Good morning Year 3. I hope you had a happy Wednesday and are looking forward to a fun day ahead. We really enjoyed finishing Mr Stink, we are looking forward to finding out what our next book will be after Half Term.
Ms Hodson really enjoyed the stories that some of you read out and sent in. She had the biggest smile on her face while she was listening. I love your blurbs and book covers for Mr Stink. Your Lenten Promises are beautiful too!
If you haven’t already sent your video for the dance, try to send it as early as you can today on Seesaw.

Reading
Please read out loud to somebody for 20 minutes.
Then, ask somebody to read out a page of your book to you. Listen out for different voices and also where they pause.
Spelling
Here are your spellings for this week. They are some of the words which you need to know by the end of Year 3.
decide, describe, different, difficult, disappear
Write the long date: Thursday 11th February 2021
Write the title: Spelling Sentences
Write 5 sentences using your spelling words. They can be about anything and they can be silly if you want.
Start each sentence with a capital letter and end each sentence with a full stop, exclamation mark or question mark (if it is a question).
Writing:
Please talk to somebody all about the Mr Stink book – tell them the story, the different characters, your favourite parts, any parts you didn’t like, how you would change the ending if you could.
I have attached an example of today’s work for you so you can see how to present it.
Find your book cover from yesterday and open it up.
Inside the first half, I would like you to give the book a star rating. Draw up to five big stars depending on how much you like the book. Draw them big enough to fill this whole half of the page.
1 star = didn’t like it at all 5 stars = loved it
Inside each star, write down a word to describe the book e.g. emotional, amazing, funny, happy, interesting.
Then colour in your stars – but don’t cover the writing.
Inside the second half, write some quotes that different people have said about the book. Below are things that myself, Ms Hodson, and Mrs Wood have said about the book. You can copy them. You can also write down what you and people in your house have said about it. Remember to use inverted commas (speech marks).
Write these big to fill your page.
“A fantastic book that made me laugh and cry.”
Miss Smith
“I laughed so much, especially at Mr Stink’s toilet habits.”
Ms Hodson
“A truly wonderful book all about friendship and being yourself.”
Mrs Wood
Remember:
Perfect spelling
Capital letters
Beautiful handwriting
Inverted commas
Please send me a photo of the inside of your book cover on Seesaw, I will be looking out for beautifully presented work.

French
First let’s recap the phonics sounds from the week before last by watching the video again. This week, you are going to try and write down the number and colour words that contain the sounds.
Before you start, write the date and learning objective in your book:
jeudi onze février
Can I use phonics to help me spell French words?
Then write each of the phonic sounds, leaving space underneath each to write down the words that have the sound in. Spread them out on your page. The sounds are:
Ou eu an oi in/un i on
Now listen to Emilie again, pausing the video when she asks you to think of the numbers and colours that have that sound in. You have a go at writing the words under the right sound then start the video again to check your spelling. Please correct it if you make a mistake. Mistakes are fine! They help us to learn.

Maintenant, nous allons apprendre les animaux = Now, we are going to learn some animals.
http://www.rachelhawkes.com/Resources/Y3_French/Yr3SpringFr.php
Click on Lesson 15 with audio. Work through the PowerPoint.
Can you add some animal words to each phonic list now? What about un lapin? Which sound does that have? Un oiseau? Un poisson? You could draw a mini picture next to each word to remind you what they mean.
Très bien et merci beaucoup.
