1) 572 + 413 = 2) 999 - 111 = 3) 142 + 101 = 4) 561 - 220 = 5) 520 + 248 = 6) 649 - 533 = 7) 220 + 315 =

Day 3 |
After reading a section of your book, answer these questions:
1. How was the character feeling and why? 2. Why did that happens? 3. What will happen next? 4. What do you think of the character? Why? |
Bitesize Daily Book Club: Charlie Changes Into a Chicken by Sam Copeland
If you are unable to access this link, think about something that happened during half term. It may be something you cooked, a game you played or a film you watched. Retell what happened in 5 steps. You may just retell part of it, i.e. your favourite part of the film. Use time adverbials to help you, i.e. first, then and finally.
Challenge: when you are describing what happened, can you try and make the reader laugh? When you read it out, does it make you smile? I.e. secondly, mum squelched the flour and milk together. It sounded like a pig falling over in mud. SPLOSH! You could even draw a funny picture to show it.

Adding three-digit numbers
If you are unable to access this link, answer these questions using the column method. Remember to always add the ones column first, in case you need to carry a ten over to the tens column.
1) 232 + 415 = 2) 814 - 125 = 3) 592 + 224 = 4) 148 - 673 = 5) 95 + 329 =
Challenge: Find a pack of playing cards/uno cards. Turn over 3 cards and make a 3-digit number with them. Then, turn over another 3 cards to make a second 3-digit number. Add the numbers together! After, swap your numbers around to make a new sum. I.e. 279 changes to 927 or 792. |

Day 4 |
As you read, pick out a section of dialogue. Act this out with someone at home and get into the character.
|
Fact and opinion
If you are unable to access this link, research the difference between facts and opinions and answer the following questions: 1. What is a fact? Give an example. 2. What is an opinion? Give an example. 3. What does a fact need to be supported by? Then, find a reading material of your choice (book, news article, magazine etc.) and write down one fact and one opinion from the text.
|
Subtracting three-digit numbers
If you are unable to access this link, use the column method to do the following subtractions: 1. 451 – 218 = 2. 840 – 525 = 3. 472 – 238 = 4. 481 – 323 = 5. 690 – 526 =
Check your answers are correct by adding (as subtracting is the inverse/opposite of adding) e.g. you can check that 182 – 37 = 145 by doing the sum 145 + 37 = 182.e.g.

Hello Year 3! This week and next, we are looking at Christianity. Watch the BBC video to find out about Jerusalem which is seen as a place of pilgrimage for many Christians. https://www.bbc.co.uk/teach/class-clips-video/religious-studies-ks2-what-is-christianity/znshvk7 Can you list four places that Nathan (the boy in the video) might choose to visit in Jersualem, say what he might learn by going there. What do you think Lara might tell him about the four places? Enjoy your learning! Mrs Westall

ICT |
Hi Year 3! This week I would like you to use https://hourofcode.com/frzn to investigate something. In our computing lessons, we have begun to look at using block coding to get characters to different places on the screen. (Remember beard man?). This is a similar concept, but this time you will be working with Elsa and Anna from Frozen. Click on the link, watch the video and see if you can give the right code to make the characters move and turn and go to different places on the screen. Enjoy! Mrs Fraser |

Have a go at playing this tune (attached file - Ode to Joy) on the virtual piano! https://www.apronus.com/music/flashpiano.htm If you have a real piano/keyboard/glockenspiel at home, try to use that as well.
Watch this video for the full explanation: Mr Owen
