Friday 10th May

Hey everyone!

Let's revisit the epic learning journey that was our week in Year 3. Spoiler alert: it was filled with suspense, creativity, and a whole lot of fun!

Our week kicked off with a deep dive into the world of suspense with "Mr. Penguin and the Lost Treasure" by Alex Smith. We analysed how the author expertly crafted suspenseful moments, keeping us on the edge of our seats with every turn of the page. It was like being detectives, unravelling the secrets of storytelling!

In English class, we put our imaginations to the test by crafting our own version of the beloved story "Flotsam" called "Jetsam." Armed with pens and paper, we let our creativity run wild as we spun tales of underwater adventures and mysterious discoveries. We even started illustrating our books this afternoon—talk about bringing our stories to life!

Numbers were our jam in Maths this week as we delved into the world of fractions. But we didn't stop there! We put our reasoning caps on and tackled fractions of objects like true mathematicians.
In wider curriculum we explored the intricate parts of flowers, learning about pistils, stamens, and petals. In PSHE, we discovered how the body's organs work together like a well-oiled machine, keeping us healthy and happy. And to top it all off, we even learned to play a new chord on the ukulele!

We also have had a change to the PE days so make sure to be in PE kit on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. 
​
Have a brilliant weekend in the sun!!
