Spend some time practising your spellings, remember that there are lots of things that you can do to help you, have a look at these:

Spelling strategies

Correct the sentence

Feeling confident? Challenge yourself by choosing one of the sentences from the worksheet and carry on writing, think about what the sentence says so what might happen next? Most importantly don’t forget that punctuation!

Remember to choose one of the reading activities to complete today or read from a book at home.

 

Phonics Play is now FREE!

Phonics Play website - Blog

https://www.phonicsplay.co.uk/

PhonicsPlay is a website that offers interactive phonics games and downloadable resources across the ‘Letters and Sounds’ phases. The site will once again become free for a period of time whilst the majority of primary schools are closed.

You may log in with the following details:

NEW RESOURCE

PhonicsPlay comics are short, simple, silly comics that can be used to help children apply the skills that they have learned in daily phonics sessions. The comics can be printed out as PDF files or simply viewed online. They should be viewable on most devices but will obviously be easier for children to read on larger screens.

Use this resource to revisit particular sounds that your child is struggling with or as additional reading material for you at home.

Martin Luther King Day

Literacy

Punctuation is something that we are constantly working on in year 3 as it is so important! Have a look at the BBC lesson on punctuation that can be found here.

Work through the lesson and have a go at the activities.

If you want a challenge then have a go at producing your own piece of writing using the correct punctuation – it could be anything you like; a story, a letter or even a cartoon strip. You can email your finished work into the year 3 email address for us to check!

Don’t forget your reading – choose one of the guided reading activities to have a go at.
