Hello Primary 3, I hope you all had a safe and cosy weekend.
Details of your homework for this week can be found below.
Literacy
In Primary 3 we have been learning about up-levelling sentences.
For example:
Basic/Base sentence: The dragon flew down to his cave.
Up-levelled sentence: After a long flight, the tired dragon swooped down to his warm and cosy cave.
Floppy’s Phonics books will not be issued this year therefore it is important to read for enjoyment at home with your child each week where possible. Predicting, discussing characters, their choices, the setting, the plot, etc
Phonics
There is a spelling list of words each week to practise with an activity sheet which has guidance below. Please complete activities in the Literacy homework jotter issued with the date marked.

As this is January, our P3 topics will be Scots based (due to it being Burn’s Day on 25th January). Please practise the poem ‘The Crocodile’ below as often as you can. Pupils will be chosen to perform the poem, individually or in small groups, for the ‘Burn’s Bash’ at Assembly.
Thank you for your support,
Mrs Devlin and Miss Walley
