Homework 23.9.25

Welcome back!
We hope all our Primary 3 pupils and their families had a lovely September weekend!
Literacy Update
Our literacy focus is handwriting and sentence writing. This means we are practising letter formation, and making sure sentences start with a capital letter, have spaces between words and end with a full stop.
To give every child the right help, learners may move to different classes across the stage so that everyone is both supported and challenged. These sessions will happen three times each week.
We’re excited to share how much progress your child will make in each of our classes! Mrs Carten, Mrs Cree, Mrs Harvey and Mrs Rogerson.
Homework
Your spelling words are in your jotter again. Please write them out neatly 3 times. Write a sentence for each one – please remember your capital letters, full stops and neat letter formation.
In maths, your worksheet is consolidating our learning from last week where we were looking at placing numbers on a number line. Please complete the worksheet and return it to school with your homework jotter on Monday.
Below are links to some games which support our learning in maths:
