Year 3 Friday 15th December 2023

Date: 15th Dec 2023 @ 8:17am

Welcome to your Friday blog

What a busy week we've had in Year 3! Santa Dash, stop motion animation, a visit from the Dogs Trust and an amazing workshop with the Rock Steady music company.

Home Practice

Keep reading every night with an adult or on your own. Talk about what you have read and explore new books, magazines and newspapers.

We have set two Sumdog challenges, one is practising division and the other is based on your times table target. We have seen a big improvement in fluency with times tables this week. Keep up the good work!

Your Spellings this week will have the dis prefix 

dislike     disuse     disown     disarm     dismay     disconnect     discover     disagree      disappoint     disappear     disengage     displease     disinfect     disable

Reminders

On Wednesday, we are having our Christmas Jumper day and our Grand Christmas post!

This week we have enjoying our Postbox mystery and used the story to write some brilliant newspaper reports. DIAMONDS STOLEN BY ALIENS!

In maths we have learnt how to use grouping to solve division problems. We noticed that our answer was always how many groups there were.

We also developed our own stop frame animations using toys from Reception. Have a look in our gallery.

In history we learnt how people in the Neolithic period started to farm and rear animals. We also learnt why they built stone circles - to track the seasons to help them grow their crops.

Have a lovely weekend

The Year 3 team!
