Good morning Year 3,
WOW, Miss Faragher and I are so impressed with the work that we recieved yesterday! And all of the love heart pictures for Mrs Thewlis to create a brilliant video with. In case you didn't know, Mrs Thewlis recently uploaded a video of the staff sending a picture of themselves with a love heart ... link is attached below in case you haven’t seen it. She has asked us to challenge everybody in our class to send a picture of themselves doing a love heart with their fingers. She will then make a little video/collage and upload to the twitter and website pages. There’s also a prize for the class who get the most responses! So send your pictures in as soon as you can!

Let's get to it! ANSWERS FROM 28.04.2020
First of all, here are the answers to yesterday's sentence of the day and fluent in 5.
Suddenly, rain started pouring down so fast! The sun had been out all day and then the rain came. That meant one thing… a rainbow! It was beautiful and so colourful. There were so many different colours, I couldn’t believe my eyes!
Capital letter for Suddenly because it starts the sentence
Exclamation mark rather than question mark. It is not asking a question.
meant – spelt wrong beautiful – spelt wrong colourful – spelt wrong
1/3 of 12 =4 1/8 of 32 = 4
1/4 of 44 =11 1/10 of 90 =9
Today's sentence of the day
a mounten range is a group of mountains found on land or unda the see_ Sum mountains yoused to be volcanos like ben nevis in Scotland Snowdon in whales.
Errors in green:
-Mountain is spelt incorrectly. It has the ai sound like rain
-There needs to be a full stop at the end of the sentence.
-Ben Nevis needs capital letters because it is a proper noun – it is the name of something.
7 unmarked errors (including a 2 in 1 error)
Today's fluent in 5
Focus on non-unit fractions
2/3 of 12 3/8 of 40
4/10 of 50 2/4 of 44
Remember non-unit fractions are similar to unit fractions to work out, they just have one extra step. Divide the whole number by the denominator (bottom part of the fraction). Whatever answer you get, times it by the numerator (top part of the fraction). E.g. 2/3 of 30 30 (whole number) ÷ 3(denominator) = 10
10 (answer) x2(numerator) = 20 20 = answer.
Today's CC activity:
Yesterday, we introduced mountains as part of our 'Can I grow lettuce on a mountain summit?' topic. Today, you are going to do the same activity of a KWL grid but for rivers.
Get a piece of paper: Draw a table like this.

Once you have done all of that, watch this BBC bitesize video about rivers, https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/z849q6f/articles/z7w8pg8
Read all of the information below the video, then there is a quiz at the bottom. Have a go at that and see what score you get!
