You may be working from home but we still expect you to work just like the superstars you are in school, so keep that handwriting neat!

I hope you all had a restful weekend Year 3! Well done for your hard work last week, keep it up!
Below is todays home learning activities.
Set yourself a 10 minute timer and try to bead Mr Russel's Tip Top Times Table challenge!

Read the extract from the playscript of Oliver Twist. In your home learning book make a list/note of any words that you do not understand.
When you read it, perhaps you could get your family involved by all taking a different characters lines to read. In this scene there are 9 characters in total so some people may need to read more than one part. The characters are:
Narrator
Boy 1
Boy 2
Boy 3
Boy 4
Oliver
The master
Mr Limkins
Mr Bumble
A little information about Play Scripts:
Below I have attached a copy of a power point which further explains the features of a playscript. You don't need to do anything with it, it's just for reference.
Your first activity is to begin by thinking about what you already know and what you want to find out about Ancient Egypt. Write these two sub headings in your book and write your ideas under each one.
What I already know about Ancient Egypt
What I want to find out about Ancient Egypt
Next, read the first chapter of the Ancient Egypt book entitled 'Howard Carter gets a big surprise'.
Make sure you look up any words you are unsure of in a dictionary.
Activity 2
Using the timeline of Britain to help, draw your own copying down the significant dates. Once you have done that, add on when Jesus was born, when Howard Carter found the tomb, when you were born and any other members of your family. As well as this, add on today's date which should be the furthest right of your time line. You can also add on any other significant dates of things that have happened in your life time such as moving house, if you wish.
