Miss Kinsella – Third Class Work for April 20th – May 1st 2020

Work for Third Class April 20th– May 1st 2020:

 

Hello Third Class,

Hope you are all keeping safe and well! Here is some work to keep you busy for the next week. If parents wish to contact me to discuss any aspect of the work, my email address is misskinsella@outlook.com and I can answer any questions there – no matter how big or small! Don’t be afraid to email! Any work you complete, you can send on via email and I can read through it and correct it. I have uploaded a sample timetable (at the very bottom of this post) on how to allocate completing the work each day, but you can complete the work in any way/any day which suits you best. This is the first and second week’s worth of work but in separate word documents (still new to this long-distance learning!) Try complete as much work as you can, but just try your best. Stay safe and keep washing your hands!

**Any work with 2 asterisks is work to complete if you have finished the rest of that unit of work.

If some of the images aren’t visible, you can check the CJ Fallon website for ‘Get Set’, ‘Mathemagic ‘, ‘Small World History’ and ‘Small World Geography/Science’.

English:

  • Jolly Phonics: The 12 spellings this week focus on the ‘a’ sound:

Swap, waft, swamp, wand, wallet, squad, swatch, squat, quality, wallaby, waddle, squabble

You can check the meanings of these words in the dictionary and learn the spelling.

Remember, Look, Say, Cover, Write, Check.

****Mrs Murphy’s group:

  1. Continue 1 SNIP per fortnight and make sure to give your child a spelling test weekly on this (use look, say, cover, write and check method). You can also play Snap using flashcards.
  2. Toe by Toe daily until 3 dots.
  3. Get the children to read daily at their own level, no more than 3 words per page that they can’t say. Ask the children questions based on it to ensure understanding. Pick out high frequency words.
  4. Practice these balance exercises:
  5.  Balance on one foot, Practice walking on tippy toes, Practice bunny hop
  6. Throw and catch a ball or beanbag

**** SNIP is available online to download or print.

  • Read at Home: Read the next week of reading and answer questions out loud (no need to write answers). Also read books at home for 15 minutes at your own level.
  • Get Set: ‘Deserts in Africa’ Read the information about the deserts on pgs 182-185 (I have included photos of the pages) Answer in writing the following questions into a copybook or onto a sheet: Remember to rule your page, write the title and the date.

3: Could you really eat a pudding made of sand?

4: What does the ‘incoming sea’ do to all the things made of sand?

Gaeilge:

  • Bun go Barr scéal: ‘Sos do Dháidí’

Maths:

  • Hit The Button: Revise your tables using this website and/or your tables book or any other websites you may have found. We have covered 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 in our tables so far, so practising regularly is important.
  • Mental Maths: Complete the next week of Mental Maths questions, problem solving and Friday review.
  • Mathemagic: Chapter 22/23 Multiplication and Division of 7. We covered groups of 7 in our tables so these two chapters will help revise these tables.
  • Chapter 22: Complete pgs 107/108 – follow the instructions on the page which will tell you to write the addition + sentences and also the multiplication sentences X. Answer the questions on these pages into a copy, ruling your margins, writing a title and date. Don’t worry it can be any sheet or copy – it doesn’t have to be a maths copy. Spend 2-3 days on this chapter of revision.
  • Chapter 23: Complete pgs 109/110 – follow the instructions on the pages of writing the subtraction sentence and division sentence.

History:

  • Read Unit 10: Transport (underneath) Read pg 80/81 this week, focus on the timeline of the change in transport – was it quick or slow changes? Look at the photos in the book and compare to what you would see outside nowadays.

Geography/Science:

Art: You can create something at home if you wish, or colour in a mindfulness colouring sheet. I’ve included one from Twinkl but you can do your own one if you prefer.

PE:  Go Noodle have some great workouts as does Joe Wicks – The Body Coach. His workouts are on YouTube and he does one online each morning too!

SPHE: Healthy eating is important. It’s essential to make sure our diets (what we eat) are filled with foods that are nutritious and good for our bodies (along with having the odd treat too!) Have a look at the food pyramid and see what foods you eat are present on it. Remember if it’s the bottom of the pyramid, you need to make sure it’s in your diet regularly, and if it’s near the top you should have fewer of those foods.

Religion:

  • ‘Grow in Love’ read pgs 64 and 66 including the poem. These pages focus on Pentecost where the Holy Spirit was sent to the people.

****You can complete this work in any way you wish. It might be easiest to space out the work of each subject over a number of days: as shown in the sample timetable which may be of use to you.
