Primary 3 – Tuesday 2nd June

 

Hello everyone! Hope you are all well and making sure to have lots of fun in the sun in between your tasks. Remember to check your packs for more tasks.

 

Literacy

Our weather has been mixed over the past wee while with some gorgeous sunny weather to some rubbish cold and wet weather! Here’s hoping the nice weather stays around for a good while longer!!! Write a weather report. See how many adjectives (describing words) you can use!

Do a bit of research and then write a set of clear instructions on how a rainbow is made – remember to include some lovely pictures!

 

Try this website for some different ways to help with your spelling – Spelling City: https://www.spellingcity.com/spelling-games-vocabulary-games.html

 

Writing – remember to complete Miss Taylor’s writing task that will be posted on the blog at some point this week.

 

Numeracy

Choose a number between 10 and 20. How many different ways can this number be partitioned? Do bigger numbers have more ways they can be partitioned? Try some out!

Here is an example of partitioning to remind you:

 

14 could be partitioned as:

10 and 4

11 and 3

12 and 2 etc

 

You could also have a look at this PowerPoint for larger numbers:

IDL

Use maps and atlases to identify Ireland and more specifically, Northern Ireland.

Watch some video clips of Gaelic football and Irish dancing. Why not try out some Irish dancing!!

Find out about any Irish legends – note down the key information you find.

Find out about London and look at images of famous buildings such as Buckingham Palace and the Houses of Parliament.  Pick one of these to do a detailed drawing of. Record keys facts around about your drawing.

Research a city in Great Britain and an area of the countryside – Make a list of the two to compare them – what is the same and what is different?

 

Art

Find an object in your house or outside in your garden – draw it carefully, showing attention to detail. Why not try shading it in to show the lighter and darker parts of it. This video clip might help with this:

 

 

French

We are going to have another look at Family today, with a focus on Siblings. Use the link below:

https://www.french-games.net/frenchlessons?topic=Family%20-%20my%20siblings&level=primary

Work your way through the activities and games. Once you have finished, and completed the test at the end, write 3-5 sentences about who you have in your family using the website and what you have learned to help you.

 

Enjoy Wellbeing Wednesday with your families tomorrow! Remember the link to the activities will be on here.  Mrs Lockhart & Mrs Morrison will be with you on Thursday and Friday as usual.

Take care,

Mrs Hillan

Phonics

Today we are going to learn another new sound – ‘y’

Here is the jolly jingle for y

https://youtu.be/futQOvUnHVs

How many words can you think of which contain the y sound? Have a look around your house, what can you find?

Here is Geraldine to help you think of some..

Have a go at practising writing this letter.. this slide below will help you.

Why not grab some chalk and go outside and practise writing this letter on the ground or what can you find around your garden to make the letter?

Once you have practised forming the letter correctly, have a go at spelling these words…

y -u  – m           y- u -ck       y-e -s      y- e – t        y- e- ll                  y- e -ll -o -w

Draw a picture to go with each of the new y words.

Finally, I have added  ‘Yellow Yo-yo’ to our home learning section of Education city. Good Luck!

Science

There are lots of fun activities through Glasgow science centre this week as they celebrate #BigBiodiversityWeek with World Environment Day being celebrated on June 5th (Friday) Every day at 10am they have a new biodiversity themed video. Why not log onto their Youtube channel GSC at home. Yesterday they were looking at food chains-  have a little watch!

Here is a little video to help explain  a little further what a food chain is.

Can you have a go at making your own very simple food chain?

I’ve added a Learn It on Educationcity called Food Chain Safari – have a go..

I hope you have enjoyed today’s tasks. Tomorrow is Well being Wednesday so I will be back on Thursday for some more home learning ideas.
