January 2026 – Primary 3

Homework Week Beginning 27.01.26

Literacy

This week is a consolidation week for phonics which means we will be revising the phonemes which have been taught over the past three weeks. For homework, we are asking learners to practise their tricky words. These will be written into their homework jotters.

Copy each word three times, then write a full sentence for each one (keeping in mind your learning targets).

Our class poetry competitions will be held this week with our school poetry competition taking place on the 6th of February. We can’t wait to hear everyone perform!

New books and games have been added to your Bug Club account, learners also have access to Nessy to support spelling and reading practise!

Stand up tall and straight.
Head up – don’t look at the floor.
Use expression in your voice – it will make your poem sound so much more interesting!
Say the title of the poem and the poet before you start.
Use actions and feel free to bring in props!
