Welcome to your Friday Blog

We have had another brillinat week in Year 3 with clay models, shadow experiments and brass instruments.

Home Practice

Continue with all your brilliant home reading. Everyone has made excellent progress with their reading this year and this is down to reading regularly at home. Keep it up!

Practise counting in 8's from 0 to 96 and back again.

Your Sumdog challenges and competitions are on all your times tables, division and your home spellings. This week we have been remembering to use syllables to spell independently in our writing.

Your home spellings all end in -ous.

poisonous, famous, enormous, glamorous, outrageous, dangerous, various, jealous, vigorous,serious, mountainous, tremendous, humourous, courageous, obvious, curious, hideous, spontaneous

This week in Year 3

We have been enjoying our new class novel, Toro, Toro by Michael Morpurgo. We have written a fantastic description of Anontito's farm and surrounding area and retold the chapter on Paco's birth.

In Maths we have started to learn how to divide using repeated subtraction. Everyone showed great understanding with this and asked some great questions!

In Art this week we made our clay models or our Roald Dahl characters. We will paint these and set the scenes next week! Check out our gallery.

In Science we investigated shadows and how they are formed. Everyone had great explanations, using the learning from last week on how light travels!

On Friday Year 1 came to visit with their fantastic Dragon writing. Year 3 gave some super feedback. Well done Year 3!

Have a lovely weekend
