Good Morning Class 3,
Welcome back and to another amazing week of home learning! Strap yourselves

Just give everything a go and try your best (that’s all I ask)! You’re all doing a
super job and I am so impressed, so please give yourselves a Merit Point for all
the effort and perseverance, which has been evident in all of your work.
I have absolutely loved receiving all your updates… photos and video
performances, which you have been sending. So please keep them coming in,
as I love to hear from you all.
Hope you have a fabulous week of learning and keep up all the hard work!
Lots of Love,
Miss Sweeney

can be done in the front of the small exercise book you have, which doubles up
as a Rough & SpaG book. Then self-mark it using your purple pen.
Next, cut and stick the following week’s spellings on the next page.
You might want to get practising these straight away!

Use a dictionary if you can’t remember what these words mean!
Home Learning Week Commencing 20/04/20
English
Read the next page of the book which ends with the Mum saying
‘Don’t go into the forest… ‘
I want you to think about:
Why does the Mum tell her son not to go into the forest to get to Grandma’s
house? Why does he disobey her?
What do you think the boy was thinking?
Why does he decide to go through the forest?
What YOU tell the boy if you were talking to him… to turn around and go home?
Or would you tell him to go the quickest because his grandma is poorly?

Handwriting practice today can you copy out the following words today at least
3 times each, in your neatest presentation.
As you can see we are focusing on different types of words this week.
Can you work out what types of words these are?
English
I would suggest today that you start the lesson by reading the book of Into the
Forest by Anthony Browne again. Sometimes be can pick up some extra details,
even get great enjoyment, when we re-read stories. This is a quite a simple text,
so you may also want to focus on the illustrations (pictures) too, study them in
great detail – what can you see?
Today’s task is for you to re-write the story as a playscript.
At the front of your Writing Books:
LI: I can write a playscript Thursday 24th April 2020

Remember NO SPEECH MARKS!
5) Put any actions that take place and actions in (brackets).
Please concentrate on neat presentation and using powerful verbs

