Literacy:

-Write down 2 things you liked about each story and 1 thing you might change and why.
-Create a bookmark with animal facts on it.
-Remember you can access books like the Oxford Reading Tree ones from: https://www.oxfordowl.co.uk/
If you click the Pink icon at the top right that says ‘My Class Login’ and enter Primary 3 Deans as the username and Mrs Hillan as the password then you can access these if you haven’t set up your own account.
Spelling – You have a list of spelling words included in your pack – remember to practise these regularly and use the spelling task cards to help! You can find the cards here if you have misplaced yours – http://www.blessedbeyondadoubt.com/spell-cards-printable/ – any problems accessing these email the school and I will help!
You could also try these games to help you learn and spell new tricky words:

Writing/Art- Create a fact file about your favourite animal. Research an animal of your choice and explore the vocabulary required to describe them. Draw a detailed picture of them when you are finished.
Numeracy
-Select a number between 50 and 100. Make a poster showing how many different ways to make this number using addition, subtraction, multiplication or division.
-Complete the task below which tests your knowledge of the 2, 5, and 10 times tables:
IDL
Think back to our Scotland topic and all the fantastic facts we found out. I would like you to research Scottish traditions and customs such as wearing kilts and playing bagpipes, and the symbol of the Thistle. Create a mini poster or leaflet to include as much information as possible – remember to include pictures as well as your facts!
Music/Technology
Write a song about staying safe at home and why it is important. Put some music to your song by either using instruments you have at home or by making some – for example rice in a bottle makes a good shaker! If you are able to, please record your song and email it into school – I would LOVE to hear it!! There is some good ideas on creating homemade instruments in the video clip below, and I’m sure you could find some more!
Hope you have fun and have a great day!
Mrs Hillan
