We have had another wonderful week in Year 3! Even though we are starting to get tired and are looking forward to the summer holidays, everybody is still working their socks off!
We have been doing some tricky dividing in Maths but have all done so well! We are getting near the end of Toro Toro now; it is very tense as the Spanish Civil War is happening in the part where we are up to.
We did some videos on Apple Clips on Friday. A group of us did our videos about being safe and kind to each other online – it is so important to behave in a nice, polite, and kind manner online, just as you would face to face.
We absolutely LOVED watching the Year 6 children in the marquee. They treated us to a viewing of their Year 6 performance – Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. We couldn’t stop smiling throughout.

Keeping our children safe in the online space is of ever growing importance. From phones to consoles, our children are exposed to more online risk than ever and it is important that we adults keep up to date to ensure our children are prepared for all they meet online. Here is an interesting article on Internet Security professionals teach their children about internet safety.
How do I keep my children safe online? What the security experts tell their kids
Below we have attached two guides on how to set up your child's phone for privacy. We teach the children not to share their information when online, however social platforms and games will take data from users unknowingly.

We have had an amazing half term in Year 3. Everybody has worked their socks off, been great friends and had lots of fun!

Everybody looked fantastic dressed as teachers, I see some future teachers among you.
Enjoy your week off in the sunshine woohoo!
Thank you for being absolutely amazing children and for making myself and Ms Hodson smile and laugh every day. We absolutely love coming into school and seeing all of you.

We have had a very fun week in Year 3. We made beautiful pieces of ocean art after learning about the ocean and about how different creatures adapt to living in the deep sea. We also looked at the different oceans and seas in an atlas in Geography. We then squeezed in another Geography lesson; we couldn’t miss out on the Eurovision Song Contest. We had a lot of fun and laughter listening to the songs by some of the contestants, we rocked some of the dance moves (especially Iceland’s dance) and then we found out about the different countries by looking at maps.
In French we continued to practise reading and writing numbers and days and fruit vocabulary, ready to read The Hungry Caterpillar in French next week.
In Maths we have been focussing on multiplying a 2-digit number by a 1-digit number, we are getting very good at this. Knowing our times tables well helps a lot!

In History, we looked at the different beliefs of the Ancient Egyptians. One of their beliefs was that after they died, they had an afterlife. This was why they spent so much time on mummification and building tombs. We learnt about the stages of mummification, we were disgusted by some of them

Using social media websites is among the most common activity of today's children and adolescents. Any website that allows social interaction is considered a social media site, including social networking sites such as Facebook, TikTok, Snapchat and Twitter; gaming sites and virtual worlds such as Club Penguin, Second Life, and the Sims; video sites such as YouTube; and blogs. Such sites offer today's youth a portal for entertainment and communication and have grown exponentially in recent years. For this reason, it is important that parents become aware of the nature of social media sites, given that not all of them are healthy environments for children and adolescents. - From the American Academy of Pediatrics
Below you will find two guides. One for Snapchat and one for Sadfishing.

French
Bonjour! Today we are going to learn how to say 'a' for singular nouns and 'some' for plural nouns. For example, in English, this would be: A rabbit = 1 rabbit. Some rabbits = more than one rabbit.
Then we’ll do 'the' for singular and plural nouns, using the same animal vocabulary as we learnt last week. Eg the horse= 1 horse. The horses = more than one. The words you’ll learn today are called articles and they change in French depending on whether the noun is masculine or feminine, singular or plural.

Download lesson 17 with audio.
Work through the Powerpoint, clicking on whether you think it is un or une or des; le or la or les. The lady will say Tant pis! Never mind! if you make a mistake.
Once you’ve worked through, write the date in French in your book – mardi deux mars and the learning objective Can I translate un, une, des, le ,la, les into English?
Using slide 20, copy the French and translate it into English. Once you’ve tried the first 5, check your answers before moving on to slide 21. Check your answers again and correct them if you’ve made a mistake. If you like, there are 5 more on slide 22!
I hope you understand. We will go back over this in school if you’re a bit unsure.
Here’s an animal song to finish.
