Week 11 June 8th

Hello Class 3! We hope that you have had a good week - despite the change in weather which will no doubt have stopped some of your outdoor activities. The staff have been busy getting the school ready for our return on Monday. We are both teaching a group of Year 6 children during the week so have had to change our classroom around. School will be very different for everyone but we are sure that we will soon get used to the routine.

Well done to those of you who have contacted us this week and completed the tasks set.

Have a good week everyone

Mrs Chick and Mrs Conway

Week 10 June 1st

Half term is over and we are back to work - still at home for the moment. We hope that you have been enjoying the fantastic weather as much as we have - plenty of time spent in the garden. It has been a good opportunity to catch on reading, gardening and having barbeques. Hopefully we will all still continue to enjoy the sunshine in the coming days - aim to do some work in the morning and then make the most of time outside to enjoy other activities.

We are so proud of the way you are coping with these strange times, away from friends and family. Well done to those of you who are completing so much of the work we have set. It will help you tremendously when we eventually return to school - you will have kept up to date with us and find it much easier to settle back into a routine.

Have a good week and take care

Mrs Chick and Mrs Conway

Work this week:

Maths - remember to work through the Powerpoint first!

          Year 4 comparing and ordering decimals (answers provided) 

                   arithmetic paper

          Year 5 converting fractions to decimals - problems (answers provided) 

                   arithmetic paper

Science/DT - recycling activities

                have fun creating things from recycled materials, both man-made and  

                       natural

English - Your reading comprehension this week has a wildlife theme. Choose your level of difficulty - the most challenging starts on P.13.

Grammar - your work is on verb tenses - the past and the present perfect tenses. Read through the PowerPoint carefully first and have a go at the activities within it. There are some worksheets to complete afterwards.

Creative writing - We would like you to write a persuasive letter to encourage others to protect wildlife. The worksheet includes an ideas box but you may have some of your own that you would like to write about. Try to use some more complex connectives to link your ideas eg. however, furthermore, therefore, despite. Remember to try to include some facts to support your opinions.

Art - We have both spent a lot of time in our gardens over the last few weeks and have enjoyed watching the birds that visit. Have a look at the PowerPoint below - there are lots of different ideas for some birds inspired art work that you could try but, of course, you may wish to create some of your own. Again, please send us your pictures and we will add them to our gallery.

Hope you all enjoyed the long weekend and were able to celebrate VE Day in some way. We were both out in our road for the 2 minutes silence and then the 'all clear siren' was sounded. We then enjoyed scones and cake in our own gardens. Lots of our road had bunting or flags on display.

Have you looked at the staff video on the main Home Learning page yet? If not, do have a look as it is our message to you all. We both loved seeing all the staff as we have missed everyone. Ms Birch is very clever and joined all our video clips together.

Week 5 April 20th

Hello Class 3 and welcome back to our home learning activities!

We hope that you had a good Easter holiday and enjoyed the lovely sunshine, spending lots of time outdoors. We have both been busy with walks and enjoying time in the garden. It has been a good opportunity to turn out cupboards and do all those tidying jobs you never seem to find time for!

As our time away from school continues for the foreseeable future, we are again posting work for you to complete at home so that you keep practising all the many skills we have been using in class.

You will need to press 'DOWNLOAD DOCUMENT' to see the work clearly. As always, make sure you take time to read instructions and look at any examples given. We have included the answers to some of the work - make sure that you have a go and do as much as you can before you check them!

Remember to email us examples of your work or photos of you doing any of the many activities you are enjoying whilst at home. We both read all your messages and chat to each other about what you have done before we then send a reply.

Take care everyone

Mrs Chick and Mrs Conway
