Our learning this week -  Summer Term

English

We read the book Leaf by Sandra Dieckmann and then children have been spending time immersing themselves with the themes e.g. isolation, endangered animals. We also got to hold a debate about whether the woodland animals should support the polar bear. Children considered their arguments and were challenged to use modal verbs.

Maths

We have completed our end-of-term assessments on Arithmetic and Reasoning. We are also continuing with our shapes work and have been reviewing 2D shapes. 

Guided Reading

The children have also completed their Summer Reading assessments - the last one of the year! They've worked really hard and in hot weather too! So well done Year 3. 

Computing and Science

On Friday, we used Micro-bits as dataloggers. They got to create code on the laptops and then download it onto the Micro-bits. When ready, they then took them to 3 different locations and recorded the temperature. 

As well as the above, we have been learning French, RE, PSHE and Guided Reading, tying in with our theme 'Under the Canopy' where possible. 

Our PE days are Tue and Thu. 

Our value this term is truthfulness.
