As we rapidly speed towards the end of term, as usual, it's been non-stop fun and learning in Year 3 this week.
Literacy
We have been watching the animation short 'Bert' and identifying the different mood and atmospheres depicted within the film. We used the feelings identified to write emotively. We used lots of specific adjectives, adverbs and verbs; whilst writing a narrative to the film. We also reviewed all the rules for speech marks and made sure we included them in our work; making sure we had a good balance of both direct and reported speech.
Numeracy
We have been looking at graphs and charts, in particular the different styles of pictograms that can be used to display different sets of data. We looked at a wide range of questions that could be answered using the charts.
We had excellent fun making our very own versions of the traditional Spanish omelette. Over the past few weeks we have been taste testing and designing our own recipes. We had a lot of fun preparing all of our ingredients but even more fun taste testing the results of our hard work. We all agreed that they were even tastier than the shop bought traditional varieties we tried at the beginning of the topic. What a success!
A couple of quick reminders for next week...
Monday is our viola concert starting at 10.00am in the school hall. We look forward to seeing all those that can make it. Also, Tuesday is our last 'Read to Succeed' day so make sure you all have your t-shirts on to celebrate our reading achievements. Finally, Wednesday is the children's last day of the summer term, please could you send your child in with a bag big enough to bring home school books and work that has been on display. Thank-you.
