Primary 3 Mrs Caskie and Mrs Keegan Wednesday 3.6.20

Good morning Primary 3!

How are you getting on with the tasks on your learning grid? Remember that you can visit Sumdog to work on your spelling and maths skills.  The Sumdog challenges that we have set will help you to build on the same skills as the tasks in your grid.

Literacy

I know that we have lots of Harry Potter fans in Primary 3.  Did you know that JK Rowling  released a new book last week??  It is called  ‘The Ickabog’.  She will be releasing a few chapters at a time, completely free and accessible online, over the next 7 weeks or so.

To read The Ickabog, click here.

J.K. Rowling is also looking for children to illustrate her new book!  She is running an  illustration competition for the book for children aged 7-12. If you win, your illustrations could be printed in the book in November!  There are details on The Ickabog website here.

Maths

Today we have some problems for you to solve.  Send us an email or let us know in the comments section how you get on.

Non-Screen Challenge

Lego Zip Line

You will need string or wool for this task.

Using Lego or a small toy, create a zip line to help it travel across your garden/room.  Can you make it go faster/slower?  Have you got anything around the house you could use to make your zip line super long?

We’d love to see pictures of your zip line!

P3 Mrs Caskie and Mrs Keegan Friday 29.5.20

Good morning Primary 3!  We hope that you have had a great week of learning and managed to enjoy the beautiful weather too.  Can you believe that it is almost the end of May?

Below are some tasks to help you review your learning this week. Remember to keep trying if you meet a challenge.  As the song says ‘It’s going to be a fantastic day!’

Of course, it wouldn’t be Friday without Free Writing!

What makes Free Writing Friday special is that no-one  is allowed to correct your writing. Your spelling and  handwriting don’t matter on Free Writing Friday. What matters is that it’s FUN. Spend  up to 15 minutes writing  or  drawing. You can write stories, or notes from any exciting facts that you’ve found,  or drawings, or comic strips, or ideas for films or little pictures of characters. You can  write about books you’ve read or films that you’ve watched. This is YOUR writing.

Literacy

This week we would like you to self-assess your handwriting task.  Use a pink pencil/ crayon to highlight words that you are especially proud of and a green pencil/ crayon to highlight words that you would like to improve.  Remember to look out for:

  • finger spaces between words
  • writing on the line
  • tall and small letters
  • lead in lines and joins

Maths

This week we have been learning about division.  Use the answer sheet below to traffic light your work.

spring division by grouping ANSWERS

Non-Screen Task  Barefoot Safari

Some people believe that walking barefoot can help your well being.  Create a sensory walk over 4 or 5 different surfaces.   Outdoor surfaces could include long grass, bark, stones, leaf litter, fir cones or sticks.  Indoors surfaces could include a blanket, icy water, bubble wrap, shredded paper. Focus on how it feels!  Send us a picture via email if you’d like to share your safari.

Have a lovely weekend and enjoy the sunshine.
