Children In Need

Year 3 had fun dressing up in their pyjamas for the day and enjoyed doing lots of activities related to Children In Need.

Stonehenge

In class the children watched a video about Stonehenge and had to write down information they thought was important about Stonehenge. They then used the computer to access 'purple mash' and created pictures of Stonehenge. They then had to type one fact they had learnt about Stonehenge.

Maths in class

In our maths lessons we are learning about addition and subtraction. We are using different concrete objects to help us to understand the various concepts.

Reading and following instructions

Last half term the children in year 3 were learning about instructional text. As part of their learning the children had to read and follow a set of instructions and create their own woolly mammoth.
