Year 3 Friday 9th September 2022

Date: 9th Sep 2022 @ 3:42pm

Welcome to the first Friday Blog of the school year

We have had a great first week back at school. Everyone has settled in so well and enjoyed all our learning this week. 

We have started our new story, The Twits by Roald Dahl. We wrote our own character descriptions and planned some pranks for our writing next week. Everyone is taking great care with their presentation and spellings.

In our maths we have been looking at 3 digit numbers and place value. Everyone has had a good go and joined in with our whole class discussions. Have a look at our learning here.

Mrs Quillliam kicked off our Science this year with a super outdoor session exploring plants around school. We will be learning about plants throughout the year, using our Nature Journals. Have a look at our gallery to see some of our fantastic outdoor learning. Next week we begin our topic on Health and Nutrition.

We also started our history topic, The Stone Age. We read some Horrible Histories and talked about when the Stone Age was and what it was like to live then. 

Thank you for attending our Meet the Teacher meeting on Thursday. We have attached the PowerPoint below.

Today, Fr Michael visited us and blessed us for the coming year. Everyone was very thoughtful and shared some lovely ideas.

We had a very special Golden Assembly as we took some time to pay tribute to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. We had a minute silence and said some prayers for the Royal Family at this difficult time.
