Task 5 : Spelling and handwriting

Here are the words you will be

learning this week. They all have

a short /u/ sound spelt as ‘o’.

Please practise in 2 different

ways: one of your choice from

the list below and the other by

using your joined handwriting.

I have attached a copy of the

words on the school website you

can print out. Alternatively, you

can always just copy the words

neatly in your book by looking

carefully at the joins used in

each word.

White Rose Home Learning, Year 3:

Summer Term, Week 2 (w/c 27th April)

https://whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/year-3/

or just look at the screen to do the activity

3. Check the answers

THE ROMANS IN BRITAIN

Over the next few weeks we will be learning about

the Romans in Britain. I will set you an activity each

week but feel free to do your own activities and re-

search on the topic. There are plenty of ideas

online.

Use the attached PowerPoint (it is from twinkl) and

make notes about when the Romans invaded Brit-

ain. Also use the maps in the PowerPoint which

show the spread of the Roman Empire.

Use your notes to create a timeline showing the

spread of the Roman Empire. Your timeline must

have dates and events, but you could also include

illustrations and maps. You could complete this ac-

tivity in your home learning book or on paper.

Romans invade Britain

Conquering Britain—almost 2000 years ago.

In class we should now be starting the topic of

Judaism.

What do you know about Judaism? Do you have

any Jewish friends?

https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/znwhfg8/articles/zh77vk7

This is a good starting point. Watch the video

and read the information on ‘What is Judaism?’

Can you list 10 facts?

PART II: you have now become an expert

about diet and nutrition. Congratulations!

For homework this week I would like you to

watch another video of M.me Cantin: Click

on this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?

v=8Z0qbWMF6po.

Please try and watch it 3 times:

1. Just watch it.

2. Watch it and try to sing

along and mime with M.me Cantin

3. Can you sing the song and mime along

all by yourself? Sing it to somebody else!

4. Make a poster illustrating the song. If you

use power point you might want to try and

record yourself singing it: Id love to receive

some of your creations!

Here is another app you might want to try:

Chatterpix - take/choose a photo, draw a

line and record your message.

Roman mosaics.

http://www.primaryhomeworkhelp.co.uk/romans/mosaics.html

The floors of Roman buildings were often covered with mosaics (tiny coloured stones which

were put together to create a picture or pattern.)

Many mosaics captured scenes of history and everyday Roman life.

Research Roman mosaics (if you type KS2 it often comes up with a child friendly website).

What kind of images do you find? You could print some to stick in your home learning book.

Can you copy one you like or even design your own? Use colour pencils or whatever you have
