COOL DAY - Tuesday 17th March
Cool Day is almost here! On Tuesday 17th March come dressed in your favourite 'cool clothes' and we will design and create using all the things we've learnt about heat this Term.
Cool clothes: clothing that will keep you cool on a hot day (or warm on a cool day if the weather isn't great on Tuesday). Come prepared to talk about your clothes and why you think they're effective (the colour? the material?)
Year 3 Item - Term 1 Week 6
Here is the dance to practice for our item in Week 6.
Times Tables Playlist - Spotify
We've made a Times Tables playlist using Spotify for anyone who is interested in using music to help their child learn all the times tables facts. The songs would be great to play in the car or at home to help remember the different tables. We hope you find some tunes your child likes and that they are helpful!
To access the playlist:
- Open the following link: https://spoti.fi/2BA2xe2
- You can either download the Spotify app on your device OR access it through your internet browser
- You will need to have a Spotify account (the free version will be sufficient) to use the playlist
If you already have a Spotify account you can use the app to scan this image and access the playlist:

Year 3 Assembly Item
Hello Year 3 Music!
Here is a video for Bag-o-saurus. We will be performing this for the week 4 Primary Assembly (Can't Wait!!!).
You can also slow the video down by pressing the settings button on the bottom right of the video (0.75 is a good speed to start with, then speed up to normal speed).
Happy Practicing!!!
Mrs Shenouda :-)
P.S. The play along starts at 2:45
Bag-o-saurus play along!
Hi Again,
Here is an extra video to help you work out the finger work for Bag-o-saurus. Don't forget, you can slow this down in settings, if you need to help you get started.
Have fun!
Mrs Shenouda

Lit Literacy Party
Year 3 had a wonderful time at the Lit Literacy Party! We worked hard for four weeks noticing and writing super sentences. We then took four sentences along to the party and used them to participate in the party activities. We turned them into street art, rap battles and comic strips. We also participated in an awesome grammar escape room which we LOVED!
It was a fantastic way to mark the end of a great Term of learning!
Year 3 have been using this awesome instructional video to create amazing superhero drawings. We used Chatterpix to bring them to life!

We are looking for two students from each class in Year 3 to show off some of their hidden talents on stage at the Year 3 assembly item coming up shortly (Week 10 Friday at 9am).

Pretty impressive! 3B have been working on ordering numbers and managed to place some big numbers in descending order. We can't wait to see what Week 6 brings our way!
