Homework this term will be in a mixture of formats with whole school activities continuing, some jotter work and the use of Education city.
Education city homework is a fun way for children to practice skills and the program allows us to monitor progress, track errors and assign specific targets to specific individuals. It highlights errors and areas that individuals find challenging which allows us to plan and teach in a responsive manner. The activities assigned can be completed on a laptop, chromebook, tablet or phone or any device that has internet access.
Each child has their own login details which have been glued into the back of their homework jotters. Anyone having issues with login or please contact the class teachers for support.
This week P3a have been assigned spelling homework to be completed in their jotters as normal and reading each night as normal. This term our maths homework will be completed using education city. This week the children have been assigned a variety of maths activities on Education City which should be completed by the end of the week.
Along with literacy and numeracy homework P3a have been assigned a whole school homework task which relates to our class topic for this term. Our topic this term is The Rainforest. Attached is a copy of the sheet to download incase you have misplaced your paper copy.

This week we all took part in a draw along session inspired by the Grinch. We all watched a step by step video of how to draw the Grinch and drew along with it. We used pencil at first to draw the outline of his hand and then we added colour and texture using oil pastel.
We are all very pleased with how they turned out!
All of the classes in St Mark’s Primary have a Class Blog to showcase their learning. This week Primary 3’s homework is to share their class blog with their family and friends at home.

Last week we were surprised to find a special visitor in our classroom. Meet Tommy the Elf who has came all the way from the North Pole to visit us in Primary 3a. Over the past week Tommy has been playing tricks on us and he even put Miss McFlynn on the naughty list!
One morning we came into class and he had stole Miss McFlynn’s biscuits and was eating them!
Lets hope Tommy behaves himself this week!
A huge thank you to the boys and girls in Primary 3 for all your hard work making the lovely enterprise gifts. Our stall raised a massive £63 for the school!
As you can see p3a were extrememly happy with their other pruchases from the stalls at the fair.
