There were a lot of children that hadn’t completed the IXL strands or completed the sentences in their homework books this week. These IXL strands would help them greatly, as they really reflect what we are doing in class. I know for some children it took them a little longer than most weeks to complete some of this, therefore I will give children another week to complete all homework areas, but if it could be completed by next Wednesday it would be greatly appreciated. There will be a couple of extra bits or slight changes so please make sure you check all areas for any of these changes:

MATHS- Please complete the following IXL Maths strands G1 and G2 in ‘addition of two digit numbers’ and H1 and H2 in ‘subtraction of two digits’.

READING - Keep reading EVERY night at home. It is important to read alongside an adult, where they can ask questions about the text and you can discuss events that happen in the book.

SPELLING- We have another week to practice our year 3 tricky spellings:

Strange peculiar describe sentence grammar straight

Well done to those children who took the time to make up mnemonics for the spellings, some of them were very impressive! How about this week you ask a parent to quiz you on the spellings in your homework book or even make up some silly sentences using the words?

GRAMMAR

If you haven’t already please complete the IXL strands Q1 and Q2 on prepositions and remember to complete the sentences in your homework books, using the following prepositional phrases:

Behind the shelves …

Before school starts

At home …

In the garden …

Along the lane …

SCIENCE (TWO WEEKS TO COMPLETE)

Can you please complete the research sheet in your homework books finding out who the inventors of electricity were and any information you can find out about them.
