Box of Goodness Ramadan initiative

A gentle reminder we are collecting non-perishable food items throughout Ramadan to support families in need. Items can be dropped off at the Learner Entrance. Thank you for your generosity.

English

This week in English, Year 3 learners were introduced to our new class text, The Rhythm of the Rain by Grahame Baker-Smith. Before reading, they made predictions about the story, explored key vocabulary and used drama to immerse themselves in the setting.

Next week, the children will begin analysing the features and structure of the example text in preparation for writing their own narrative setting.

Ask your child: What did they think the story would be about before reading it? Has their idea changed?

Spellings: Homophones

great
grate
grown
groan
plain
plane
peace
piece

Maths

This week in Maths, we have been learning about measuring and calculating perimeter. We explored how to find the total distance around different shapes by adding the lengths of their sides. We practised measuring sides accurately using a ruler and used this information to calculate the perimeter of both regular and irregular shapes.

Next week we will start learning about fractions, focusing on learners understanding of numerators and denominators.

Ask your child: How do you calculate perimeter?

Science

This week in Science, Year 3 continued exploring light and the effects sunlight has on our bodies. We discussed how the sun can be helpful, but also harmful if we are not careful. The children learnt about different ways to protect themselves when spending time outdoors.

Please ask your child: How can we protect ourselves from the sun?

They should be able to tell you about wearing a hat, using sunscreen, wearing sunglasses, seeking shade, and drinking plenty of water.

Enquiry Learning

This week we began our new Enquiry Learning unit: What can Dynasties Teach Us? The children explored creative activities including making lanterns, writing in Mandarin, creating collages, and making red envelopes.

Next week, they will continue these activities so everyone can fully immerse themselves in this exciting topic.

Ask your child: How do you say Happy New Year in Mandarin?

Home Learning Choice Boards

We are delighted to share our Home Learning Choice Board for this half term. This is an optional activity board for your child to complete. There are nine practical and engaging activities to choose from, please select up to three.

We then began our new topic for this half term which is all to do with asking how much things cost.
