data or information. Today you will be having a recap on Tally Charts. You should have the corresponding (matching) sheet in your pack that was posted just before half term. 

Watch the lesson on the link below:

PE

Gymnastics

For the next couple of weeks we are continuing with gymnastics. This week we have a special treat as Vicky has sent us a video for our lesson! 

TTRockstars

Well done to 3T for winning the last battle before half term. I have set another battle for this week! Come on 3H!  It was a close battle last time! 

Today we would like you to go on and practise your timetables for at least 15 minutes.

Thursday 11th February

Well done everyone you have made it to the end of the term! We know it hasn't been easy learning from home for the past few weeks but we are VERY proud of you and how hard you are working. I know when I have spoken to a lot of your parents they have been really proud of you too! Keep up the good work and enjoy a rest over half term (one week) and  do things that make you happy. I'll look forward to hearing about it when we return.

Todays work

Morning

Maths

Today we are doing our last lesson on money. You are looking at giving change. This is a very important life skill.

https://vimeo.com/499227948https://vimeo.com/499227948

English

We have finished our English unit so today we would like you to create a shop using toys and things in your house to link with our work on money. We would like you to create a poster for your shop with little descriptions of what you sell using adjectives.  e.g Can you believe this soft, brown teddy is only £5? What an amazing price! 

Once you have created your poster you could play in your shop and write shopping lists and practise the skills you have developed with money. Giving the correct money, giving change etc.

Take some photographs if you can so we can add them to the website so your friends can see you.

Afternoon

Science

This afternoon we would like you to complete the science investigation from last week. Looking at 'can a magnet still attract and object through a variety of materials?' I know a few of you got a little confused with the sheet last week so don't worry about that. Today all we would like to see is your predictions and the results. Remember to keep it a fair test we should only be changing one thing (in this case the middle material). So you should use the same magnet for each material and the same small magnetic object.

e.g. 

Conclusion

What do you think about your findings? Did anything surprise you? If you were to do the investigation again would you change anything to see if the results changed? 

Myon

Log on and do 15 minutes of Myon reading. Remember you can log on to myon and ttrockstars at any point over the half term if you are feeling a little bored. 

Enjoy the half term break.

 From all the Year 3 team

Wednesday 10th February

A big well done for those of you who completed you internet safety work yesterday. It is really important that we keep safe online and know who and what information we should trust and what we should tell the trusted adults in our life. 

Morning

English

Today you will be developing reading for pleasure through personal reflection. It is really important that you find text's that you enjoy. We don't all enjoy the same food so why would we enjoy the same books? Do you know the genre of texts that you enjoy? Do you prefer texts that entertain or inform? Are there any topics you particularly enjoy reading? 

Afternoon

History

If you did not get round to doing your Gods and Goddesses work from yesterday because you also had your internet safety to complete please do that today.

PSHE

Please also complete pages 7-8 in your journal. Think about how are you unique? (what hobbies, skills, likes and dislikes do you have that might be different to other people). What are your dreams for the future? 

Think of 3 targets that will help you achieve that drea, (work hard at maths, practise my singing etc)

Tuesday 9th February

Good morning. Well done to 3T who are currently winning the TTRockstars battle. Well done to Adebola, Ruben, Nathaniel, Matthew, Victory, Dolcie, Nicolas, Evie, Finlay and Bemenet for contributing to your classes score! Come on everyone else you class need your support!

Monday 8th February 

Good morning. I hope you all had a fantastic weekend and did something that makes you happy. I went on a long walk with my little boy even though it was pouring with rain. We put on our wellies and coats and he splashed in the BIGGEST puddles he could find!Our hands were freezing cold by the time we got home but we soon warmed up. I'd love to hear if you did anything that made you happy this weekend.

Miss Glaysher

Friday 5th February

Good morning and happy Friday. Well done for the excellent work that has been sent in. Remember to watch the celebration assembly that Mr Litten will send out today to see if you have been selected as the worker of the week .

Todays learning

Morning

English

Today we will be looking at planning the climax of the story.

Afternoon

Art

Today we are continuing our work on portraits. Today you will be practising drawing noses and mouths. Remember you should be drawing with a pencil so you can control the pressure of your lines.

As last week look carefully in a mirror to see the shapes and smaller details 

Lips

- The line between your lips is the darkest you should draw this line first. 

