You can now check your answers.
Geography
I was asked by some Year 3 children if I could set some homework on volcanoes. So here it is. You will need to complete some research to help you. Click here to access Purple Mash. You then need to choose a picture of a volcano and describe it.
I look forward to reading your descriptions! Can you use any scientific vocabulary? Can you find out what the scientific name for volcano is?

Today we are going to learn about expanded noun phrases.
An expanded noun phrase adds more detail to the noun by adding one or more adjectives. An adjective is a word that describes a noun.

Art activity
When we were together in class, we did a lot of work about mark making- either with pencils, pens, graphite or paint.

When we were together in class, we did a lot of work about mark making- either with pencils, pens, graphite or paint. Here is an activity that builds on mark making and is really fun and experimental. It uses everyday things to ‘paint’ with. One example is coffee: You can experiment with different strengths to get different ‘colours’. To paint with, look around the kitchen to see what you can find to make marks with. |
 |
Look at this short video to get you started:
When your work is dry, perhaps you could use it to collage another piece of work with.
Music activity
|
Here is another music challenge for you. Lots of you have been enjoying Busy Beats, which is great. Lots of you have been following instructions well and making some great music so today I have an exciting challenge for you. We are going to make words with music! |
 |
As we spoke about in class, a looooooooong time ago, we use the first 8 letters of the alphabet to name the notes.
So, as it is the alphabet, we can create some musical words.
First write down some words that you can think of using just the letters A, B, C, D, E, F and G e.g. dad (Try and be creative, can you think of a word no-one else will?)
 |
Now on Busy Beat (in Purple Mash) you are going to use your words as music. Do you remember when we play more than one note at a time, we call it a chord, so here the three notes D A D above the ripplers are making a chord, as they play at the same time.
|
If you can’t find the letter you want displayed along the top, in the section called synth, click on any letter you have placed there, and you can change it by pressing on any of the keys, the letter name will change as try the different keys
When you have added your words you can add some drums, experiment, make the words play beautiful music. Can you alter the tempo and use the doors we learnt about last week.
This may be tricky, but don’t worry, experiment and have fun, we are just thinking about how to use and name the notes, about melody and chords.
Enjoy and have fun. I have loved hearing your work.
