Each task will be available on Google Classroom in the Year 3 Folder. All children should be familiar with logging onto Google Classroom, however, if you require further support contact us on [email protected] and we can provide a step by step guide.

Time table

Here is a timetable that can be used as a guide. We realise that for some it is not possible to access live videos due to working from home, to make this easier to manage, teaching video’s will be uploaded to Google Classroom so they can be accessed at a convenient time.

Each day children will be asked to complete the following sessions:

  1. Maths
  2. English
  3. Foundation/topic lesson
  4. Reading

If you require any further support please contact Year 3 staff using the email [email protected]. Children should also send images of completed tasks to this email and will receive feedback. We look forward to seeing all of their amazing work. 

Live Sessions

We will also be offering live sessions for children working from home. This will be held on a Google meet, which can be accessed via Google Classroom.

 

We will host 2 live meetings a day:

 

10:00-10:15 Registration and welcome via Google meet.

Children should log onto their google classroom and access the ‘Year 3’ class. Click on the meeting link to access.

Staff will greet the children and introduce them to today’s tasks.

Whole school art project.

17th December 2020ajennings

The children at Harton Primary School have been celebrating their positive attributes as part of a whole school art project. They drew a self-portrait and thought carefully about a positive word to describe themselves, there were some brilliant ideas and fantastic drawings.

The children were able to recognise their best qualities and the things that they like about themselves, helping them to reach their full potential. We were so impressed with how much they celebrate their own achievements and it was so lovely to see how proud of themselves they are.
