Well done Imogen for some excellent home learning about cat's eyes.

Science Challenge

We have been learning all about light and how it reflects off surfaces.
Your challenge is to find out how Cat's eyes work.
Draw and label a picture or write an explanation and bring it in to earn Inspire Points.

What a great first week!

It's Friday and we have already been making mistakes and learning from them this week. We have also swum and thought about sources of light as well as tried to chase our shadows when the sun shone. Today we had great fun playing place value digit games in threes then wrote up Our Sizzling Summer Holiday Moments for a display that will cheer up the corridor outside Year 3!

Next week we are going to be concentrating on our joined up handwriting and begin to learn how to be newspaper reporters. We are also going to be estimating and measuring. Don't forget it is Year 3 cake sale next Friday where we are raising money for a fantastic shadow puppet workshop.

Reading numbers using place value

Here we were challenged to make 2 and 3 digit numbers using words.

Can you remember what numbers you could not make and why? 

And so we begin ...

Our first day saw us talking about our holidays and all the great moments we had with our talk partners. Then we learnt about making notes - writing down the key facts to help us remember who, what, where and when and how our best moment happened.

Welcome to Year 3!

Welcome to a new school year! We have lots of exciting plans to look forward to and visiting our blog regularly will keep you up to date with what is going on.

See you Monday 8:45am ...

Mrs Cheeseman and Mrs Clark
