This week in Year 3, we have been practising adding and subtracting money to find out the value of shopping bills and how much change to expect. The children have used number lines to show their working out.
The homework for this week involves solving some problems involving money. The children will bring it home on a green sheet. In addition to this, any opportunities for them to work with real money (counting coins, adding or estimating shopping bills, saving up for something, working out change, and so on) would really help them with their understanding.
Please return the sheet to school by Friday 26th April.
We will continue to give out a spelling list at the start of each week for the children to practise at home - little and often is the best approach.
After the holiday, we will be starting a Geography topic all about the country of Greece. For homework, we would like the children to find out some facts about the country. This can be presented in any way they like (although please send it in on paper and not electronically as we will be sharing it at their desks).
As you have been so busy with the story boxes and science week homework, we are not sending out any new homework this week.
If you want to do another activity from the grid you took home for science week, then that would be great.
You will get a new homework activity next Friday.
