Happy half term!

Today is the last day of term. I hope you have a well deserved rest - you have all worked so hard this term and have made me so proud!! We have been doing a weekly run on Friday mornings and the children have been enjoying it and  developing their stamina with running- today we did 9 laps of the pitch. Great job year 3 !!

Half term homework-Design a Stone Age tool

Picture
The children have loved learning about the Stone Age - you have remembered all of the facts so well. Your task for the holiday is to design your own Stone Age tool . You can draw and label your tool in your book. Here are some questions to think about :

What job does your tool do?

What is your tool made of? 

Draw and label your tool in your homework book. Once you have done this you could have a go at making your tool (you can make it out of anything that you have at home). 

Reading 

Please read 15 minutes- you have your library book and your home reader. I would like you to put any new vocabulary that you come across in the back of your homework book and you also have the questions in the front of your reading record. Growing our vocabulary is so important!!

This year I am challenging all year 3 children to read the 10 must read books by the end of the year !


Here is the fantastic list of books:

  1. Into the Forest -  Anthony Browne
  2. Leon and the Place Between - Angela McAllister
  3. Jinks & O’Hare Funfair Repair - Philip Reeve
  4. The True Story of the Three Little Pigs by A. Wolf - Jon Scieszka
  5. The Wolves in the Walls - Neil Gaiman 
  6. The Sheep Pig – Dick King Smith
  7. Cat Tales (Ice Cat) – Linda Newbery
  8. The Abominables -  Eva Ibbotson
  9. Pippi Longstocking – Astrid Lindgren
  10. The Worst Witch – Jill Murphy


I will be giving children the books to read and keeping a record of who has had what books. Please let me know if you have any of these books at home already- this means your child doesn't need to borrow the schools copy- thank you!! (I forgot to give these books out on the last day of term- I will give them out on the Monday when we get back to school)

​

Grammar- Homophones

Revise the use of their there and they're with the link below- there is even a game!

Well being homework

​Tell me something you are proud of this term ( you all have lots of things to be proud of!!) 

Use the sentence starter 
​
​I am proud of myself because .....


For example- I am proud of myself because ........
I am kind to others.
I try hard in my learning.
I don't give up.
I use my voice to speak up about things.

Spellings 

Look, say, cover, write, check is a method of learning spelling, where children:
  1. Study a word.
  2. Say it aloud a few times.
  3. Cover it up with a piece of paper or their hand.
  4. Write the spelling next to the original word.
  5. Check their version to see if they got it right

  1. her 
  2. what
  3. there 
  4. out 
  5. this

Have a restful half term year 3! Stay safe :)
