Hello and welcome to Year 3! Here you will find updates of what is happening in our classroom and around the school.
Term 2 – Local Walk
This week, the year 3 geographers went on a local walk. We were looking at local landmarks and the different buildings in our area.
We are going to use our findings to create our own maps!
It was a lovely way to start the day and year 3 enjoyed saying ‘good morning’ to people they passed by.
Term 2: Odd Socks for Anti-bullying week!
Year 3 showed their support for anti-bullying week by wearing odd socks to school. We also made posters to encourage others to show kindness.
Term 1 – Diversity Week
Year 3 had an exciting visit from Anvi’s parents. They came into school to talk about growing up in India and Scotland. We found out about animals native to those countries, listened to stories, took part in a quiz about languages and asked lots of questions!
A huge thank you to Anvi’s parents! We all really enjoy it.
Term 1: Writing Instructions
Before beginning their instruction text writing, the year 3 authors had a go at following instructions to make playdough and jam sandwiches. They then discussed the features of the instructions. Unfortunately for Mrs Kirley, Miss Lewis stole her sandwiches just like the scavenging seagulls in The Lighthouse Keeper’s Lunch!
