Homework Help

Each week the children will be given literacy and numeracy homework to complete. All homework is issued on a Monday and it should be returned to school completed on Friday. Children should remember to bring their reading books into school every day.

The literacy homework consists of spelling and reading which should be completed every night. Spelling tasks are highlighted in the front of their homework jotter. Their spelling words for each week can be found in their homework folder on the ‘Spelling List’ sheet. The children will also take home a new reading book each week which they should read at home each night.

Along with their reading book is a word wall sheet. Children should practice reading and spelling aloud the highlighted words.

Numeracy homework consists of a page from their ‘Zeta Maths’ homework booklet. Each week the primary 3a are assigned a new page to complete. The details of the page to complete is located in their homework folder on the ‘Primary 3 Mental Maths Overview’ sheet.

Hope this helps!

Maths Week!

During maths week we participated in lots of different activities surrounding maths and numeracy.

We worked in pairs to create calculations which would give us a certain number. We worked hard against the clock to create as many calculations as we could in 3 minutes.

We also were very lucky to receive a visit from some 5th and 6th year pupils from St. Luke’s High School. They spoke to us about currency from around the world. The girls showed us some pictures of different currency and we managed guess where some of it was from.

Welcome!

Hello everyone and welcome to Primary 3a’s blog!

Primary 3a have got off to a fantastic start to the school year and have began learning about many different things.

This term our social studies topic is ‘The Romans’. So far we have been learning about the countries that the Romans invaded and today we used the chromebooks to find facts about Julius Caesar.

In science we have been learning about the human body. We have looked at the skeleton and can explain how the skeleton helps us. We have also been learning about the heart and we even tested our own heart rates using monitors.

Keep checking our blog this year to see what we have been learning!
