Good morning Year 3! 

I hope you're all well and staying safe at home. 

Wake yourself up with Joe Wick's or learn a new dance with GoNoodle. 

Here are your 3 activities for today:

1. Today we are going to look at lesson 6 on fractions. Follow the link below. Select the lesson 'identify and describe non-unit fractions'. Select 'start lesson'. Complete the quiz at the beginning. Watch the video and complete the activities.

Hopefully you are starting to feel a little more confident with fractions. 
2. For English today we are going to plan our information text that we will write tomorrow. Follow the link below to the text 'The Truth about Trolls'.

As you reread the text on pages 4 and 5 look at the structure of the text and the sub headings they use. We are going to be focusing on pages 14 and 15 today. Look at the sub headings on page 14 or think of your own.  Use the plan on page 15 to decide what you will write in your information text under each sub heading. 

Think about:
-what your troll looks like 
-what they eat
-where it lives
-interesting or funny facts


3. Today we are going to be coding using scratch (follow the link below). Watch the tutorial video to understand how to code your sprite (character). Can you make your sprite  move across the screen and make a noise. Can you change the backdrop? Have a play around and see what else you can do. You can watch some other tutorials to see what else you can learn.
