Week 4 Friday 29th November Year 3

RE

A group of children led us in a beautiful act of worship this week. They gathered, prepared, responded and listened with great respect.

Maths

In maths this week, the children have used their previous knowledge on adding two numbers with no exchange to adding two number across a ten.

Science
We are coming to the end of our Humans and animal unit and we have used lots of scientific language to describe and group animals according to what they eat.
We are moving on to our Food Waste topic next.
We are enjoying out poetry unit based on foods and have been exploring the language and phrases used in the poems to illustrate what we imagine as we read. It’s still making us very hungry!
The children worked well to describe their food items using similes today. Look at their mad hair too!
Last Friday! Well done!
We are enjoying our Music lessons- thanks Mrs McNamara! They are inspiring us to be creative and notice music notes in other areas of our learning.
We are going to be such busy bees so we have made a class calendar to help us keep track of December’s events.

O COME, O COME, EMMANUEL (Y3)

O come, O come, Emmanuel,
and ransom captive Israel,
that mourns in lonely exile here
until the Son of God appear.

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
shall come to you, O Israel!

O come thou Wisdom from on high,
who orders all things mightily.
To us the path of knowledge show,
and teach us in her ways to go.

Lines for  all year 3

The people who walked in darkness

have seen a great light.

They lived in a land of shadows,

but now light is shining on them.
