Year 3 Weekly Blog Friday 28th March

Worship

This week our class worship was led by Edward, Jude, Blythe, Bonny and Eliza , they retold beautifully the story of Daniel and lions. It was a story that really made us think and reflect on our actions. We listened to the children’s personal prayer and they have been our prayer leaders this week.

Our learning this week…

English - We’ve been Roman Researcher and have collected information about Hadrian’s Wall. We collected lots of fact and put together a multiple choice quiz on Purple Mash to challenge our friends knowledge. We’re nearly ready to start thinking about how were going to put together all the information we have collected together in our trifold leaflets.

Maths - We’ve continued learning about shapes, this week we focused on rectangles and squares. We identified their angles and did some amazing work to prove that when you cut a square on the diagonal you get 2 right angles triangles with 2 sided the same length, we moved our investigation on to look at rectangles and found that when they were cut on the diagonal we go 2 right angles triangles. I wonder if your children can tell you what they discovered when we make 2 diagonal cuts? We used our ipads to experiment with right angles around a point.

Spelling - Our spelling focus this week is the suffix ous. Please see our homework blog and homework books for tasks.

Swimming - Next week is our last swimming lesson, the children have made so much progress, we’re so proud of them.

Easter Assembly - This week the children have been given their lines for our Easter Assembly - The Last Supper, please encourage them to learn their lines and speak them loudly and clearly. Our Easter assembly will be on Tuesday 8th April.
