Another super week year 3! Well done :) 

Wow, what a great half term the children have had in year 3! They have amazed us with all their hard work and efforts. It was wonderful meeting you all at parents evening to discuss how your child has settled and the progress they have made. Working together is vitally important, please contact us should you have any questions or concerns.

The children have written some super descriptions of the ‘Tin Forest’ this week, learning how to write in paragraphs and to reflect on their own and others work to improve it.

In Maths, we been recapping on our number bonds knowledge to help us work out 'subtracting 1s across 10s', ensuring we have a secure knowledge of place value within subtraction. We have been solving problems and proving how we know the answer using number facts.  We will continue to practise our reasoning skills, by proving how we know the answer

Another super week in year 3, the children have all worked really hard. During our school and class worships we have been talking about the changes around the seasons, Autumn. We have been discussing those changes relevant to the beautiful New Forest, including pannage and rutting season. The children have loved sharing their favourite things about this season including pumpkin picking, conker collecting and looking after hedgehogs in their garden.

There are several parts to our homework, and this is set on Thursday and should be completed by the following the Wednesday. We have practised logging in to these sites in class this week, details are located in the back of your child's reading diary. 

 Homework includes; 

• Reading
• Ed Shed (spelling, maths and phonics)
• TT Rockstars

What a fantastic second week in Year 3, all the children continue to show great independence, resilience and perseverance in their learning.
