Year 3 can tell the time!

We made our own analogue clocks to help us to tell the time.

What does the big hand tell us?

What does the little hand tell us?

What time is it when the big hand is pointing to 12?

What time is it when the big hand is pointing to 6?
What time is it when the big hand is pointing to 3?
What time is it when the big hand is pointing to 9?

Can you tell the time to the nearest 5 minutes?

How can the 5 times tables help us?

REMEMBER TO KEEP PRACTISING TELLING THE TIME USING ANALOGUE AND DIGITAL CLOCKS AND WATCHES!

It's also useful to remember how many days there are in 1 week and how many months there are in 1 year!  What are the days and months?

CAN YOU REMEMBER OUR RHYME FOR LEARNING HOW MANY DAYS THERE ARE IN A MONTH?
(Challenge your parents: can they remember the rhyme from when they were at school?)

FINALLY - how many days are there in 1 year?

Even Tom and Jerry have fun at Christmas!



What have Tom and Jerry learnt by the end of the cartoon? (Remember not to click on any other links on youtube without checking with a grown up!)

We have been talking about all the titles Jesus is known as


What does Messiah mean?


Jesus is the Messiah,
i.e.
the Prophet and the Priest and the King.


The words Messiah  and Christ have the same meaning. Their original-language forms are ha-Mashiyach (Hebrew) and ho Christos (Greek), both meaning “the Anointed one”.

What other names do we call Jesus Christ?

 


We have also listened to a piece of Music called Handel's Messiah. How does it make you feel?


We will be looking at this video of the Nativity


RE work - Christmas


We have looked at this video today to help tell the shepherds story!
How did they feel when the Angel Gabriel came to them?  How did they feel when they visited the Baby Jesus in Bethlehem?

A festive video!