different scenes according to the setting and giving these titles too.
At Home
Venturing into the Woods …
Once you have finished, take the time to re-read your writing checking it all
makes sense.
This normally takes us 1 to 1 ½ hours to complete.
Guided Reading & Spelling Practice
The book we have just read was written by the same book as Gorilla. I would
like you to think back to that book and also think of the one we have just read.
Which one do you prefer? Please write a brief description explaining which one
and why in the back of your Writing Books.
LI: I can carry out a book comparison
Do some spelling practice, too.
This normally takes us 30 to 45 minutes to complete.
Science
Start off with a bit of a quiz of your knowledge, just like last week by playing Five
Lives if you like. Use the slides below.
Today we are going to find out more about how light is reflected. Remember
that reflected light is light that has bounced off objects. When light hits a rough
surface, it is scattered in all directions but when light hits a smooth and shiny
surface, light beams are reflected in the same direction, giving a clear reflected
image. For this reason mirrors, glass, shiny metal and even water (but only when
it’s still) are the best reflectors.
Why is it thought that only still water that can reflect a clear image?
Home Learning Week Commencing 20/04/20
Because a rough surface scatters light in all directions!
Which surface gives the best reflection?
A mirror!
Let’s investigate reflections a little more. You will need a mirror!
Below you find some possible different activities to carry out, please choose a
selection of your choice (at least 3 please):
1) Mirror Writing
Write a short message. Use the mirror to reflect it into mirror code and then
copy the coded message. Send or show your message to a friend or family
member and challenge them to decode using another mirror!
2) Mirror Maze
Trace over an up and down line whilst only being able to look at your hand in
the mirror! Can you keep to the line? Why is it so hard?
3) Mirror Multiplying
Tape a pair of mirrors so they hinge together. Investigate how different items
reflect in the mirrors. What happens if you open and close the hinge?
4) Reflective surfaces
Find as many surfaces as possible around your house (and beyond if you have
adult support) that can reflect an image. What do they have in common? Which
give a sharp reflection? Why? Which distort the reflection? Why?
Use the Science Mirror Resources document for more information on the tasks,
a template to record findings and an exciting creative challenge of making a
periscope – should you have the resources and grown-up to help!
Any work or findings of investigations to be recorded at the back of Writing
Books:
LI: I can investigate reflective surfaces and reflections
This normally takes 1 ½ - 2 hours to carry out.
Home Learning Week Commencing 20/04/20
Friday 25th April 2020
PE
It’s Friday again, when we would normally do PE. So how
about start off today by carrying out some some light
stretches and yoga:
https://www.youtube.com/user/CosmicKidsYoga
Alternatively, if you would like to carry out a daily mile jog
around your garden or start a Joe Wick’s workout, at 9am!
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAxW1XT0iEJo0TYlRfn6rYQ
This normally takes us 45 minutes to complete.
Maths
MNP Workbook 3B – Review 10 on p82
We have come to the end of the unit on picture and bar graphs so have a go at
the Review today, to revise everything we have learnt!
Remember to look at the scales on the side of the graph carefully, work out any
missing numbers – look back at all your past work to help remind you.
Can you finish by self-marking your work using your purple pen?
If you made any mistakes, try having a go at the question again.
This will be a slightly shorter lesson than normal… but it’s Friday! =o)
Spelling and Grammar
Choose 6 words and put them into sentences, underline them so they stand out.
Write them in your little yellow SPaG Book under the title:
Home Learning Week Commencing 20/04/20
Adding the Prefixes Auto and Super
Have you worked out what the prefixes mean yet?
Write a short definition.
• The prefix auto means ‘self’.
• The prefix super means ‘more, better or bigger than the usual’.
If you don’t understand any of the words look them up in a dictionary!
English
We’re going to have a slightly shorter English lesson today, too.
I would like you take the time finish off your playscripts today, or if you have
finished to re-read them with a purple pen and make some edits and
improvements.
Think about identifying the verbs and choosing more powerful one – use a
thesaurus if you have one. You might want to add more description to your
stage settings and stage directions too.
If you do want the challenge or would like to do more writing. Either choose
part of your play or you might want to do more (the whole thing) and take them
time to write it out again neatly with all the edits.
Friday 25th April 2020 and LI: I can edit and improve my playscript
This normally takes us 1 to 1 ½ hours to complete.
RE
Begin by looking at the beautiful art piece you
created last lesson on The Pentecost. Below you will
find the complete painting!
In what ways are your pictures different in what
ways are they similar?
Does yours also have Mary and the disciples with
flames above their heads?
Does yours have even more detail maybe?
Home Learning Week Commencing 20/04/20
Today we are going to look at some more art pieces, which depict The Pentecost.
Look at them each in turn, thinking about what you like and dislike about them?
Have any symbols been used, are any of them the same?
Have they missed any part of the story out?
Has the artist been able to reflect how Mary and the disciples are feeling?
http://www.titian.net/pentecost/
https://www.bibleodyssey.org/en/tools/image-gallery/h/he-qi-pentecost
Home Learning Week Commencing 20/04/20
https://fineartamerica.com/featured/pentecost-jim-whalen.html
You may wish to re-read the bible passage we looked at last week,
The Day of Pentecost: Acts 2: 1-15, 22 and 37-44
Then take some time to reflect:
Look back at the paintings – do you think these are a
good way of showing this event even though it is
a bit difficult to understand exactly what was happening?
What would your painting of this event look like?
Please take the time to create your own now, if you wish.
This normally takes us around 1 to 1 ½ hours to complete.
Music
In Music this term we are going to be
concentrating and learning about this famous
classical composer:
I am not going to tell you who he is yet.
I would like you to think, however, of any
questions you may wish to ask him?
Home Learning Week Commencing 20/04/20
Then we you have access to the Internet, I would like you to grab your Sketch
Book and some colouring pencils (2 or 3) and either make the room you are in
dark or close your eyes. I would then like you to listen the music, try and feel it
and without looking move your pencils over the paper whilst listening and create
a piece of artwork, which represents how the music sounds.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHHzop0ha6Y
Imagine your pencils are musical instruments and move them in time to the
tune. Imagine they are drumsticks beating or the bow of a violin. Move them
and draw in whatever way feels right. Then open your eyes and take a look!
Does your art piece look how you imagined?
This normally takes 20 to 30 minutes.
PSHE
Our topic this term is going to be ‘Wellbeing’.
I want you to first think about this word… What does it mean?
If you don’t know ask an adult to help and see if you can find out together.
This is currently a very important word, as we take even more special care to
look after and out for one another. There are some people in society, at the
moment, especially key workers (doctors, nurses, delivery drivers, pharmacists,
supermarket workers, rubbish collectors…) who are still working exceptionally
hard for us! Sometimes we need to remember to say thanks.
So today’s task:
Make a poster to thank your postman/postwoman and any delivery drivers,
family or friends that bring food and items to your house, for all their hard work.
Display it outside your front door where they will see it.
This will really make their day!
This normally takes 20 to 30 minutes.
Choosing Time
Finally, reward yourselves with carrying out an activity of your choice – of course
with your adult’s agreement. You may wish to go outside if it’s dry and build or
create some outdoor crafts, do some art, play with some Lego or your favourite
toy. You deserve it! Another incredible week of learning Class 3 – Well done!
Take care and have a lovely weekend.
Lots of Love,
Miss Sweeney
