Superstars

Congratulations to our superstars in year stars in year 3 who shared their special achievements this week.


Scratch coding

Year 3 have started to use Scratch for coding. We have explored adding sprites and backdrops with different commands. I think we enjoy adding lots of sounds the most. 


Mindful colouring

For Wellbeing Wednesday year 3 coloured some mindful capabaras whilst watching some soothing ocean scenes. A lovely relaxing way to start our Wednesday. 


Role play

We did some role play today to recreate scenes from our class text 'A pebble in my pocket'

We had some very creative actors.


OAA lesson 1

Today we began our outdoor and adventurous activity with some team games. Then we had a leader who gave us some instructions to follow. These started easy but became more difficult when we had to remember four steps. Then we had to hunt around the playground for Ordnance Survey symbols and we had to work out what each symbol meant. 


Basketball

We enjoyed our first basketball lesson with Mr Williams focusing on dribbling, triple threat positions and bounce passes. 


Wellbeing Wednesday

To celebrate Wellbeing Wednesday we had some competitive games of Blooket to practise our spellings and times tables. We followed this with a peaceful meditation. What a lovely start to the day :)


Topic Information Spring: What makes Earth angry?

This half term we will explore why natural disaster occur including earthquakes and volcanoes. We will create non chronological reports and adventure narratives about different natural disasters using AI to generate images to help inspire us. In maths we will continue to focus on multiplication and division. All children should know their 2, 5, 10, 3, 4 and 8 x table facts with related division facts so keep practising on mathletics and using our songs. I am looking forward to seeing the creative projects which are completed- see Seesaw for more details.
