w/c Monday 1st June

We hope you have had an enjoyable half term and have enjoyed some of the sunshine. By now, you should hopefully have found a home learning routine that works for you and your family. As we have suggested previously, completing English and maths tasks in the morning before moving onto other areas of the curriculum might work well for you as this is what you are used to in school. Oak National Academy and BBC Bitesize are continuing to support your home learning and have weekly schedules of interesting lessons.

Here is this week’s Year 3 schedule for BBC Bitesize:

Check out the lessons for this week on Oak National Academy:

Sun Safety

Light from the sun can be dangerous. Do you know how to stay safe in the sun? Find out by exploring this Newsround article.

This page has moved - CBBC Newsround

It is important to protect your eyes from bright lights, including the sun. Go through the PowerPoint presentation attached at the bottom of this page to learn more. Your pupils control the amount of light that enters your eyes. If too much light enters, it can damage the retina at the very back of the eye. To help protect your eyes, you can wear a brimmed hat and sunglasses with a UV rating.

Can you design your own eye protection? Perhaps a pair of sunglasses or a hat? Create an annotated sketch of your design. Can you create an advert for your design, which informs your customers of the effects of the sun and how your design can help to protect them?

Worksheets

Please find a new Home Learning Pack (Week 2) for this week. We’ll put the answers on next week so that you can mark your learning and see how successful you have been!
