Their, there and they’re

This morning at 10am Chester Zoo will be going live again with a virtual zoo tour.  All you need to do is go to their You Tube or Facebook page and tune in!

Thursday afternoons are usually our P.E lesson so follow the link below to a lesson you can complete at home, we always really enjoy doing these in school! Remember to let us know how you got on!

P.E

Thursday 7th January

For today’s literacy have a go at some handwriting practise, there is a booklet below which you could have a go at (not all of it!) either by printing it off or by following the instructions on your own paper.  If you have problems getting the booklet then find a book and copy some of the text in your neatest handwriting, remember to really think about the size of your tall letters (b,d,h,l,k) and that your hanging letters are below the line (y,g,p,q).

This should only take about 10-15 minutes.

Next, have a look at this BBC lesson on compound words:

Work through the lesson and complete the activities.

Even though the start of this new year might look different for many of us as part of our PSHE work this week we were planning on thinking about our new year resolutions, it would be lovely if you could draw a picture of yourself in 2021 (maybe put the year at the top of your page like a banner) and all of the things around you that you would like to achieve. We know how creative you all are in Year 3 so can’t wait to see them!

Morning everyone! Here is some literacy work for you to start with:

1. Reading

Make sure that you read something today, it could be your reading book, a book from home, a magazine or something that you find online. Make a note of this in your reading diary.

2. Write about your Christmas

The PowerPoint below goes through everything that you need to include

Tuesday 5th January

If you can’t access the PowerPoint then remember to use full stops and capital letters, try and think of some interesting adjectives to describe. You could draw some pictures to help you organise your writing; think about things that you ate, people that you saw, presents you gave or received and places you went.

Remember you can send your work or photos of your work into the year 3 email address, we would love to hear what you have been up to!
