Guided Reading
As you are all doing such a wonderful job with our history topic, we thought today’s guided reading task should be to help us to learn more about the prehistoric ages. Read the article carefully about an archeologist’s surprising discovery that makes us realise the people in the prehistoric times may not have been as different to us as we might have initially thought! Once you have read the article try your best to answer the comprehension questions!

Maths
Usually, we put aside Thursday for some Times Table Rock Stars time. This week, we are keen to finish the money unit of work. Feel free to continue to practise your times tables in TTRS over the half-term break!
Yesterday in maths, we added money and amounts. Today we are looking at the inverse of this and subtracting money and amounts. Watch the video, then have a go at the worksheets below by clicking on the link. Please do not feel you have to print, look on screen and write your answers on paper at home. Use the answers link to mark and check your own work.
Teams meetings-
3ST- 9:00-9:30am
3M 10:30- 11am
We are so pleased so many of you feel confident enough to share a snippet of your lockdown lives by doing show and tell. It really makes us smile seeing you passionately talking about adorable pets, achievements and a host of other exciting things. We plan on carrying this on so if you do feel like you would like to share something (it really can be anything) please just e-mail and let us know.
We also hope to discuss our historical enquiry question so bring your notes as we are keen to hear which age you would rather live in and the evidence for your decision! We can’t wait to bounce off and build on each other’s ideas for this and hope it helps you with your writing task later this morning :)!
History
In today’s lesson, we are asking you to write down the answer to our historical enquiry question, which age would you rather live in the Stone Age, Bronze Age or Iron Age? We hope that the teams call has given you a chance to share and build on your initial ideas. We know that you all have such interesting justifications for your choices and are really looking forward to reading them. Once you have written your response and drawn/labelled your picture we would like to see your answers so please send them to- year3@abbeyroadprimary.co.uk
