    Year 3 had a wonderful time at Butser Ancient Farm this week. They spent time exploring the Iron Age village and took part in some exciting activities to bring their learning to life including; spinning wool, creating a clay pot, chalk carving and creating their own jewellery. The staff at Butser Farm were so impressed with the children’s behaviour and knowledge on the Stone Age, Bronze Age and Iron Age. 

    The children have created fantastic diary entries of their day, demonstrating their knowledge about the Iron Age.

    It has been lovely to see all the children back this week. It has been a busy but fun week, starting our new units of work.

    In English this week we started reading ‘Charlotte’s Web’, practising our fluency, inference skills and marking the text. The children have loved using expression for the different characters and loved discussing the personalities of different characters.

    Homework; listen to or read chapter 4 in readiness for next Monday. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgsD-xdJdoM

    In Maths, we have focused on telling the time. Many children have found this challenging therefore to support their learning I have set additional homework on EdShed. The best way to learn time, is physically telling the time on a daily basis. The children need to know how to tell and solve problems using an analogue and digital clock.  

    In jigsaw we have started our ‘Relationship’ unit, we have been talking about males, females and stereotypes. We have been looking at different roles within the home and different occupations.
