Reading
Remember to pick up a book and read for 30 minutes. Reading is the best exercise you can do for your brain!
Newsround
As we are all working from home because of the Coronavirus I thought a nice activity would be to create something we could look back on in time gone by to remember this special time we are spending at home.
Task 1
Your first task is to think about yourself.
How do you feel?
What are you thankful for?
What are you most excited to do when things go back to normal?
You can complete this task on paper or in your jotter. It is up to you how you would like to lay this out. Answer the 3 questions in proper sentences and draw a picture for each one!
An example of how to lay this out is posted below…
Task 2
Next I would like you to think of your Family. Draw 2 pictures. In the first picture I would like you to draw a picture of where you live. In the second picture, draw \nd label a picture of who you are living with! You can include pets too! Again it is up to you how you want to lay this out. Be creative.
An example is posted below…
Have Fun!
PHONICS – With a person at home use your pencil as your pointing stick and work your way through the speed sound sheet. Remember to challenge yourself and try to say the sounds in a different order.
Each of you have either set 2 or set 3 sounds in your home learning packs too. With someone at home say the sound and then the words underneath. Remember to say…
Work through this booklet to practice this!
JOTTER CHALLENGE – Open your blue home learning jotter and choose another jotter challenge of your choice. Complete this in your blue jotter.
Writing Challenge
Now you have ready for at least half an hour this week I would like you to take a moment to think about the story you have read.
Can you answer these questions in proper sentences in your blue jotter. An example is below to help you.
Who was in the story?
A sentence starter to answer this question might be…
In there story there were lots of characters. They were _______________.
Remember to use the question to help form your answer.
Questions to answer…
Good Morning Everyone! ✨🌼
Today on your timetable we have Numeracy, Literacy, Daily 15, Reading, Newsround and another Home Learning Challenge!
Boardsums
Yesterday you may have noticed a few slight changes to the boardsums. For example the questions for the circles used number bonds up to 20 and 30 instead of 10 and 20.
Remember you can use number bonds to 10 to help you with this. Note these down in your jotter if you need a little reminder.
Today along with the changes I have made for the circles I am also going to change the last question for both the triangles and the squares. This question may need you regroup/carry numbers in more than one column.
Triangles the answer to your last question could go beyond 100.
Squares the answer to your last question could go beyond 1000.
Circles
Yesterday we worked on addition to 30 using a number line to help us. However, if we were in the classroom we would be able to use the Numicon pieces to help us with our addition. Using what you already know and the techniques we learned in the class let’s try to answer the questions below in your red maths jotter. If it’s helpful for you to draw the Numicon shapes in your jotter feel free to do this!
After you have completed this try this game from Topmarks!
Level 1 focuses on number bonds to 20! You can do it!

Triangles
Let’s try some more column addition sums. Today we are going to work on carrying the ten or regrouping. Watch the video below to remind you of what to do.
Complete the questions below in your red maths jotter.
After you’ve completed these sums give this game ago it focuses on number bonds! Really helpful for us getting quicker with our addition.
http://flash.topmarks.co.uk/4021
Squares
Today we are going to continue to look at column addition using 3 digit numbers however all of our previous questions have only ever had an answer of 1000 or below. Today we are going to try questions where the answer is beyond 1000. This might mean you have to regroup (carry the ten) more than once in a question.
Lets have another look at our song to help explain this some more…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cE-yrJv4TEs
Remember to be super careful to line up your numbers using place value. This will help to keep our work neat and make it easier for us to add numbers accurately. Complete the questions below in your red maths jotter.
I would also like this group to have a go at this addition game focusing on number bonds. Try to pick up speed to help us with mental addition!

Again, if you have any questions you can ask them on the Primary 3 blog. I will keep checking this throughout the day!
Good Luck!
For today’s Daily 15 have a go at Cosmic Kids Yoga! Follow the link below and choose a story you would like to do your yoga to!

For our ICT we are going to learn about something called coding. Coding is a bit like a special language or set of instructions that tells a computer what to do!
The video below helps to explain this too.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=XMZFUnAgOqs
These simple instructions are the code!
Your job is to create a simple code to help the dog get to the end of the track. Remember to keep the instructions short and simple. They should only use 3 words maximum per instruction. For example Two Steps Forward.
Try to create a code for the dog pictures below.
After you have successfully written a code to help the dog reach the end of the track why not try to make your own track at home. Blindfold a grown-up and see if you can give them a simple code (using the correct language) to help them navigate their way around your track!
Have fun and good luck! 🙂
PHONICS – With a person at home use your pencil as your pointing stick and work your way through the speed sound sheet. Remember to challenge yourself and try to say the sounds in a different order.

JOTTER CHALLENGE – Open your blue home learning jotter and choose another jotter challenge of your choice. Complete this in your blue jotter.
Writing Challenge!
In your jotter a few of the challenges mention a writing technique called alliteration. This means two words that start with the same letter or sound, for example…
Bouncy Ball
Silver Snake
Blue Boat
Sometimes the first word of alliteration is an adjective. Remember an adjective is a describing word.
Listen to the song below to get some ideas.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zVQQlD__HnI
Your task for today is to make a sign for your bedroom. Your sign has to include alliteration using an adjective which begins with the same letter of your name, for example… Amazing Andrew’s Room or Brilliant Basil’s Bedroom!
Be creative you can decorate your sign in anyway you like. You can even post a picture of your sign on our class blog for everyone else to see! Have fun, can’t wait to see your designs!
Good morning everyone! 🌷🌼

Outside just now we can see lots and lots of spring flowers. One flower in particular is super common around Dundee.
This flower is a bright yellow colour and grows just about as tall as your knees! This is a Daffodil and they look like this…
Next time you are on a walk have a look around and see how many daffodils you can see. What other flowers did you see? What colours were they? What were the similarities and the differences compared to a daffodil? Note these down in your blue jotter.
Your task is to create a drawing of Spring flowers using just your pencil at first!
Use a pencil to draw the outline of the flowers before adding colour when you have finished!
Pay close attention to what the daffodil looks like. If you are lucky enough to have Spring flowers growing in your garden it might be a nice idea to complete your drawing outside.
If not you can always google some pictures of spring flowers to try and copy or use the helpful guide on how to draw a daffodil below!
I can’t wait to see all of your lovely spring pictures!
