Year 3 w/c 11/01/21
Home learning, Monday 11th – Friday 15th January
Hello Year 3!
We hope you have had a lovely weekend! Please find below the home learning activities for this week. We would like you to complete three activities each day and upload them to Seesaw each day to show us how you have got on so that we may give you feedback.
This week, there will be three Zooms:
Monday – KS2 worship
Wednesday – Our first class Zoom (including a quiz!)
Friday – Class celebration assembly
Parents, please check Seesaw regularly for meeting times and sign-in codes. Please also refer to last Friday’s newsletter from Mr Booth regarding online safety and Zoom procedures. We will go over these as a class on Wednesday.
Monday
English – Watch my teaching video on Seesaw, and then write a recount which details your journey through / along your chosen experience from Friday’s image. Use the zone of relevance you completed on Friday and the support bank below to help you. When you have finished, please reread your work to check that you have written in complete sentences and punctuated them correctly before you upload as this is what I am looking out for today.
Monday support material – Capital Letters and Full Stops

Warm up task: Practise your 3, 4 and 5 times tables. Say them aloud (1×3 = 3…), say the multiples (0,3,6…) and get an adult to ask you questions out of order.

Tuesday
English – This morning, I am introducing you to our topic-based book which will support the rest of our English unit – Stone Age Boy. This is a fictional recount which we are going to skillfully turn into a series of diary extracts, written from the main character’s perspective (1st person).
Listen to me read the story on Seesaw and then refer to the text as you complete the table below to summarise what happens within each ‘chunk’ of time. If you complete the activity on the Word document attached, you can save it as a pdf and upload the document directly to Seesaw.
Please keep today’s work somewhere safe as you will be referring to it for the rest of the week.

- which creature you will choose (from the Stone Age selection on my video)
- how to describe its appearance, smell and how it moves
- how it could use one of its features against you
- what you (writing in the 1st-person as the boy) will do
- how you escape.
Some of you may also choose to change how the little boy returns to his home.
