This week in Year 3

This week in Year 3 has been filled with excitement, creativity, and lots of wonderful learning!

Maths

We have begun exploring statistics and data, focusing on how to represent information using pictograms. The children learned how different keys can change the value of each symbol and practised interpreting and creating their own pictograms with increasing accuracy.

Writing

In writing, our focus has been on using fronted adverbials to add detail and interest to our sentences. We have also been working on using apostrophes for contractions correctly. These skills will be put to great use in next week’s writing tasks.

Geography

Our Geography learning took us on a journey to Italy, where we explored both its physical and human features. The children showcased their understanding by creating colourful, informative, and beautifully presented posters.

Festivities

We have also been getting into the festive spirit! Year 3 have been counting down to our Christingle and Winter Wonderland events by practising our seasonal songs. The classroom is starting to look magical as the children have been designing and crafting some spectacular decorations.

Home Learning

• We ask that children complete their weekly MyMaths task online.

• TT Rockstars should be practised for around 10 minutes a day to help build fluency in times tables.

• Read  x5 a week and log in your child's reading record.
