We have been learning the sound z and thinking of things that start with this sound.
Today in our live lesson we are going to read a story called ‘Dear Zoo’ by Rod Campbell.
Your task is to think of a pet you would like from the zoo. It could be a real animal or a made up one.
Draw a picture of your new pet.
Then write a sentence beginning ‘ I went to the zoo and I got a ………..’
Finish the sentence off .
Then try to write some more sentences about your new pet.
Think about what it will eat, where will it live and what it will do.
Perhaps you could make up a story about your pet and tell it to someone in your family!

You could make the prices up to 10 pence.
Look for some 1p coins and then you could play shops with someone in your family.
Take turns to be the shop keeper and the customer.

Data Handling
Good morning primary 3! We have made it to Thursday. You have been doing such an amazing job all week. Keep up the hard work.
All
To start off our maths session today we will do some mental maths. You can choose which of the 2 options below you would like to do. You could even do a bit of both if you would like.
Topmarks – Daily Ten (link below). You can choose the area of maths that you want to focus on from the options in the game. When you are in the game, select level 2 (this is the one we have been using in school) and then choose the type of sums you want to answer from the next columns.
Daily 10 – Mental Maths Challenge – Topmarks
OR
Target Number – Select a target number. You should then see how many addition and subtraction sums you can think of that have the target number as their answer. For example: target – 65, 22 + 43 = 65 and 100 – 35 = 65. For an extra challenge in this task, try and think of sums that include multiplication to get your target number. For example: target – 65, 2 x 30 = 60 + 5 = 65.
Squares and Triangles
Once you have finished your mental maths, you should complete the task named “Handling Data Task”. Your instructions are included in the file.
Circles
Once you have finished your mental maths, you should complete the task named “Circles Handling Data Task”. The instructions are in the file.
All
The final maths task for today is to make a start on the Sumdog challenge that has been set for you. This will run until tomorrow afternoon.
