This week in Year 3

We have had a busy and exciting week in Year 3!

The Year 3 teachers would like to start off by saying a huge well done to all of the Year 3 classes for completing their marathon in support of Sophie’s Legacy. We were incredibly proud of the determination, effort and impressive teamwork shown by all the children. Thank you to everyone involved for making this such a positive and memorable experience.

In Writing, we have been exploring verbs and learning how they change depending on who they are referring to and when the action is taking place. The children have been practising using verbs accurately in different tenses and are becoming more confident in applying this knowledge in their writing.

In Science, we are continuing our learning about rocks. This week, we focused on identifying and understanding the differences between sedimentary, metamorphic and igneous rocks. The children enjoyed investigating how these rocks are formed and comparing their characteristics.

In PDL, the children took part in a lesson on PANTS, an acronym that helps them remember important rules about personal space and staying safe. The discussion was handled maturely and thoughtfully by all classes.

Well done, Year 3, for another fantastic week of learning!.
