Good morning Year 3. I hope you are all well and happy.
So far, 25 of you have started the Sumdog challenge – well done and keep up the hard work J
Take the time each day to do something with your family that makes you happy (I have been working my way through the Harry Potter movies).
Reading
Please read out loud to somebody at home today for 20 minutes. Pick out any words that you are unsure about and find out what they mean.
Spelling

pencil, fossil, nostril pupil, April, gerbil, lentil, evil, basil, stencil
Choose 3 of your spellings and write silly sentences using them.
Times tables
Call out your x tables whilst doing star jumps. Call them out in order first and then mixed up.
Writing
Here is a poem about friendship.
The Best of Friends
The best of friends
Can change a frown,
Into a smile,
when you feel down.
The best of friends,
Will understand
Your little trials,
And lend a hand.
The best of friends,
Will always share,
Your secret dreams,
Because they care.
The best of friends,
Worth more than gold,
Give all the love,
A heart can hold.
Write your own poem called The Best of Friends
You can copy the poem above and change some parts into your own ideas, or you can write a completely different poem.
Remember a capital letter at the beginning of each line and a comma or full stop at the end of each line.
Focus on perfect spelling and joined up handwriting,
