Year 3 Home Learning
Welcome to Year 3's Learning Page
Date: Monday 8th February - Friday 12th February
Good Morning Year 3!
As a team we have made it to the last week of this half term. Last week you all worked extremely well and you all produced some amazing work. We loved seeing all of your pictures of you all making cakes (it made us very hungry) and the amazing descriptive stories all about monsters. Thank you and lets make this weeks work even better!
This week we are starting a new literacy topic all about characters! This year, so far you have written about many different characters from Mr and Mrs Twit to monsters from last weeks work. You need to try and remember all of these amazing characters and also remember any characters you have read about!
This week we will be holding additional zoom sessions. In all packs you will find a letter detailing the changes. Below is an adapted version of the letter without teachers zoom codes. If you need a copy of the original letter please email our class email and we will send it to you.
Please try to log on to Timetable Rockstars (TTRS) and Active learn daily- we have allocated several books and math's games for you to complete. We will be checking weekly to see who has logged on and who is a time table wizard!
If you have any questions about your home learning or you want to send in your completed work including pictures please send them to your class email - I will check this regularly.
Your home learning packs are ready to be collected from school today.
Take care and have fun.
Miss Shakespeare, Miss Poole, Miss Lincoln and Miss Parkinson
