Thursday 17th September - Work for children in Self-Isolation

Good morning!

I hope that you are still keeping well and feel up to doing some school work today. Here are the details of the work I would like you to complete today, if you can.  You can find the resources for today's activities in the Year 3 Home Learning folder.

Literacy

In Literacy we will be planning our Big Writing this week - a retell of the story of Bob, the Man on the Moon.  First, we will look through my example of the story.  Read it carefully and use a highlighter to identify the different openers, WOW Words and conjunctions that I have used. Are there any parts you could borrow or uplevel for your own writing?

Then look carefully at the planning sheet and complete all the sections to support you with your Big Writing tomorrow.

Maths

In maths we will be revisiting place value, focusing on adding 1 more, 10 more and 100 more.  You will need a dice (if you don't have a real one there are online versions) and a place value sheet showing Hundreds, Tens and Ones.  There is an example in the Google Drive or you can draw your own.  Roll the dice three times to generate three numbers.  These will be your hundreds, tens and ones.  For example, if I rolled a one, a four and a six, my number would be 146.  Complete a place value sheet to show this number.  

Then add one more in the ones column using a different coloured pencil.  What number have you made now?  In my example with 146, the new number would be 147.  Write out the number sentence to show what you have done: 146+1=147.

Repeat the activity again, adding on 10 and then 100 to your original number, again writing out the number sentences.  In my example, my new numbers would be 156 and 246 respectively. 

When you have had a few goes, look at the exploration task and see if you can think of a rule to explain your answer.

RE

In RE, we are learning about Hinduism, focusing on the many different aspects of Brahman.  Brahman is a Hindu God, but he is represented by many different deities, depending on the job he is doing.  Have a look at the information in the Home Learning folder about some of the different deities, and watch the story of Ganesha on the BBC Website.  

Computing

In our computing lessons we are learning about staying safe online.  It's really important for you to be aware of e-safety, and make sure that you keep yourself and your personal information safe when you are using the internet. Have a look through the Powerpoint presentation in the Home Learning folder and create a poster about e-safety.

Please send scanned copies or photos of your completed work to the school office (email: office@swanlanefirstschool.worcs.sch.uk ) so that I can have a look at it.

Many thanks
