Primary 3 Homework – Week from 13th March
After lots of work on polar bears we are moving onto penguins this week. We are also going to learn about the explorers who first travelled to the north and south poles.
Best wishes,

Numeracy
We are still working on halves and quarters. The children are getting used to identifying these fractions of shapes. The game Fraction Flags would be good practice. Please mix up the choice of halves, quarters, three quarters etc.

We are generally struggling more with finding fractions of numbers. To work on this, have a go at home at working out:
½ of 14 ½ of 22 ½ of 30
¼ of 12 ¼ of 24 ¼ of 40
½ of 32 ¾ of 12 ¾ of 24
In the next two weeks we are also revising things we have looked at over the year. Any chances to talk about time what time it is (12 hour clock, analogue and digital) would be helpful.
Reading
Pages from class books to be read at home will be written down in the grids as usual.
Spelling
More words that people have been finding tricky. Please could we practise them using our usual look, say, cover, write and check method and then write sentences using them?
