We have started reading the Iron Man and can’t wait to find out what happens next. In addition, we have been learning about the features of a newspaper report and have been looking at the children’s newspaper: First News.
This week we will be working on telling the time. Please take any opportunity you have at home to practise this.
Year 3 have started their topic on the Stone Age. Today we visited a "cave" and thought about how to describe our experiences. In the afternoon we have been learning about archaeologists and thinking about what an archaeologist in the future would find out about our lives.
This week in Year 3 Science we have been learning how to make compost.
Year 3 have been talking about climates in Geography and writing a postcard from either a hot or cold climate. They have had to carefully imagine what it would be like to be there.
Year 3 have loved reading Dear Greenpeace. In the story, Emily finds a whale in her pond. We went out to the school pond to imagine what we could see there. We wrote letters to Mrs McCallum and Mrs Edwards to tell them all about what we saw. - the children thought of some very interesting creatures...and they want to keep them all! Well done Year 3!
