Primary 3 Homework – Week from 19th December
Because this is a shorter homework week, I have only put down a couple of things to look at. Homework jotters won’t come home, and we won’t be having new reading books.
I hope you all have great holidays.

Numeracy
We’ve been finishing strongly in numeracy, getting the hang of empty number lines. This strategy will provide a strong basis both for written techniques (i.e. chimney sums) and mental calculation. It would be great to cement this before we all head off. (As before, please practise suitable sums based on the examples below.)
23 + 34 =
141 + 26 =
352 + 124 =
228 + 236 =
356 + 244 =
Spelling
Our final dictation (Thursday) will focus on the ‘oa’ sound.
boat coat road groan loaf
toast soap just float
Last week we struggled with the ‘ai’ sound, so a bit of practice on ‘oa’ would be good to help us all to finish on a high note.
