Primary 3 Activities

Good afternoon

Numeracy

Choose a board game to play that involves rolling a dice and counting.  Then I challenge you to create your own board game, it may include counting, number recognition, ordering numbers or skip counting in 2’s, 5’s or 10’s.

Science

This weeks challenge is to make a paper tower. You can only use two ingredients – paper and tape. You can use any tape and paper you have in the house. A top tip is to make your paper into the shape of a tube, they are strong and light and are often used in building real buildings.
The idea is to build it as big as possible. Once you have built it up you can measure it, take a photo and send to the class email.

One of your classmates had fun last week completing the Daily Mile in her favourite costume.  She would like to challenge you to do the same the next you do the daily mile.
We would appreciate it if parents could please click on the link below and complete the questionnaire by 26th May.

Here are a few songs to help you learn your 2 times table.  Have fun singing along and then ask an adult to test you on your 2 times table.

How many animals are in the first song?

Try and song along with the song.

The second song is about things that can be done by animals, but only if you can tell a lie!

Join in with the third song Old MacDonald had a farm.

Maths/Art

Last week you did a 2D shape hunt.   Click into the presentation below.  What 2D shapes can you find in these paintings?  Look closely and list all the shapes you can see.

This week I would like you to create a piece of art with 2D shapes so you can practise drawing the shapes. Be creative! You can create an abstract picture like the ones by Kandinsky, or you can make a picture of your choosing using 2D shapes.

Ask your parent/carer to send me a photo of your work as I would love to see them.

Everyone should remember capital letters at the start and full stops at the end!

For a challenge you could try using commas in a list (,), exclamation marks (!) and connectives (joining words).
