Another wonderful morning to you my little munchkins! This week in the mornings, my mum and I decided to start to learn some Yoga and Pilates. We felt things were getting on top of us a little with the current situation and everything that is going on so wondered what we could do. I remembered that Mrs Lindley always says how much better she feels after a yoga session, so we looked one up on YouTube and we couldn’t believe how much more relaxed we felt after doing this. Maybe you could try some yoga and let me know how you get on? Here is a quote that made my smile this morning from my new favourite book:

Grammar;
We are going to be looking at some grammar today. I have set you a 2Do on PurpleMash. You are going to complete the Word Families task, where you will work out how prefixes and suffixes change the meaning of root words in word families.
Art;
Take a walk around your house and garden if you can, use a tablet, smartphone or digital camera to take photos from a Bird’s Eye View (from above the object), and Worm’s Eye View (from the bottom of the object, looking up) and by zooming in on just one part of your subject.
Here is my Bird's Eye View ...
Here is my Worm's Eye View ...
Don’t forget to focus the camera by touching the screen where the object is. After the walk, choose the best photos for each angle, and delete the others.
You might want to edit your photos for the best effect by cropping them. If you are using a tablet or smart phone, you should be able to do this by tapping on the photo and pressing edit or a little image of a pencil. You could ask a grown up to help you with this.
Here is the Lego challenge for today! Remember to email us your creations! If you don't have Lego, don't worry any construction material will do …
See you tomorrow, metaphorically anyway and stay safe!

Good morning! I can’t believe that Wednesday is here already. Remember to keep in touch by sending us an email or writing a comment on the blog. We had another surprise delivery yesterday. My auntie had a picture of the whole family put on a jigsaw and sent to us! The power of technology strikes again. This is such a lovely way to remember everyone, especially those who are not with us anymore, we are definitely going to enjoy making the faces of everyone! (Not a sentence you usually say). Here it is …
Have you been doing any jigsaws or puzzles? I know Mr C and quite a lot of year 6 have, let me know by sending in pictures if you have them!

How did you get on with planning the letter yesterday? Already written it? Don’t worry.
Your task for today is to write another letter to someone else, I know that year 6 even wrote one to themselves to open a year from now to remind them about what they were doing and what was going on in the world.
Maybe you could draw some pictures to go with your letters? Create an activity like a crossword or word search? Maybe even give them a picture to colour in like the letters I coloured in for our refuse collectors?
I can’t wait to see what you come up with!
French;
Bonjour encore! Today in French we are going to carry on looking at the French names for the colours. Here is something a little fun to help with your learning. I have found a word search so have a go at finding all of the colours in French. Also, don’t forget about Duolingo which is a fabulous way to learn in short, easy sessions. I have started an Italian course as well as a French one. Here is an image of the word search as well …

Hello Year 3! 28.4.20
admin on: Class 3
Good morning fabulous year 3!
It's Mrs Matthews here!! I just wanted to say good morning to you all, send you a big whole class 'air hug' and say how very sorry I am for 'deserting' you all this week and last! Sadly, I became suddenly very unwell over the Easter holidays and it's taking longer than I'd hoped to fully recover. I'm getting better every day though and am very much hoping I'll be back and fully fit by Monday! I miss you all so much and can't wait to be back in the classroom with you all; I really hope it will be as soon as possible. I hope you all had a fabulous Easter holiday and had lots of very tasty treats! I know Miss Hemingway is doing an amazing job, kindly holding the fort for me and I know she has been giving you lots of wonderful tasks and challenges every day. I hope you're still enjoying working hard at home, but also having lots and lots of fun! I can't wait to be planning more exciting activities for you all and sharing your amazing photographs and masterpieces once again too!
Take care, have lots of fun and keep working hard and hopefully I'll be back in touch on Monday morning!
Love from,
Mrs Matthews

Howdy do to all of you!
Thank you to all of the people who have already got in touch with me! I really appreciate it. If you haven’t had the chance yet, don’t worry. All of us at school just want to make sure that you are all happy, safe and well. Remember we are here for you and will endeavour to do what we can to support you further. This weekend someone on my street organised this …
Everyone pitched together to colour in some letters. One of our lovely neighbours then took the time to stick the letters into the bins and put them in the correct order. She spoke with the refuse collectors, keeping 2 metres apart of course, and Dave, Martin and Lenny (the collectors) were thrilled with the message that read: Thank you to our key workers.
Here is the suggested timetable for today:
E.R.I.C. - Everybody Reading in Class for 20 mins (remember to record your reading in your planners)

Time for some more creative writing!
Your task over the next couple of days is to write a letter to a friend to tell them about what you have been up to. You could include a review of the book you have just read. Think about what they would like to know about what you have been up to, maybe you could ask them some rhetorical questions so they can write a reply to you?
Today, I would like you to plan your letter. Really think about what you want to say to your friend.
Computing;
This half term we are going to be looking at simulations. Today, you are going to be finding out what a simulation is. I would like you to research what a simulation is and fill out the 2Do on PurpleMash. There are reminders about what needs to be included in each section. Here is what it looks like …
PSHE;
Why don’t you try and do something like we did for our refuse collectors? Here is a template for you to make something for a key worker you know, whether that be a member of the NHS or supermarket worker. It will make them smile and realise how much we appreciate what they are doing for us! Here are the letters that we coloured in …
Music;
How did your concert go last week? My mum and Grandma loved it, or so they told me! I even did it in the garden in the sunshine! Do the same activity this week but pair up with someone in your house? Can you find something to use as an instrument to accompany you? A tin, a bottle, some rice? This week I am going to be singing You Can’t Stop the Beat from Hairspray as I love watching and listening to music from this musical!
Here is the Lego challenge for today! Remember to email us your creations! If you don't have Lego, don't worry any construction material will do …

Remember to keep reading 1 to 1 with someone every day! It is Monday again which means it is time for some comprehension. Either choose one activity from your pack or try this comprehension about sun safety. I thought that this was relevant as we have been having such lovely weather and I do hope that it continues!
Geography;
You are going to be starting a new topic of UK geography this half term. Here is a map of Europe. Where is the UK? Can you find Austria? On the map, how is the UK different to Austria?
Here is a map of the UK. Surrounding us are four seas. Also, in this country we have many rivers that flow into the seas. Your challenge for today is to use an atlas or a map on the internet, to name the seas that are around the UK. Here is a picture of the work or a sheet can be found here.
Next, I would like you to match the river names to rivers shown on your map and identify the seas they flow into. Again, here is an image or the work can be found here. Good luck and don’t get too sea sick!
