Primary 3 – 28/04/20 AM

Good morning everyone!

This video should get you ready for Literacy:

Literacy
Last week quite of lot of you managed to log in to sumdog.com and had a go at the grammar challenge I set you. I have made a new challenge for this week so please log in again and give it a go! There is also the spelling challenge from yesterday to complete as well. (The challenges last until Friday.)

Please remember to practise reading your tricky words from your word wall or word list as well.

Maths

Following on from yesterday’s post on money, here is a money challenge:

How many different ways can you make the total 20p using different coin combinations?

List them in your blue jotter and comment here with how many ways you could find. HINT: there are a lot!!!

Play this Toy Shop Money Game. Select ‘Mixed Coins’ and then select a total that you are happy working within. If it is too easy, select the next highest total. If it is a bit tricky, you could try a smaller total.

Have a good morning 🙂

Primary 3 – 27.04.20 PM

Good afternoon everyone,

I hope you all had a good morning. This afternoon let’s have a go at French and Technologies/Art.

French

Watch this video of a boy called Angus who visits a school in France. Play along with the guessing game, ‘En France ou en Ecosse?’

en France = in France
en Ecosse = in Scotland

In your blue jotter, write the title A l’ecole. Draw a picture of the French flag in the middle of your page (google it if you can’t remember!) and then draw some of the famous landmarks from France (from the video) around it.

Technologies / Art
Create your own pixel masterpiece using the online creator I have posted below. You can choose what to create. Some examples include a Minecraft style character, a superhero, a Spring animal or scene.

I hope you all have an enjoyable afternoon and let me know how you get on.

Primary 3 – 27.04.20

Good morning everyone!

I hope you’ve all had a great weekend and had some fun in the lovely weather.

Wake up this morning by getting active! You could continue joining The Bodycoach for P.E. with Joe at 9.30am, or for something different, have a go at some yoga (in a Minecraft world!):

Maths
In class we have been learning about money. To continue on from this, you could try to join the The Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) and their partner website, MoneySense, for a live lesson on Facebook or Youtube this morning at 11.30am. To join the lesson, parents should access the lesson by going to the Royal Bank of Scotland Facebook page. #MoneySenseMondays

You could also try a game to help with budgeting, here:

Literacy

Write a recount of your weekend news in your blue jotter. Remember all your core writing targets (punctuation, spelling, finger spaces, handwriting) and also try to use some openers, such as:
At the weekend…
Yesterday…
On Saturday…
Last night…

Draw a detailed picture to go with your writing.

Please also access Sumdog.com where I have set you another spelling challenge 🙂

Remember to let me know how you are getting on and if I can help you at all by commenting on this post.

Mindfulness and Meditation

Sun breath

Lie or sit on the floor with your eyes closed. Picture a bright shining sun smiling at you. Feel the warmth of the sun on your face. Imagine the sun warming your shoulders and arms, your legs and feet. Lie or sit and enjoy the warmth of the shining sun. Gently stretch your arms above your head and open your eyes.

Hope you have a lovely weekend and stay safe.

Ask an adult to test you on your 2 times table.  Ask them to time you and see if you can get faster.

Mr McCrudden has challenged you to make a seat.   You need to find 4 tubes /tins/cans/pringles/toilet rolls for the legs and then something to sit on across the top.

Primary 3 Literacy and PE

Good Morning

Here is a fun activity to start your day!

Write a set of instructions for an activity you have done over the Easter holidays – this could be a game you have played, something you made or built.

Checklist

I have used capital letters and full stops.

I have used step by step instructions, using first, then, next and last.

I have written clear short sentences, in an order that makes sense.

I have included a picture or diagram.

Primary 3 Literacy

Good Morning

I hope you had a lovely break and are enjoying being back to online learning.  Lets start the day off with a dance to get us wide awake and ready to learn.

 

Literacy

Choose one of your favourite books, pick ten words from a page and see if you can put them in alphabetical order.  If ten is a bit tricky try with 5 words first.

Remember you can also complete tasks on the home learning grid and log onto Sumdog, IDL and Education City.

I would love to see the work you have been doing. You can send it to the school email.
