A busy week for Year 3!
Thanks for all the recycled things. We have been designing and making our musical instruments.
Some of them are taller than us!!
We have been learning about fractions of numbers.
In Literacy we are studying Legends and the story Baira and the Vultures who had fire.
We have drawn ourselves as the tribe of the Rainforest - our Rainforest is nearly complete
Our first swimming lesson was very exciting and we all enjoyed it.
The disco was a real success.
Some of Year 3 are learning a song from Sing Up and will hopefully be leading the school singing it for Comic Relief Friday!
Looking forward to composing songs and of course dressing up next Friday!

Snowman Day
Well what a surprise to find ourselves out in the snow having a snowman competition.We have had a very busy week.
To catch up - apologies for lack of Blog - it has now been updated.
Year 3 are still making their classroom Rainforest - we are now researching the forest floor!
We have researched the emergent layer, the canopy and the understory.
Will print out the rest of the snow day photos when we are back in school.
Have a wonderful weekend and I hope everyone gets the chance to build a snowman, have a snowball fight and go sledging.

Last week
Kara - star of the week - fantastic art work
Singer of the week - Alex Millard
Jessica Edwards and Cheeney Sheppard got their Blue Badges and Alec Knight got his Red badge
This week
Monkey to Elena for achieving Challenge 1 Maths Badge
Well done to Jude Noon - Blue Badge and Max Tryfonos - Red Badge
This week we have been doing our writing project working from Traditional Fairy stories. First of all we drew a story map with characters and places on it. I hope the parents who came today enjoyed the games we played. Today Year 3 wrote some very potent spells for the wicked witch. Some examples were - to make you strong, wicked, naughty and to make a rainbow.
We have been partitioning and ordering numbers in maths.
Adding two digit and two digit numbers together and we are going to work on subtraction using a number line and adding on next week. We are learning some songs from Oliver. It is lovely to hear that some of the children are singing them at home!
I hope the weather holds and you have an enjoyable weekend.

Hurrah! Blog working again I hope.
Star of the week Cheeney Sheppard
fantastic artist and mathematician!
We have been researching more about the Victorians through a video about a young girl's life. Year 3 remembered all of it so do ask them about Maggie at school, working as a maid, working in the factory and working as a photographer.
We have taken a photo of the class which copies the photo we found of a Victorian class at Luckwell - hope to get it on the blog!
We have been working hard at our number bonds,
multiplying, partitioning numbers, doubling and halving - anyone wishes to learn some techniques for tables will be happy to show you after school next Thursday.
We have been drawing portraits of ourselves and learning how to draw in proportion ears, noses eyes and a mouth!
We have been looking at circuits in Science.
A very busy week as well as composing our own street seller songs!
In Literacy we have been comparing playscripts and prose and learning the wonderful story Rumplestiltskin.
Have a good weekend and I hope everyone smiles as it's smile day today!

Thank you to parents who supported their children's research into the Victorians - fantastic archives.
Really looking forward to next week.

Good-bye Year 3
We had a very hectic week, especially as everything needed to be packed in the classroom, ready for Mrs Christmas to take over Year 3 next year. It was lovely seeing her at the Leavers' Concert. Everyone in Year 6 did so well with her guidance.
In our class we all made a book each to leave as a present for next year's class to read. We had such fun writing them and did our best to use all the skills we'd learnt during the year, making them look professional.
We also thought of the changes ahead and how good Year 4 will be.
We had a great time at our Teddy Bears Picnic. So much delicious food to eat - thanks to our mums and dads.
So the it's the last day of Year 3. Time to play with our friends and share a fun day. 'Goodbyes and thank-yous' to everyone who has helped us so much. We made cards for them all.
A short message from me to say a big thank-you to those children who gave me cards and gifts. They were beautiful and very much appreciated. The messages really touched me. Thank-you all very much.
Enjoy a wonderful holiday everyone.
