Year 3 Looking Back and Forth 8/11/24
Friday 8th November 2024 – Looking Back & Forth in Year 3
Looking back:
It’s been lovely, welcoming the children back after their Half Term break this week and they have been really busy, as always. Our daily reading and Accelerated Reader sessions have continued to help us improve our reading and understanding too. We made a fantastic start in PE by beginning our Tag Rugby sessions for this term, in English, we stepped inside a brand-new book, all about Jemmy Button, we have continued with our addition and subtraction work in maths this week too as well as comparing South Africa and Goostrey using digital technology in Geography. We began our project work on computer programming by coding Micro’bits and our improving our singing work in music. We loved learning greetings in French and Science was comparing human and animal bones.
Well done Class 3 for being won-der-ful!!!
