YEAR 3
History and English
This week we are focusing on gathering facts and creating a non-fiction piece of writing. We have tied this together with our history learning to focus on the Romans. This will provide the children with plenty of opportunities to find out more about the Romans and their way of life.
Science
The children have been learning how to categorise animals according to where they live, what they look like and what they do. The children have enjoyed learning about the different types of animals and which groups they belong to.
PE - Orienteering
The children have been enjoying their PE topic of orienteering. They worked in groups to practise reading maps and following their instructions. The children will learn how to read a compass, follow instructions and work as a team during this topic.
Maths
The children have settled back in well after the Christmas holidays. They have been getting their brains back into gear by playing Maths games to remind them of their number bonds to ten and exchanging ones for tens and tens for hundreds.
Friday Dance sessions
Every Friday until Christmas Year 3 will be taking part in dance lessons provided by Premier Education. The children loved their first session and performed a group dance together. The children definitely had that Friday feeling during their session!
Maths
The children are looking at measurement in Maths. They have been thinking about all the different ways we can measure length, weight and volume. The children decided that a good way to measure the classroom was by how many children it takes to line up from one side of the class to the other.
Stone Age
The children had lots of fun this week playing team building games. They thoroughly enjoyed competing against each other and never gave up.
