The heart symbol represents Jesus Christ’s actual heart, as His love for all of humanity. The heart has a circle of thorns that represents the crown of thorns at the crucifixion. The flame or light surrounding it signifies the divine light of love.
When people pray to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, they will often feel a greater sense of security knowing they are being watched over and protected. Among other things, the Sacred Heart brings peace to families and individuals because of what it signifies.

Hello P3/4 🙂
Good luck with your tasks this week boys and girls. I have included a variety of tasks for you to pick and choose from, you don’t need to complete them all. I hope you enjoy the lovely weather and manage to spend some quality time with your families. Take care for now children. I am missing you all.
Numeracy – The Measuring task on Sumdog continues this week. Keep practising your 2x 3x 4x 5x and 10x times tables too.
Remember we looked at 3D shapes and their nets? We worked at different stations in class and some of you were able to cut out the net of a 3D shape and glue it together. We discussed these shapes further by linking them to a real life context? Why not try to make one again, or perhaps choose a different one this time. Don’t forget to ask an adult for help when using scissors.
Literacy – The reading and grammar tasks for Sumdog will continue this week.
Check out the Tutankhamun reading and comprehension task below. At the bottom of each set of questions you will find stars. The stars represent the level of difficulty beginning with one star, progressing to 3 stars. Complete the reading and comprehension questions you feel comfortable with. Good luck.
Tutankhamun Reading Comprehension Task
Throughout P3/4 we have looked at contractions with many of you using the Go Fish/Snap games as a finishing task. I have included a revision worksheet below.
R.E – Continue your kind deeds at home. I loved to read about your kind deeds each week in your homework jotters. Some of you even included a drawing to show how you helped someone at home. Why not draw a picture and write a few sentences about what you do this week. I’d love to see all your drawings.
Remember how powerful passing on a smile can be 🙂
I am thinking of all the Muslim children during Ramadan. It is a good time for prayer and good deeds.
Egypt/Mindfulness – Here are some printable sheets I thought you might like to colour in.
Remember you don’t have to complete all of the tasks, just do what you can and have a nice time at home.
Thinking about you all and hoping to hear from you on the blog.
Goodbye for now.
Miss Park 🙂

Monday 20th April 2020 – Welcome Back!
Good Afternoon P3/4 🙂
Are you enjoying the lovely weather? I would love to hear from you all and find out how you are doing and what you’ve been getting up to.
When I’m in my garden or out for a walk I remember our fun Nature Walk at the beginning of Term 1 and how much fun we all had looking at the trees, flowers, butterflies, birds, dogs and more. If you have a garden why not go out and investigate all of the living things you find there. If you don’t have a garden you could try to look out for living things during your family walk outside in your community.
Literacy and Art – Why not draw a picture of a particular tree or animal and write some facts about it using bullet points. You could include some adjectives to help describe your picture in more detail. I think I will draw my favourite tree, a cherry blossom tree. My neighbours have one growing in their garden and it is very beautiful.
Numeracy – Please remember to practise your times tables. You can access the Funky Mummy subtraction, addition and multiplication games using this link
Problem Solving – We had lots of fun looking at shapes and patterns last term. Use your problem solving skills and try to complete the Set Mania daily challenges.
I have also set some new numeracy and grammar tasks on Sumdog for you to complete. I’ve noticed some of you have attempted previous tasks with some hard workers even managing to complete them. An excellent effort! I hope you do well in these new tasks too. I’m excited to see who is at the top of the leader board each time I check your progress.
R.E – I hope you are all helping out at home and completing kind deeds for others.
Topic – If you managed to create an Egyptian message using hieroglyphs, well done. If not, just click on this link to help you make one Hieroglyphic Secret Message
Please complete some of these tasks if possible, but remember to laugh lots and have fun. Make sure you enjoy time with your families while this lovely weather lasts.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Take care, Miss Park 🙂
