Primary 3 – Wednesday Home Learning Numeracy Task!

Good Morning Everyone! ✨🌼

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

Boardsums

Circles


Triangles and Squares

In class (and with Mrs Brankin) we have worked on column addition and subtraction. We have now revised this on the blog.

We know that subtraction is the opposite of addition.

Addition means to add things together where as subtraction means to take things away. This can be really helpful for us as we can use subtraction to help us check addition sums and addition to check our subtraction sums. This is what we are going to look at today.

Lets try the first one together so we can use it as an example…


We have just reversed the sum!
31+45=76
76-45=31

Now it’s your turn! Give these questions a go in your little red maths jotter.


You do not have to complete the challenge questions at the bottom they are simply an extra challenge. 🤗

Primary 3 – Tuesday ICT Home Learning!

We have been using our coding skills to help us write special instructions that are easy for both people and computers to follow!

Today it is our job to help the messy pirate reach the treasure!  To do this we have to make sure we are starting on the square that says “Start”. From here think of a simple code you can give to the pirate to reach each item of treasure on the picture.

You can either write the code like we did last time for the dog task or you can draw pictures similar to what is done in the questions below!

For our ICT Task next week this game might be quite helpful.

Next week we are going to begin writing codes on the computer. This game is a helpful start point for you.

https://www.tynker.com/ide/v3?type=course&slug=activity:puppy-adventure&chapter=0&lesson=2

It is important to connect the small boxes together to create the code to help the puppy! Give it a go. Remember this is only a starting point for next weeks task so don’t worry if you find it tricky 🙂

Primary 3 – Tuesday Literacy Home Learning Literacy Task!

As usual lets start with our phonics lesson.

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

Writing Task!

These activities are split based on literacy levels.

1 Star

If you usually work within the 1 star challenge in literacy please follow the link below. This will take you to a literacy booklet suitable for your level.

https://www.talk4writing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Y1-Unit.pdf

Your literacy tasks will be based around the story ‘Sidney Spider – A Tale of Friendship’.

For today’s task…

  • Read the story with a someone at home.
  • Complete Sidneys sticky notes after you’ve discussed the story with a grown up.

2 Star

Our literacy will be based around the story in the link below. This story is called ‘The Magical Teaching Box’.

https://www.talk4writing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Y2-Unit.pdf

For today’s task…

  • Read the story.
  • STOP READING AT THIS POINT and complete this activity.

  • Continue to read the story and complete this activity.

3 Star

Some of the 3 star challenge activities might be a bit tricky to complete independently but if you would like a challenge you can give this a go!

All our literacy activities are going to be based around the following text. The story is called ‘The Truth about Trolls’.

Read the text  from the link below. Remember this can be done with an adult to help you.

https://www.talk4writing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Y3-Unit.pdf

Our first task is quite tricky. My advice would be to  try and match up the words you know first. For example … the word which could match mean would be nasty.

Give it a try! I promise the next couple of activities will be easier. 🤗
