Good morning Year 3!

I hope you've all had a restful weekend and had lots of fun. I am sure you are ready for a great week of home learning. I'm looking forward to seeing more of your brilliant work. 

Will you be our star of the day?


Wake up with Joe Wicks or GoNoodle. Get your body moving! 

Here are your 3 activities for today:

1. English 

We are looking at a new story this week. Follow the link below.

Read the background information on pages 3 and 4. We already know a lot about Iceland from our Reykjavik topic! Now read the story on pages 5 and 6. You can also listen to the story using the link on page 5. Complete the activity on page 7. These are all unfamiliar words you probably do not know. You need to find out their meaning and write a definition. Find the words in the story to help you.

2. Maths 

Today is lesson 9 on fractions. Click on the link below and scroll down to lesson 9, 'comparing fractions with the same denominator'.
