Maths – 3D Shape

We have been revising 2D shape recently and today we will move on to 3D shape.  That is three dimensional shape, or solid shapes.  Solid shapes can be described using the words; face, edge and vertex (vertices if more than one).

Watch this video to remind yourself.  (There is also some information on the webpage if you need it.)  https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/zjv39j6/articles/zgqpk2p

Then log in to Education City (https://www.educationcity.com/) where I have created some work for you on 3D shape.  (P3 Maths – 3D Shape)  Start with Solid Shapes (a learn screen) then move on to the other games.

Literacy – Grammar

You have done lots of work on adjectives (describing words).   Today we will be practising opposite adjectives.

Copy and complete the adjectives so each one is matched with it’s opposite.

Now have a go at coming up with some of your own opposite adjectives for these words:

• cold
• loud
• wet
• tight
• old

Remember our email address is:

It has been so nice hearing from lots of you and seeing some of your work 🙂

Good afternoon everyone!

French

I would like you to create your own character and tell me about them using French vocabulary.  You could design a monster, a superhero, a person – it is up to you.  Copy and complete these sentences accurately to describe your character:

Je m’appelle………….              /   My name is……

J’ai …………   ans.                     /  I am ………… years old.

J’ai les yeux ………………….. / I have ………… eyes.

Possible eye colours are:

noirs   – black

verts – green

bleus – blue

marron – brown

gris – grey

Here is my example:

Topic – Food and Farming

Our topic this term was supposed to be Farming so we thought we would include some blog activities based on this topic.

This afternoon, take a full page in your jotter and draw a picture of a farm.  Include as much detail as you can to show us what you know about already.  You could even add labels or little notes on your drawing to give more information.

It would be great if parents/carers could email the pictures to us, at:

wlpolkemmet-ps-primary3@westlothian.org.uk

Thank you!

Mrs Harding

Good morning everyone!

I hope you all enjoyed your weekend despite the stormy weather 🙂

To wake you all up this morning, try dancing along with this Go Noodle video:

Literacy

In class we have learned about ‘magic e’ for spelling and reading.  (The e at the end makes the first vowel sound strong – we hear the letter name rather than the sound.)

Watch this video to remind yourself:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3oA4wfUBak

1. In your blue jotter I would like you to write down the 5 vowel sounds at the top. (a e i o u)
2. Next write some 3 letter words that use each of the vowels as their middle sound.  For example:

hat

pet

sit

pot

tub

3. Can you add magic e to the words you have chosen?  Some will make real words, others silly words! Write down the ones that make real words.  For example:

hat ——>  hate

sit ——-> site

tub ——–> tube

Repeat this until you have made a few magic e words successfully.

4. Use your words to practise writing sentences, remembering full stops and capital letters.

(Some children may find step 3 challenging, so focus instead on steps 1, 2 and 4.)

Maths – 2D Shape

Revise the properties of the shapes below by playing the game here:

If you continue through the levels in the game you will also revise 3D shapes which will be our focus tomorrow.

Good morning

During lockdown my family have been watching all the Star Wars movies so I thought it would be fun to try out some Star Wars yoga.

Over the past few weeks we have been doing a variety of themed scavenger hunts, today I would like you to create your own scavenger hunt for a family member.  You could also send it to the class email and I could try to complete it with my family over the weekend.
