Year 3 Friday 28th June 2024

Welcome to your Friday blog

We have had a fun filled week of learning in Year 3 this week. We enjoyed Super Learning day and started to design our own Sandwiches for our Food Technology DT topic.

Home Practice

Continue with your wonderful reading every night. The regular reading this year has really had a huge impact on all your learning this year, across the curriculum. Well done!

Your maths and spelling challenges are live now. Do your best to complete these and challenge yourself with some training!

Continue to practise counting at home. Sing our songs and play our games. Deep understanding of the number system will help your child tackle more complex maths next year and beyond!

Your spellings this week are from the statuatory year 3/4 word list. Do your best with these, and try and learn as many as you can, remembering your spelling strategies.

This week in Year 3

We have been enjoying listening to Finding Alfie this week.  We found out that he was a D-Day hero and saved an entire family during the war. Next week we will finish the story and write newspaper reports about Michael and his adventure.

In Maths, we have been fine tuning the grid method for multiplication by using the inverse to find missing numbers. This was tricky, but will improve our understanding of the method for future learning!

On Thursday, we celebrated our annual Super Learning Day, when the children got to take part in a range of activities from meditation, traditional playground games and bowling, to foot golf, forest school and much more. Check out our gallery!

On Friday, Fr Michael invited us to celebrate the parish mass. The children were very respectful and enjoyed Fr Michel's sermon about being a good person.

In Science, we started an experiment to find out how flowers and plants absorb water to help them grow. We are patiently waiting for the results!

Your child's Seesaw account will be made live for a couple of weeks at the end of term. You will be able to access this using a QR which will appear on your child's report.

Have a lovely weekend

The Year 3 team
