Good morning primary 3,
What a quick week it has been! You have all be working extremely hard. Please remember to take plenty of breaks throughout the day. Remember not to worry if you do not manage to complete all of the tasks.
Please click the link below to access your literacy work for today.
Numeracy:
Please start your numeracy work today by having a go at our place value game. To access this click the link below. You can choose to work with 2 digit numbers or to challenge yourself and try some 3 digit questions. Good Luck!

Today we are continuing our revision work on estimation and rounding. So far we have looked at rounding 2 digit numbers to the nearest 10, rounding 3 digit numbers to the nearest 10 and rounding 3 digit numbers to the nearest 100.
Below you will see a link for 3 tasks. I would like you to choose carefully which task you would like to complete. Have a look at all 3 before you make your decision.
I have extended your Sumdog challenge until 3:00pm today. I hope this gives everyone enough time to give it a go. There is also some place value work available on Studyladder. If you do not have your log in for this please get in touch.
Health and Well-being:
Yesterday we had a look at different types of emotions. If you are feeling sad or down it is important you tell an adult you trust.
There are also some things we can do to help improve our mood. Regular exercise is very important at this time. You can try some cosmic yoga today to help you relax.
Another thing you can do to stay positive is to do a task that makes you feel happy.
Cooking is something that helps me to relax and feel happy. I also like to sit in my garden to read a book. Throughout this time I have also been playing board games with my family. All of these things help me to remain positive.
Click on the link below and complete the worksheet. This will help you think of lots of activities that help you relax and make you feel happy.
Please remember to pray and to thank God for keeping us safe and well at this time
Keep smiling and have a lovely day.

A RAINBOW cake! It looked amazing and it tasted delicious. 🌈
I hope you are all well and ready for another great day!
Let’s begin our day with our morning prayer.🙏🏻
God our Father, as we prepare to begin our work, we ask you to help us use properly, the many gifts you have given us, so that we may fully benefit from our day together in school. St. Barbara, pray for us.

🌈 Good Morning Boys and Girls 🌈
It has been great seeing all of your work and how creative you have all been over the last few days. The character profiles, news reports, not to mention the beautiful poems on your Super Heroes – from Grans to Mums – I’ve loved them all. Mrs Graham and I are so proud of all you have been doing at home. Please keep sending/posting your work as it really brightens our days.
Can you believe that it is the last day of April and tomorrow we begin a new month?
Let’s start the day with our morning prayer. 🙏
I hope that you have been remembering to say our Guardian Angel prayer, especially at this time, so that they will keep us safe and well. Here it is if you can’t remember it.
Angel of God, my Guardian dear,
To whom God’s love commits me here;
Ever this day, be at my side
To light and guard
To rule and guide. Amen
Health and Well-being
Let’s take time out of our day to keep active. You have been given lots of different types of exercises to do. Free choice today – what will you do? Oti Mabuse, Joe Wicks, Go Noodle or for all the football fans you might like to take part in this – all you need is a football! ⚽️🥅
Literacy
Here’s a little starter to get our brains working. find a word 30 April
There’s no need to print just answer in your jotter. At the bottom of the activity you will see that it is asking you to find some of the parts of speech we were revising last week. See if you can remember them. Can you remember what an adverb is? We will look at those tomorrow.
Spelling
If we were back in class we spend around 15 minutes going over our spelling words. If there are any of your words you are still unsure of remember to practise them. Take time to use the strategy that helps you. Remember people use different ways to learn new words.
Reading
Make sure you read today for at least 10 minutes. Find a quiet time and concentrate really hard on your book. Use a dictionary if you don’t know the meaning of a word. Reading expands your vocabulary and helps you in so many different ways in literacy.
Numeracy
For each word problem, underline the key information, write down the sums and work out the answers. The problems may involve adding, subtracting, multiplying or dividing. Remember to show your workings in your jotter. There are two steps Take your time and read the questions carefully.
Primary 3 – Try to do at least 3 questions. Primary 4 – Try them all.
Challenge: Questions 4 and 5 have three steps.
Keep practising your tables and remember if you have got time you can carry out a task from your grid. Remember you have Sumdog , First News and Study Ladder too!
Make sure you remember to take plenty of breaks and drink plenty of water. Well done for all your hard work today. Remember tonight we say a big thank you to our NHS workers.

Literacy
Today is Thursday and that means writing day! Although I was only in your class for a short time, I saw some super writing tasks from you. On Tuesday it was National Superhero Day, which honours superheroes both real and fictional. 🦸 You may have a favourite superhero of your own? In my house we have two favourites, one of my boys loves Batman and the other loves Spider-Man. Superheroes are great role models for us, they serve and protect while fighting evil. Over the last few weeks we have seen lots of super heroes in our own country, helping to fight this virus. Can anyone think of who these people might be? We clap for them every Thursday. Doctors, nurses, NHS workers among many others.
I would like you to write about your favourite superhero, it could be Batman, Spider-Man, Captain America or any other. You may even choose someone closer to home that you think is a superhero, it might be your mum, dad, gran, grandpa, friend, teacher, whoever you wish. I would like you to tell me your superhero’s name, their special powers and why you think they are so important. You can also draw a picture of your superhero. I’d love to find out who your hero is, you could send me a little picture.
My favourite super hero is…
I like him/her because…
His/her super power is…
