Good morning Year 3 and welcome to another week of Learning from Home.
Here are all of the different challenges that you can dip into over the week.
Please make sure that you try some of them, especially the Reading, Sumdog and Nessy challenges.
Have fun and keep learning. We are so proud of all of your efforts and so grateful for all of the help that your parents are giving you all. Please make sure you say a big “Thank you” to them from all of us in the Year 3 team. We can’t wait to see you all again but in the meantime we love receiving your emails and seeing your lovely photos. If you haven’t been in touch yet please do drop us an email, and maybe a photo or two, so that we know that you are okay.
Have fun with this week’s challenges…
PE
Try to do a PE challenge each day.
PE with Joe Wicks. Yoga (there are some super videos on line). One of Mrs Gregan’s PE challenges for the week. Our outdoor warm up. How many of each station can you do? (Spotty dog… Downward dog running… Push ups… Star jumps) Trampolining. Skip with a skipping rope. Put on some music and have a good dance. Go for a bike ride or a walk or a run. If you have done any other form of exercise don’t forget to tell us about it.
Sumdog
Have a go at some of the maths or spelling challenges that are on Sumdog. Try out some different games.
Nessy
If you have a Nessy login, please make sure that you are having a go on Nessy each day. (Just 15 minutes a day will really help you.)
Daily Reading
Make sure that you are reading each day and having a go at the quizzes on Accelerated Reader. (Please do quizzes on Accelerated Reader even if you are managing to quiz on other websites too. Drop us a quick email to tell us if you have reached your target). Try to be really focused when taking your quizzes so that you can get 100%. Don’t forget that you can read books or ebooks. If you have not yet signed up for Epic Reading and want to do this, just drop us an email and we will get you started. What is your favourite place to read? What is the best book you have read recently? Can you send us a photo of you reading?
Spelling
This week we would like you to practise the following words. Maybe you could try some of the exciting ways on the Fun Ways to Learn Your Spellings sheet that we sent out a few weeks ago. You might even be able to manage to put some of them in your written work this week.
Maybe you could have a go on some of the Sumdog spelling challenges - lots of your spelling words from the year are included in them.
See if you can make up a very short story that manages to get every one of these spellings into it.
Have fun! (Send them to us if you can!!!)

Helping around the house
Don’t forget to keep helping around the house. What jobs can you do this week? Maybe you could make everyone’s bed or load the dishwasher/do the washing up. Maybe you could do some baking - make sure you tidy up afterwards, or maybe you can tidy your bedroom without being asked. Don’t forget to send us a picture of you helping around the home.
Typing
Have a go at some of the typing games on Purple Mash. Are you a Sadie Spider and a Lizzie Ladybird? Can you improve on your scores within the set time? Let us know how you get on.
French
How many different items of furniture can you learn the names of in French? Can you draw some pictures and label them?
Draw a picture
This week you might want to have a go at drawing a picture to illustrate part of the story of The House Haunting. Make sure that you read the story section carefully, think about the words that the author has used to describe what is happening and what can be seen. Which part will you choose to illustrate? (Send us your pictures so that we can put them on the class blog.)
Prayer
Think about how we do our class and children’s liturgies in school.
Make up your own liturgy to share with your family. Think about what your theme will be, what you will look at, what you will read (a bible story), what you will say (a prayer). You might even want everyone to sing a song or hymn.
