Class 3 Weekly Update

English: This week the children have created a new character for Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. They came up with a new child who had won a ticket and then wrote a story about their visit to the factory and what happened to them. We have also spent some time looking at the poems/songs the oompa loompa’s sing about the different children and then had a go at writing our own about our new character.

Maths: We have been focusing on multiplication this week. The Year 2 children have been revising multiplication as repeated addition and have been matching images to multiplication number sentences. The Year 3 children have been multiplying 2 digit numbers by 1 digit numbers. We have done this with images in a place value grid and have been learning the column method for doing this.

Science: We have been describing the properties of different rocks this week and have been identifying their uses.

History: The children have been learning about what life was like for a Roman Soldier and have written a diary entry as though they are a Soldier.

PE: We have begun practising for sports day this week!

RE: The children have concluded their work on ‘What do Christians believe about God?’ bringing together all their ideas from previous sessions.

After half term our PE days will change to a Thursday and Friday. 

Year 2 children will have games on a Thursday and tennis on a Friday.

Year 3 children will have swimming on a Thursday and tennis on a Friday. 

Thank you for your continued support this half term, I hope you all have a lovely break!

Dear Parents/Carers,

Unfortunately booster club has had to be cancelled tonight, children are able to attend fitness club instead if they are unable to be collected.

World Book Day

Dear Parents/Carers,

I have asked the children to bring in one of their favourite books from home on Thursday for World Book Day so that we can spend some time talking about them as a class.

Thank you,

Class 3 Homework – Due in Friday 2nd March

Year 2: Please can the Year 2 children complete pages 2-3 and page 30 of their Grammar work book and pages 35 – 37 of their Maths Reasoning work book.

Year 3: Lots of the children enjoyed last weeks homework so I’ve decided to set a similar writing task again where the children need to finish the story. Please see attached.

Christmas Concert Dress Rehersal

Dear Parents/Carers,

The children will be having a dress rehearsal for their Christmas Concert on Monday so please can you ensure all children have their costumes in school. Just a reminder that unless you were told otherwise before Christmas, your child needs to bring in a dark pair of bottoms, a white top and a Christmas jumper or party wear.

Thank you for your support,
