Primary 3

Good morning

I hope everyone’s brain has woken up from the holiday by now and you are all managing to complete some activities at home.

Maths and Numeracy – Estimation

Yesterday we practised estimating how many objects, today we are going to practise estimating where a number goes on a number line. We have practised this in class so it should be familiar.

1) Have a go at this game (I have put 2 links as the bottom one is for tablets):

2) Using your whiteboard or blue jotter, draw a 0-100 number line like the one below and pick a number between 1 and 100. Estimate where this number will go by drawing a little line. Repeat for a few more numbers.

You can change the numbers at the start and end of your number line. If you found this too tricky, try a 0-20 number line and pick numbers between 1 and 20, for example. Or try a 10-20 number line and pick numbers between 10 and 20.

If you would like a challenge, make the number range even bigger, or try a 100-200 number line if you would like to practise 3 digit numbers, for example.

Literacy – Grammar

1) Watch this video about capital letters.

2) Please log in to sumdog.com and find a Grammar challenge called ‘Punctuation and Capital Letters.’ Remember all the types of punctuation we have learned so far and where we should use capital letters. (The start of a sentence, people’s names, place names, days and months…)

If you are unable to access Sumdog, try writing some sentences of your own in your blue jotter making sure you use punctuation and capital letters. ( . ? , ! )
