Reading Challenges

Using one of the books from Bug

Club have a go at these tasks, focus on the quality of

your presentation as well as the content of what you create:

This week is all about CREATIVITY! Your challenge is to create a 3D model of a character from a story you have read. You can make it in any way that you would like… you might like to use tin foil like we did a while back, or maybe you have some recycling that could be put to use, or playdoh or a sock puppet… the possibilities are endless! Your model needs to have either a speech bubble attached to them with some key information about them as a character or you could take a video and produce a voice over for your character.

Creative Task 1: Transition Task 1

As we get nearer to the end of the Year 3 we will be asking you to complete a few tasks that we can then share with your new Year 4 teachers. This will allow you to introduce yourselves and share some of your amazing personalities with them before you become fully fledged Year 4 pupils in September. This week we would like you to share your super powers. As your Year 3 teachers we are very lucky to know all of your super powers – we know you are creative, resilient, risk takers, extraordinary debate leaders … the list goes on and on! However, the Year 4 staff team might not know you as well as we do just yet. Using the template below please add your head (either drawn or a photo) and then annotate your super hero powers on to your outfit. Maybe you have hidden powers outside of school, such as being a super swimmer!

Please upload these to Seesaw so we can pass them on to the Year 4 team.

Ask your grown up to help you take a really

clear photograph of you work!

MON Task 1 For this week’s Maths you will need to find the identified lessons on the main White Rose website.

https://whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/year-3/ Year 3-week 9 -lesson 1. Right angles in

shapes. Watch the video tutorial and complete the sheet.

Today’s focus is going to be on showing possession using the apostrophe! Use these video clips to help you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EXJLYYameBY https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/articles/zmq9kmn Once you have watched the BBC video, complete the practice questions to ensure you understood the video.

English Session 1: Complete the Singular and plural sort activity Now have a look at the different sentences and see if you can identify the singular and plural apostrophes

Task 2 Angles can be found where the sides of a 2D shape meet.

Can you identify angles in Kandinsky’s Composition VII.

How many separate straight lines there are? How could we count them? Which is the longest line? And the shortest?

Can you fine an acute angle? An obtuse angle? A right angle?

Either way, we cannot wait to see your creations on Seesaw!

TUES Task 1 https://whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/year-3/ Year 3-week 9 -lesson 2. Compare angles.

Watch the video tutorial and complete the sheet.

Today we are going to focus on making our writing exciting… How can we make our writing exciting? What might we use? What should we avoid? What would make someone want to keep reading? Warm up – what are conjunctions? Sing along with Laura as a reminder as you will need to remember these for the written task today. https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/articles/z48xt39 Laura sings about conjunctions like 'because', 'if', 'while' and 'until'. These are called subordinating conjunctions because they link a main clause and a

subordinate clause together in a sentence. Subordinating conjunctions help to add the extra information that tells us when, why or where something happens.

For example: Laura smiled because dancing was fun!

'Laura smiled' is the main clause. It makes sense all on

its own.

'because dancing was fun' is the subordinate clause. It adds additional information to the main

clause and wouldn't make sense on its own.

'because' is the subordinating conjunction. It helps to add the extra information to explain why Laura was

smiling. Now watch the video to help you understand how to join your ideas together. https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/articles/zrr8jhv and then complete activity 1 English Session 2: Now look at the sheet below and explain where the subordinate clauses are and have a go at joining some sentences together using conjunctions.

Task 2: Computing

This week we would like you to have a go at some touch typing skills. Follow the link to BBC Dance Mat Typing and have a go. Regardless of your typing skills it would be a good idea to start at Level 1 as this will ensure that you are using the correct keys for the speediest typing. Have fun!

https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/zf2f9j6/articles/z3c6tfr

Task 2 In this task you will need to identify whether angles are greater than or less than a right angle and name these as acute or obtuse. Draw some stick men on a piece of paper with joints such as elbows, knees and ankles positioned to show acute, right and obtuse angles. Why not challenge yourself and use real sticks to make these? KEY TASK – please upload to Seesaw

WED Task 1

https://whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/year-3/ Year 3-week 9 -lesson 3. Horizontal and

vertical lines.

