Year 3

Welcome to Year 3's page all about the wonderful things that we get up to in 3S and 3W.

We are looking forward to a great year with loads of brilliant things going on.

 PE is currently on a Monday.  We have a Cheer Dance coach coming in to teach the  children.  Children need to come to school on a Monday wearing school PE kit.  This is a plain black or red sweatshirt and plain black tracksuit bottoms or legging.  T shirts should be plain white or red.  Children need to be wearing trainers and need to be able to remove their own earrings.  If they cannot remove their own earrings they should not be worn to school on a Monday.

Spelling and maths homework is set weekly on Edshed.  Children should be logging in and completing this each week.  All children have received their logins.

Children should be regularly logging in and using TT Rockstars.  This is a fun way for children to learn and practice their times tables.

Children should be reading regularly at home and returning their reading diaries to school each day.  If children read 5 times in a week they receive a raffle ticket and have the opportunity to win a book in our Friday awards assembly.

Week beginning 23rd Feb.

In Maths children have been learning about length.  We have been drawing and measuring lines using cm and mm.  We have also been converting between m, cm and mm.

We have started learning all about traditional tales in literacy. This week we have looked at the stories of the 3 little pigs, Little Red Riding Hood and the Elves and the Shoemaker.

This week, in geography, children compared the rainforest to a local wood.  We will be going on a visit to Ghost Woods and children will be making more comparisons when they are in the woods.

This week in science we started a new topic about soil.  We learnt about what soil is made from and looked at the different layers of formation.

 

On Tuesday we enjoyed a visit to the garrison squash courts to play squash.

                          We worked in groups of three to create some slime.  

 

 

 

 

On Friday we will be celebrating World Book Day.  We have a day of activities all about books and reading planned.  If your child wishes to dress up they can come to school dressed as a character from a book.
