We have had a fun filled week of learning in Year 3 this week. On Monday we were visitied by the brilliant poet. Ian Bland. He taught us how to write Kennings and read us some of his hilarious poems.

In English we have really enjoyed our new story. We have met some new witches and learned a lot more about the mysterious S.M.I. We focused on descriptive writing this week and are using some great openers to our sentences.

In Maths this week we have been learning about decimals and how they are related to fractions. We have been partitioning mixed numbers and comparing our decimals.

In Art this week we have glazed our canonic jars ready for going home. They look great! Next week is Art week and our class will be using natural materials to make images.

This week we did our yoga session outside with Kate. We learned some positive affirmations and balance poses. Have a look at our gallery.

We also had a fabulous Sports Day on Tuesday. Everyone outperformed their personal bests and showed great attitudes and teamwork. Aidan came out victorious but every house was amazing.

 

In French, we practised giving our opinion of different ice cream flavours and asked others their opinion. We played a game to reinforce the vocabulary. Then we talked about the Tour de France which starts this Saturday, and designed a new jersey. The children looked up some new vocabulary in bilingual dictionaries - a  great skill when learning a language. 
 
 
In science, we tested different materials to see if they reflected light well or not. We talked about when we should wear reflective clothing to be seen and be safe.

Continue to read every night. We have been talking this week about how reading can help with so many areas of learning, including spelling and sentence writing.
