Hi … Year 3!

We hope that you are all safe and well (and

your families and loved ones are too).

We hope you had a lovely Weekend?!

We are really missing you all!

We love to see pictures of your work and activities…we have all

really loved seeing what you are up to and creating…or you can

upload them onto the Brownlow Learning Hub Facebook page

yourselves.

Please make sure you contact your Teacher every week by Friday

to let us know you are safe and well, and show us your pictures.

Please also contact us should you need any support or help.

Below we have put together a timetable for Week 5 of this Spring

Term. Please remember - you can do the activities in any order on

any days…swap them around if you want depending on the weather

and what you fancy doing at home. Please don’t feel

pressurised…when we are back we will focus on catching up on all the

Maths and English, so focus on the things that you can do and let us

know if we can help you with other things. There are regular emails

and updates on our school website – look here - https://www.brownlowprimary.org/home-learning-3l-3gc-3cj/

If you need to contact us, please email any of the team.

We are checking emails frequently!

We miss you all and hope to see you very, very soon x

Watch the video clip of chapter five – see if you can spot these words.

When you hear each word click your fingers!

Use a dictionary or the internet to find out what these words mean.

Word Meaning

bargain

English Task 3 –

Grammar Task Determiners: A or An?

Remember: we use a before a word beginning with a consonant and we

use an before a word beginning with a vowel (a, e, i, o, u).

For example: Give me a book. Give me an egg.

Challenge

Make up some of your own sentences correctly using a or an.

Science Week 5 - Plants This week the children will learn that the stem carries

water to other parts of the plant.

How water is transported within plants.

Discuss how the stem is like a straw and sucks up water from the

roots and carries it to the rest of the plant.

TASK

1. Set up an experiment with a white flower. Put the white flower in to water with food colouring

in and leave it for a few hours. Keep checking it. Look at what happens! (The petals should change

colour).

If you can’t get a flower/ food colouring watch the following link- REMEMBER TO OPEN IT

USING INTERNET EXPLORER!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HeIS-GK0cYI

Extension-

2. Write up what happened in the experiment and draw a picture with labels. Take a photo of

the experiment and print it off and stick it on if you want to.

Try out other experiments – split a flower stem in half- can they make a flower where half the

flower is a different colour to the other half by putting each separate part of the stem in to 2

different coloured parts of water?

This is how the supermarkets produce rainbow coloured flowers to sell!!

Art 5 Leaf Rubbings.

1. Complete the attached scavenger hunt with an adult making sure you wash your

hands well after you have finished!

2. Collect some leaves as you do your scavenger hunt and bring them home with you

to do some leaf rubbing art.

3. You need wax crayons or pencil crayons and paper. See the following you tube clips

for some examples. Have fun!

Friday or Half Term Family Activity!

Next week is Half Term

Today or one day next week with your family we would like you

to go exploring!

https://www.britishorienteering.org.uk/

In Year 3 we would usually go exploring in our local Melton

Country Park…we would use a special map and look for signs

to help us explore. This is called Orienteering.

I have attached a simple map and a tricky map! You can decide

which one you do…please remember to social distance at all

times…but enjoy exploring the park.

https://www.britishorienteering.org.uk/index.php?filter=1&pg=pocs&poc_region=0&poc_ca

tegory=0&has_map=0&postcode=le13+1pb&view=&course=394

If you don’t live in Melton…then look on the website for maps

in your local area.

https://www.britishorienteering.org.uk/index.php?filter=1&pg=pocs&poc_region

=0&poc_category=0&has_map=0&postcode=le13+1pb&view=

Here are some simple tips:

To help make your experience enjoyable below are a few tips for orienteering:

1. Orientate your map - Always make sure that your map is the correct way round

or orientated. This means that the features which are in front of you on the ground

are in front of you on the map. You can also orientate your map using a compass by

making sure that the north lines on the map point the same way as the north or red

end of the compass needle. Each time you change direction you should change your

grip on the map so that the map is still orientated to north.

2. Fold your map - Always make sure that you fold your map so that you can easily

see the part of the map where you are.

3. Thumb your Map - To help you know where you are on the map it helps if you

mark your position on the map with your thumb. As you move along the ground

you should move your thumb to your new position on the map.

For more help and tips take a look at our newcomers guide.

We hope you enjoy orienteering at Melton Country Park. If you would like to try

orienteering at an event please take a look at our website.

For more orienteering like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter.

If you would like further maps please email Mrs Lambert

klambert@brownlowprimary.org
