Good morning Year 3,
Well done to all of the children who completed the work yesterday. Today, we have a reading comprehension about the Stone Age which is what we are learning about in History.
There is some English work on verbs. Please look at the identifying verbs quiz first then complete the activity.
In maths we are looking at how to represent numbers up to 100. Again look at the slide-show first and then complete the activity.
Finally, in computing there is a link to learn how to touch type, then you can practice by telling us about yourself.
Mr Gray will be teaching a lesson on Microsoft Teams at 11 o’clock. See you then.
Remember you can email me if you have any questions or problems.
h.banks@st-martindeporres.bham.sch.uk
See you all soon

Tuesday 8th September - Message from Mr Gray:
Dear Parents,
Thank you
Thank you for all the messages of support. We really appreciate your thoughtfulness especially as the self-isolation is going to have a significant impact on your families - for example, we know that for some of you, bringing siblings to school is now impossible as you have no one to look after your child in Year 3 who is self-isolating. We also know that not being able to come to school; go out to shops; attend places of worship; visit the park and nor have visitors in the home is going to be very difficult for your child.
How are we going to support your child and your family?
Every day, Mrs Laird, Mrs Banks or Mrs Price will be posting work here, on the school website. From tomorrow, at 11am, I will teach a short lesson where I take an activity and talk the children through it before answering questions. This will be done through Microsoft Teams to which all children have access through their BGfL365 login. By 10am tomorrow morning, your child will receive an invitation to join a closed group called "Year 3". We will use this as a pilot in order to develop our capacity to deliver video lessons across the school. There will undoubtedly be teething problems with technology but we will get there. You can also access some excellent lessons on the Oak National Academy Website - https://classroom.thenational.academy/subjects-by-year/year-3
As we go forward, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to email me.
God bless
Mr Gray

Monday 7th September - Message from Mr Gray:
Dear Year 3 Parents/ Guardians,
We have just been informed that a Year 3 child who was in school on Friday has tested positive for Covid 19. The child had no symptoms when in school, the family concerned were asked to get tested as they had had contact with a positive case. Click here for: Government Guidance-for-full-opening-schools, please see section 9.
Following Government advice (above), the year 3 class need to self-isolate for 14 days from when they last had contact with the positive case, which would have been Friday 4th September.
Household members (and siblings) of a child who is sent home do not need to self-isolate themselves unless the child who is self-isolating subsequently develops symptoms. If someone in the class that has been asked to self-isolate develops symptoms themselves within their 14-day isolation period they should follow guidance for households with possible or confirmed coronavirus (COVID-19) infection. They should get a test, and:
Testing: The latest government advice for parents is available here: What-parents-and-carers-need-to-know-about-early-years-providers-schools-and-colleges-in-the-autumn-term.
Whilst your child is self-isolating at home, please check the school website, where Mrs Laird, Mrs Price and Mrs Banks will be posting learning activities.
We are genuinely disappointed to have had to make this decision tonight, however the guidance is clear. When or if further information becomes available school will inform parents as soon as possible but we will keep in touch with everyone regularly by email.
Kind regards
Mr Gray
Dear Year 3 Parents/ Guardians,

Click here for: Government Guidance-for-full-opening-schools, please see section 9.

If someone in the class that has been asked to self-isolate develops symptoms themselves within their 14-day isolation period they should follow guidance for households with possible or confirmed coronavirus (COVID-19) infection. They should get a test, and:
- if the test delivers a negative result, they must remain in isolation for the remainder of the 14-day isolation period. This is because they could still develop the coronavirus (COVID-19) within the remaining days.
- if the test result is positive, they should inform their school immediately, and should isolate for at least 10 days from the onset of their symptoms (which could mean the self-isolation ends before or after the original 14-day isolation period). Their household should self-isolate for at least 14 days from when the symptomatic person first had symptoms, following guidance for households with possible or confirmed coronavirus (COVID-19) infection.
Testing: The latest government advice for parents is available here: What-parents-and-carers-need-to-know-about-early-years-providers-schools-and-colleges-in-the-autumn-term.

Key Instant Recall Facts are designed to support the development of the mental skills that underpin much of the maths work in schools. They are particularly useful when calculating, either adding, subtracting, multiplying or dividing. Take a look at conkermaths.org for tips and hints.
