Learning at home updates:
Welcome to Year 3’s Home Learning Page
As well as our exciting Rainforest Project (details of which can be found below) check here every day for interesting tasks and stimulating activities to fill your days whilst you are unable to come to school.
Scroll down for loads of brilliant websites that are filled with excellent games and activities to keep your brains buzzing!
Happy Monday year 3. Hope you had a good weekend. This week we would like you to make sure you keep up with your Doodling. Great to see so many stars being earned. Great work, keep it up! There are some new homework activities today. What are you waiting for?
We would also like you to continue your Rainforest Projects. This week try to find out about the animals that ONLY live in rainforests. Pick a favourite and create a fact file about it then draw a massive picture of it using any art materials you have. For extra points try to make your picture using collaging. Get lots of different bits of paper or pictures from newspapers and stick them together to make an amazing animal picture.
Like this! Send pictures of your creations to the school email or Facebook and you may get to see some of your art appearing here! Don’t forget that we also want to read some of your rainforest stories about imaginary adventures in the canopy, understory, emergent layer or just on the forest floor.
Remember that there are lots of websites down below to visit if you need some more work and also make sure that you are keeping active. Exercise with Joe Wicks, go for a run around the garden, make up your own circuit training course in the living room. Keep busy and be creative.
Keep checking back here every day for further instructions. Keep up the great work year 3. You are superstars.

ICT lesson for this week. Try coding a dance party using block coding: https://studio.code.org/s/dance-2019/stage/1/puzzle/1
Or code your own flappy bird game: https://studio.code.org/flappy/1
When you’ve finished, get a parent, sister, brother etc to try out your creation. Have fun.
Keep it up
Great to hear about all the learning that you guys are doing at home. Get your parents or guardians to show us what you are achieving either by emailing or posting your great work on our Facebook page. I’m looking forward to hearing more about your successes every day. Today I watched Cohen reading a story which he has uploaded on to Facebook. Check it out if you can and maybe do one of your own. But it doesn’t have to be you reading, upload your pictures or football skills or dances or.... anything that you have enjoyed learning at home this week.
Have a restful weekend and check back here on Monday for further instructions.

Audible is a website with loads of free stories to listen to. Here is the link
Great work to all you Doodlers. I am having to work soooo hard to keep up with you!
Extra mentions to William, Finley, Logan and Harley who have got well over 100 stars and a special shout out to George H, Harry and Thomas who have got well over 200 stars. They are beating me in the Doodle star stakes.
If I have missed anyone out then I promise I will keep watching and give you a mention next week!
Newsround is going to change how it operates from next week. Now, more than ever children need clear news to enable them to understand what is happening around them... so that's what they are going to do.
Good Morning Year 3
Week 1 of home schooling. We have added some tasks for Doodle English and Maths. You will see that I have also joined your class so your challenge is to see if you can keep ahead of me in the hall of fame.
Remember to try to get in to a daily routine. After breakfast I suggest doing Joe Wick’s workout on YouTube every morning at 9 am
Then do English and Maths before taking a bit of a break. Remember to get busy on your rainforest work in the afternoons and try to think of creative ways to do some of the other subjects like Science, music and art.
This link might give you a few ideas about how to keep up with the other subjects.
Happy Home Schooling
Mr Mac and Mrs Humphris