So, what is a myth and what is a legend? Let’s remind ourselves what these are… What do you think a Myth is? Watch this video clip to see if you were right!

History:

This week we are going to learn about Roman mosaics. Mosaics are significant not only as art, but as evidence of where and how people lived,

Watch the video tutorial and complete the sheet.

What do you think a Legend is? https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/zx339j6/articles/zcxmb82 King Midas and his Golden Touch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWcJNvS0J80 Theseus and the Minotaur https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQuAUBX5xBw George and the Dragon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RqBn08RywaE Robin Hood https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4dnnMaNQGng English Session 5: Now write a detailed paragraph about what myths and legends are and the differences between the two…Use the information from the clips you have watched previously. Use examples from the 4 stories that you have watched so far. Remember to use conjunctions to join your clauses and ideas… and use your previous work from last week.

worked and thought because they are built into the foundations of buildings. Mosaics are among the best-preserved of all forms of Roman art. Click on the link below to look at some Roman mosaic pictures: http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/ancient/romans/mosaics_gallery.shtml Your task this week is to create your own mosaic. There is a step by step guide (separate document) to making your own Roman mosaic and you can find some pictures below for inspiration. Please upload your artwork to Seesaw!

Task 2 Find objects around your house that have horizontal and vertical lines. Draw and label the objects you find in the boxes below.

THURS Task 1 https://whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/year-3/ Year 3-week 9 -lesson 4. Parallel and

perpendicular lines. Watch the video tutorial and complete the sheet.

Let’s refresh our memories about what a myth is and what a legend is? What can you remember from last week?

Task 2 Mondrian’s painting Composition is a great painting to explore perpendicular and parallel lines.

Which lines are parallel and which ones are perpendicular? Can you cut all the pieces out to make your own Mondrian?

Now re-watch Theseus and the Minotaur https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQuAUBX5xBw

Poor Ariadne – left all alone in Athens on a beach! What do you think Prince Theseus should have done? Do you think he was right to leave her sleeping on the beach? If you were Prince Theseus what would you have done and why? English Session 3: Plan out three different scenarios that you might have done if you were Prince Theseus. Brain storm your 3 ideas and think of some reasons why. What might the outcomes be from your decisions? You are going to use these ideas to help you write alternate endings to this myth tomorrow.

FRI Task 1 Have a go at playing Estimating Angles. https://nrich.maths.org/1235 This game offers you an opportunity to improve your ability to estimate angles. You can either play on your own or challenge a friend.

Big WRITE… Today you are going to use your planning to write three detailed paragraphs. Remember to use conjunctions Revisiting conjunctions… Warm yourself up… https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/zwwp8mn/articles/zqk37p3

Science:

In Science this week, you will have a go at constructing a simple electrical circuit, identifying and naming its basic parts including batteries, wires, bulbs, switches and buzzers. Use this video to find out more about how to build and draw an electric circuit.

The closer you get to the target angle the more points you will score. There are four levels to choose from:

Level 1:0−90∘ Level 2:0−180∘ Level 3:0−270∘ Level 4:0−360∘

and modal verbs to express possibilities…

English Session 4: Use the template to write three detailed paragraphs about what you would do because you didn’t love Ariadne… Use conjunctions to join your ideas (clauses) together and modal verbs to explain what you might do and what could happen because of your actions.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/zq99q6f/articles/zs7g4j6 Now it’s your turn. Use the information from the videos to create your very own poster containing a simple circuit. You will find a key of the symbols below.

Spelling list wb 06.07.20

Spelling rules: revision-spelling rules we have learned in Year 3

Singular nouns

A singular noun is a noun referring to just one person or thing. For example: Cat

When you want to show that something belongs to that person or thing, you add a possessive apostrophe and an s. For example: The cat's tail was fluffy. 's shows that the tail belongs to the cat. Top tip If a singular noun already ends in s, you don't need to add another s. You can just add an apostrophe at the end. For example: Charles' cat was naughty.

Plural nouns ending in s

Plural nouns refer to more than one person or thing. For example: Brothers To show possession when the noun is plural and already ends in s, you just add an apostrophe to the end of the word. You don't need to add an extra s. For example:

The brothers' feet were muddy. The girls' bathroom was a mess.
