Lets start with out daily phonics lesson!

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…

• The special friends
• Fred in your head
• Say the words

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.

SPELLING – In your home learning pack I have given you a sheet with lots of different spelling activities. You can do any one you choose or maybe even one you have thought of yourself. Every Monday I will post a list of 10 spelling words which you can practice using different spelling activities throughout the week.

Remember to choose a star challenge which you think is appropriate for your learning! Additionally, feel free to push yourself on through different levels on the common words section of Doorway! I do realise that some of the 3 star challenge words might be  a bit too easy for some of us this week ✨

Above the stars I have written where these words have come from on Doorway Speller.

For example to practice these words on doorways speller you would follow the link below.

• Click 1200 common words
• Then click the part written above your spelling words. eg. 1 star challenge would click 1st hundred then set 3.

 

Good Morning Primary 3.

I hope you and your families are all well and have stayed safe at home throughout our 2 week break. I know its a little bit different than what we are all used to but remember to be brave, keep smiling and stay positive. We will be back together soon 🙂

Today on your timetable we have Numeracy, Literacy, Daily 15, Reading, Newsround and another Home Learning Challenge!

Remember this timetable is flexible. You do  not have to stick to this rigidly but it can be used as a guide to show you what we would be doing if we were in our classroom!

Board Sums

Circles

We need to keep working on our number bonds to 10 and 20 so we can get really quick with addition sums! Before we start our written task today practice the number game below.

Complete the following questions in your red maths jotter. Use the number line in the back of your blue jotter to help you.

Triangles

It has been a little while since you tried column addition with Mrs Brankin so we are going to give this another go today. Let’s try 2 digit addition with no carrying to begin with! Watch the video below to remind yourself how it is done. I’m sure you’ll be experts again in no time.

After you have watched the video to remind yourself what to do. Give these questions a go in your little red maths jotter.

Squares

In the classroom for our board sums we were working with 3 digit addition calculations. We made sure that our answers stayed between 0 and 1000. Today we are going to try to practice this some more!

Remember to make sure you line  up your work by putting numbers in the correct place value columns and you will manage this no problem at all!

I found a little video for you to watch that tries to explain the process through a little song. I have posted it below.

After you have watched the video, give the following addition sums ago in your little red maths jotter.

Sumdog Challenge

I have set up a new Sumdog challenge for us which began today at 6am and ends Friday at 10pm! You can find your log in for this inside the front cover of your blue home learning jotter.I will keep track of how we are doing and let you know through the week!

Good Luck 🤓