- Then lightly draw the upper and lower lip line.

- Then slightly shade your lips. The top lip is often in shade so is darker than your top lip

As in our art lessons you should sketch around 4 or 5 sets of lips to really practise the skills and trial different shapes, pressures and skills. They should not be perfect at this point.

Noses

Noses are quite difficult to draw I know I really find them hard to draw. 

- I would suggest drawing shadows rather than the nose itself.

- Look at the hollows of your nostrils and the shadows either side and beneath.

Again practise 4 or 5 noses and try different skills and see which you like best.

TTRockstars

Yesterday I forgot to mention you should go on TTRockstars.

3T are currently winning the battle so come on 3H!!!!

Thursday 4th February 

Good morning everyone. Some fantastic work coming in from you over the past few days. Well done.

Morning

English

Today you will be writing the second part of your build up that you started yesterday.

https://classroom.thenational.academy/lessons/to-write-the-second-part-of-the-build-up-of-a-narrative-cmuk4c

Maths

We are continuing with money in maths. Today you will be looking at pounds. Can you find money around your house and count it? (make sure you ask an adult first)

https://vimeo.com/497344241

Then complete the sheets

Afternoon

Science

Today we are continuing with our work on magnets. Can you answer these questions to an adult or older brother or sister. Can you remember facts about magnets? What are the ends called? What is it called when they pull together? Push apart? What are magnets attracted too? How are these materials similar?

Today we would like you to plan a science investigation using the planning proforma (as below). I have completed most of it already for you so you just need to complete the final sections.

You need a very small magnetic object for this to work like a paperclip and some different objects to use as the layer in between the magnetic object and the magnet. This might be paper, a table, fabric, tissue. Whatever you can find around your house. 

You have to investigate which objects does the magnet work through and which does it not work through?

So you will place the small magnetic object (e.g paperclip) on the top of the middle layer (which you will change) and the magnet on the bottom.  Collect a selection of middle layer materials and then make your predictions on your sheet. Which will work and which will not?

You will be carrying out the investigation for next weeks Science lesson so keep this sheet safe. If you wish to get ahead you may carry out the investigation this week.

Wednesday 3rd February

Good morning everyone. It was nice getting to speak to a few of you yesterday and I will be calling a few more of you today. 

Here is today's work

English

Today you will writing up the first section of your build up using the skills you have been practising the past few days.

PSHE

This week is Children's mental health week. The theme is all about express yourself.

Watch this assembly all about mental health week if you have time

https://www.childrensmentalhealthweek.org.uk/news/watch-our-children-s-mental-health-week-assembly-with-bafta-kids-and-oak-national-academy/

Complete the draw your feelings activity like they complete in the assembly.

Here is a short video if you can't watch the full assembly above

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STdJ__8ORyE&feature=youtu.be

Now I'd like you to do something that makes you feel good and a way to express yourself. So you might want to dance around your living room in your favourite clothes or draw a picture somewhere quiet or even write yourself a song. Send me a picture of how you are looking after your mental health. 

If you have time also complete pages 4-6 in your journal. Think of occasions when you have shown strength, been brave and how you can show acts of kindness.

Tuesday 2nd February

Good morning everyone. Thank you for all the work you have been sending in. However, I was a little sad yesterday as I only got a few photographs of people doing PE. I know for some of you this might be tricky as you don't have enough space. If you do have the space it is important to keep your body moving and active. This week is children's mental health week and we will be doing a little more work on that tomorrow during our PSHE work. Moving our bodies is a good way to keep your brain happy too. 

English

Today you will be writing a range of sentence types which you will use in the build up of your fiction text that will entertain the reader. 

History

Look at these images (there is a copy in your pack). What can you infer (guess from looking at clues) about the Ancient Greeks from looking at these images? These inferences might be true or false it doesn’t really matter at this point. This lesson is about looking at sources of historical evidence and looking at what information this might give us. Label things you can see around the pictures and write any questions you think about the Ancient Greek times from looking at clues in the pictures.

e.g. Was it hot in Ancient Greece as he is wearing sandals? 

TTRockstars

Log on to TTRockstars and play for 15 minutes . I have started a new battle which class will win this time? 

Monday 1st February

Good morning everyone, Miss Glaysher here this week. I hope you are all ok and ready for another week of hard work. So today is the first day of February and hopefully closer to getting back to school as all the adults in school miss you. I will be ringing around this week and look forward to hopefully getting to speak to you as well as the adults in your house. 

