Welcome to your Year 3 Blog.
Here you will find out about all the fantastic learning we have been doing throughout the week and see your home practice for the coming week. This will help your children with all aspects of their learning. We will set weekly spelling and maths challenges with the focus on regular practise of key skills.
We have enjoyed reading The Twits in English and have done lots of amazing writing. We have been focussing on using exciting words in our sentences.
In Maths we have been learing about ordering, partitioning and counting three digit numbers. Everyone showed great persistence and resilience with their learning this week as it did get tricky. We have set a Sumdog challege to consolidate the skills taught in class. Do a little maths practice everyday to make all our new learning sticky!
In History we have been learning about the Stone Age. Everybody has loved this topic so far, lots of us have already learnt lots of facts from books we have been reading at home.
In our Science we studied lots of different rock types and explored how different rocks have different properties. We also looked at what rocks were used for during the stone age.
Home Practice
Read to somebody at home every night for 20 minutes. Talk about what you have read.
Remember, your books can be changed any day so remember to pop them into the red box.
Here are your spellings to practise this week. We will have a spelling test on Tuesday. These Spelling rules are also on your Sumdog Spelling challenge to help you practice. The words will be different but the rules will be the same. Remember our rules for past tense verbs.
