Team DERWENT & dOVE & Foss (YEAR 3 & Year 4)

Good afternoon, 

Coming up next week:

• Due to the Year 3 Murton Park trip on Wednesday, please can children come in PE kits on Tuesday and Friday next week. 

English: We will be writing a independent diary extract from the perspective of a character who has escaped from Pompeii on the day of the famous volcanic eruption! 

Maths: We will continue with our fractions work by placing fractions on a number line between 0 - 1 and look at using repeated addition of unit fractions to create non-unit fractions, as well as comparing non unit fractions with fractions equivalent to 1 (eg 2/5 < 5/5 )

PE Year 3 & 4: Children need to come dressed in PE kit on Wednesday & Friday. Children need to wear a pair of plain black or navy blue jogging bottoms or shorts, a plain white t-shirt and a plain black or navy blue hoodie. Children need to wear suitable shoes for PE (trainers or plimsolls).  

PSHE Year 3:  We will be looking knowing what it means to be a witness to bullying and to know what our school shared definition of bullying is. 

PSHE Year 4: We will be looking knowing why witnesses sometimes join in with bullying and sometimes don’t tell.
