Year 3 Home Practice 4th December 2020

Date: 4th Dec 2020 @ 3:51pm

We have had a great week in Year 3. The weather has been a bit cold and wet but we haven’t let that dampen our spirits.

Everybody has come into school every day with a huge smile on their face.

We have read more of Mr Stink, we were not impressed with Mrs Crumb’s strict policy. We made up our own policies that we would use if we were MP. I would definitely vote for some of you!! We also wrote a spooky story where all the teachers are vampires!!

In Maths we have been practising our 4x tables and have been doing lots of subtracting.

Friday was exciting as it was ‘tree dressing’ day where we celebrated being outside. We wrote Advent promises on coloured stars, decorated them with sequins and patterns and then tied them onto a tree near to the Year 3 classroom. We love the outdoors.

Home Practice for 4^th December – 11^th December

1. Read to somebody at home every night for 20 minutes. Talk about what you have read.

2. Go on Sumdog and complete the following challenges:

x tables challenge – 4^th December – 11^th December. This includes all of the x tables you need to know by the end of Year 3, don’t worry if you don’t know them yet, it is good practice and will help you a lot in our maths work next week.

Spelling Challenge - apostrophes - 4^th December – 11^th December

3. Practise your x tables – you will be tested on them on Thursday 10^th December. You need to know them quickly and confidently without having to count on.

4. Spellings - you will be tested on them on Thursday 10^th December. You need to practise them every night. It is also a good idea to practise spellings from previous weeks.

The spellings this week are ing words. When adding ‘ing’ to words that end in ‘e’, the ‘e’ must be removed.

hiking, shining, surprising, joking, hoping, smiling, loving, writing, coming, caring

5. Listen to the Nativity songs at home and practise singing along.
