Year 3 Home Practice 9th October 2020

Date: 8th Oct 2020 @ 6:33pm

Thank you for all of your amazing rock posters. We have put them up on display in our classroom and they look great. I have learnt lots of new things.

We have done a lot of hands on learning this week. We used charcoal and sand to create Stone Age cave paintings (we worked so well as a team to clean the classroom afterwards). We also did an investigation in Science where we looked at different qualities of rocks to choose which would be best for a Stone Age cutting stone (again great team work and sharing).

In Maths we have been using number lines to find missing numbers and to add numbers together. In English we have been hearing all about the monkeys and the Roly-Poly Bird in The Twits.

Friday was ‘Let’s Brighten Up a School Day.’ We focussed on all of the positive things – things we are good at and things we have in our lives that we are grateful for. It was really nice to hear how proud we all of ourselves and each other.
