Year 3 Homework
Homework to be handed in by Wednesday 13th July.
Numeracy.
In maths this week we have been looking at handling data. We have collected data from our
class mates regarding our favourite sports and recorded the data using a tally chart. We
then presented the data we collected in a bar chart. For your homework this week we
would like you to collect some data from your family. You may want to find out about their
favourite colour, favourite sports team or favourite food. Can you record the data in a tally
chart and then present your findings in a bar chart?
Literacy.
In literacy this week we have been looking at similes, metaphors and personification. For
your homework this week we would like you to write a few different examples of both to
describe what you can see in the picture below.
Remember, a simile contains like or as (The snow shimmered like glitter).
A metaphor says that something is something else (The boy was a fierce tiger, prowling
through the forest).
Personification gives something human features (The cold grabbed the girl, refusing to let
go).
Try to think of a couple of examples for each feature and remember to label each one as
either use of a simile, metaphor or personification.