English

Today we are continuing the work on the man on the moon. You will be looking at vocabulary to use in the build up of a narrative.  You will be planning the build up of the story which follows on from the introduction of the story last week.

Remember: Show not tell

Send me:

- Your ideas about Lily

- Your ideas about the old man

- Your sentence using the ideas from the videos using show not tell. 

Maths

Today we are moving onto divide by 8. Don't worry if you are struggling to count in 8s. Most of the children at school last week did too. We wrote a list of the numbers in the 8 times table and practised throughout the day. You can do this too and maybe practise covering up a couple of the numbers and see if you can remember them.

1) Watch the lesson video

https://vimeo.com/480761847

2) Complete the worksheet - see it below 

P.E

1) Practise your shape balance, roll, 3 point balance, travel and jump. (if you have space) from last week.

2) Practise rock and roll

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DcGFteFryoA

We started looking at this with Vicki when we were at school. Can you do the simple version and try the more complex version?

3) We want you to link a different 3 of the moves today similarly to last week. How smoothly can you transition from one to the other? Do some moves work more smoothly than others when joining them together?

4) Can you send me a picture of you doing one of the moves?

Reading

Drawing eyes

Use a mirror to look at the shape and colour of your eyes and eyelashes, compare them with someone else's (mum, dad, sibling) 

Do you notice that you cannot see the whole of the iris; the top and bottom are generally hidden by the eyelids.

Look at where your eyelashes grow from, and the angle from the eyelid (to the side rather than upwards) and how they grow in little clusters on the lower lid.

Look carefully at the iris, do you notice the lines radiating from the pupil and the dot of reflective light near the middle.

Now draw your eyes and remember to include all the things you have noticed.

The quicker you can recall your multiplication tables the better.

Today's video: https://vimeo.com/475444308

Then complete the worksheets.

Afternoon

Art

Today we are starting a new unit it in our art. We are moving to complete sketching looking at portraits and self portraits. 

Task 1: Pre-learn

-First I would like you to complete a pre-learn and draw a self portrait. Look in a mirror and draw a picture of yourself. This should be of just your face and doesn't need your body in. It should be around 1/2 an a4 page. (please ensure you label this pre -learn so we can compare it to your final piece in a few weeks time)

Task 2: Drawing heads and position of features: You might want a parent or brother/sister to have a go too:

- Now we are going to learn how to draw heads and faces - where do your eyes, nose etc go? How does your hair grow?

1) Head shape: Look carefully your face is not round like a ball. Everyones fact is a different shape but generally they are oval. Think rugby ball, not football.

- Lightly draw your oval filling your 1/2 A4 page.

2) Draw a line halfway across the face (from left to right). On this line draw your eyes. They should be about one eye width apart

3) Draw eyebrows above them. Look carefully at the shape of your eyebrows as everyones are different

4) Draw another line halfway between eyes and chin. This is roughly where the nose ends. 

- Look at the shape of your nostrils and draw that shape on your line

5) Draw your mouth half way between nostrils and chin.

6) Draw ears. The top of your ears are inline with your eyebrows usually.  Bottom ear lobes are usually inline with your mouth

7) Look where your hair is. It doesn't grow out the top of your head. You hairline starts much further forward. Which direction does your hair go? What type of line will you use to draw your hair - straight lines? zig zag lines? wavy lines? Draw your hair. 

TTRockstars

Finally we would like you to go on ttrockstars for 15 minutes. The battle between 3H and 3T finishes today! Who will win?? 

Thursday 21st January

Today we are starting our new Science unit on magnets and forces. In your pack you have been given a magnet- keep this safe as you will need it for the next few science lessons. 

Part 1

- Complete the pre-learn mind map in your pack labelled lesson 1. With a pencil write everything YOU know about magnets and forces. Don't worry if this isn't very much at the moment as we haven't learnt anything yet. We will add to this at the end of the unit like we do at school to show how much you have learnt. It looks like this :

Part 2

What do you know about Magnets? What makes something magnetic? What items do you know that are magnetic? How are they similar / different? Where do you find magnets used for a useful purpose other than on the fridge to hold up pictures? 

We want you to now go round your home and find which objects are magnetic and which are not. Put them in the correct place on your table (also in your pack)
