Hello everyone,
Here's what’s been happening in Year 3/4 Willow this week. We’ve been busy with lots of engaging activities, and I can’t wait to tell you all about it! Reading and Inference This week, we’ve been focusing on inference skills, which means there might be more than one correct answer for some questions. It’s great to see the children thinking deeply about the text! Just a reminder to bring in homework books tomorrow, as we’ll start with a spelling test right at the beginning of the day. This will help you keep track of your child’s scores! Leaflet Writing In English, we’ve started writing our advice leaflets using key words, conjunctions, and commands. Inspired by our book "Here We Are," we’ve been discussing important topics like health, kindness, and taking care of our planet. The children had some fantastic ideas to share, and we even took a wriggle break to keep our energy up! Spelling and Handwriting We’ve also begun our spelling programme this week. Year 3 practised their handwriting, while Year 4 explored prefixes. After that, we swapped activities! Year 4 worked independently in their spelling journals, while Year 3 focused on learning their new spellings. It’s wonderful to see their progress and enthusiasm for language! PE Fun Just a quick note: we have an extra PE lesson tomorrow! Please ensure your child brings their PE kit. If you can’t manage it in time, don’t worry; school uniform will be perfectly fine for this lesson. Looking Ahead As we continue through September, I’m excited to see all the amazing things our students will achieve. We’re focusing not just on academics but also on building a supportive and kind classroom community. Let’s keep encouraging each other as we learn and grow together! Thank you for your continued support, and have a fantastic week ahead! Year 3/4 team Comments are closed.
