Summer 1 Week 3

Year 3 have had a short but busy week. In English, we have been reading The Iron Man and identifying interesting vocabulary. The children have been using this vocabulary to write their own descriptions.

In Maths, the children have been learning about unit fractions and non-unit fractions. Children have been drawing pictures and bar models to show different fractions and applying their skills to solving problems.

In Design and Technology children made a sandwich following their design. Then we had a picnic tpo test the sandwich before their evaluated. The children demonstrated great cutting, spreading and organising skills while making their sandwiches. The children were able to describe the different food groups and could identify the ingredients which were healthy.

On Friday,  we had the May Procession to honour Mary. The children were reverent throughout.

The children had a wonderful time at Gobion’s Wood. We observed many wild flowers growing in the woods and were amazed when we saw the fantastic bluebells.

Thank you to all of the children who made their volcanoes, I can see a lot of effort went into each of them. Thank you parents for your support. The classroom looks wonderful! Next week we will make our volcanoes erupt. If you have not yet finished your volcano, please send it in next week.

Have a lovely weekend.
