The Teach Starter team has handpicked these resources for  Year 3 children to complete at home over one week with the help of their parents or guardians if schools are closed unexpectedly.

These curriculum-aligned, remote-learning resources cover the learning areas of English, Maths and Science, along with some craft and mindfulness activities.

If schools close, or if  Year 3 children need to be educated from home or homeschooled, teachers can print this pack of curriculum-aligned resources and send it home with students, download it digitally via a link, or email it to parents and guardians as a home-learning pack that allows students to work with minimal preparation and supervision.

Parents and guardians should be able to understand these tasks and activities and to set them in a homeschooling or home-learning environment, without requiring materials or resources found in a classroom. Resources in the pack can be completed on a tablet/iPad or printed and completed with a pen or pencil.

How to Use This Pack to Teach Students Working Remotely

A timetable for children who are learning from home is included, suggesting a day of the week and a time of the day to complete each resource. The pack also includes an editable version that you can adjust to suit your needs while teaching children remotely or using Google Classroom.

The amount of time you allow for a child to complete each educational home-learning task should be tailored to their needs. As a rule of thumb, give them as much time as they need, but watch for signs of fatigue that suggest children may need a break.

Whether following the suggested timetable or setting your own, be sure to include meal breaks and – most importantly – time to play! We recommend bundling this pack with your own at-home learning and educational activities, such as reading, outdoor play, fine motor skills, games and craft activities.
