In maths we played a game called loop cards we all tried our hardest to be quickest back to the start.
We all have a card with a number on and a sum.
When it was our turn we read our sum.



Today we wrote endings to our traditional stories.
We all had a planner to write our stories in.
We had a beginning,middle and ending.


In PE we did some sport and we played tennis. We had a lot of fun.
Next week we are doing different ball games outside.

On Thursday we celebrated World Book Day. Take a look at the presentation below to see how we dressed up.

In ICT this week we were learning about databases. We had clues to find the Dumbo kidnapper.
Each person had a clown,height and a symbol showing whether they are a boy or girl.
At the end Coco The Clown was the kidnapper.
You can see the criminal below:



                               SCIENCE:
In science this week we worked out how much water we use in a week.
We all used thousands of litres a week. Some were high some were low.


 

We have been focusing on using different ICT equipment each day of the week.

 

On Monday in maths we were learning about directions and compass points. We played a game outside called North, South, East and West. The children practiced finding the different locations. Inside the classroom the children then used Roamer to program the machine to move in different directions. We estimated the different distances and used degrees to turn Roamer. It was great fun!

 

 

Later in the week we thought about what we use computers for. We gathered some ideas and then we created acrostic poems all about computers. We typed them up, saved and printed our poems. Please come and read them if you have time- they are on the ICT in our Year 3 classroom.

 
          

 
During our music this half term we have been listening to rap songs. This week we listened to Mr Noah rap song and identified the rhythm and pattern to the rap song.  We then worked in groups to create another verse to extend the rap. Listen to how cool we sound!

 

 

We hope that you all had a lovely half term holiday.

On Monday and Tuesday we have been doing Maths SATS and some of us did very well. We all had individual desks and nobody was allowed to talk.
On Wednesday we did our literacy SATS. We wrote about a statue that came to life!
On Thursday morning year 3 answered questions from a tape.The questions were on the topic of times and divide.
On Friday in Maths we had to crack a code by answering sums, but we couldn't unlock the code because we got a couple of the sums wrong! Later in literacy we wrote sentences, entirely in joined up writing. The sentences were all about the Egyptians.
