Year 3 Home Learning tasks week 5

Date: 1st May 2020 @ 2:50pm

Hello Year 3!

We hope you are well and keeping yourselves safe and happy! Thank you to the children who have sent letters into school- we would love to receive some more and will reply to all the letters that we get!

Next week is the 75th anniversary of VE day and so all our activities this week are based around this important day.

Task 1:

Watch the following clip on the BBC website about VE day:

We would like you to create a poster explaining what happened on this day and why it was so important.

Task 2:

We want you to think back on our DT work on shelters. Can you find out what an Anderson shelter was and what it was used for during the War? We would like you to build your own shelter, thinking about what you would need to survive and be safe. This could be a model using lego etc, a shelter build with objects in your house or a shelter build outside in the garden. We would love to see photos of your shelters!

Task 3:

Design and make a commemorative medal for the veterans who fought during WW2, like Corporal Tom Moore who celebrated his 100th birthday this week. What do you think would be important to incorporate into your medal?

Remember to share your activities with us on our school twitter and facebook page. Join us on our school youtube channel to keep in touch with you teachers and be inspired with different challenges to take on!

Take care everyone, Mrs McAlynn and Mr Woodland
