Our attendance for last week was 96%. This needs to improve!!  We had 3 late marks. 

In English, we started our new text, Arthur and the Golden Rope. So far we have been absolutely dripped by his adventures and the recent town attack! Next week we will be writing a newsreport all about the towns destruction.

In Maths, we started our new unit on multiplication and division. So far, we have recapped on the 3 and 4 times table. We have looked at making groups of 3 and 4 before dividing by this amount. We have also been developing our rapid recall in this area and Times Table Rockstars will help the children in this area. 

In French, we recapped on classroom instructions and then learnt how to ask for our friends name and give a reply in French! Check out the videos of us practising on our Twitter account @MRPAyear3b

In Computing we have begun our next unit on Algorithms. We had to follow an algorithm to produce an image. Check out our finished products:

In R.E, we started our new unit on Hinduism. We wrote our own fact file after watching an informative video.

In Music, we have been using the drums with Mr White and are developing our understanding of rhythm and pitch. 

In Reading, our text this week revolved around the Dodo bird, we have been developing our dictionary and thesaurus skills through lots of clarifying sessions. We have also been using our skimming and scanning skills to locate answers to a range of comprehension questions.

Key information:

Swimming is EVERY MONDAY. PLEASE ensure that your child's clothing is labelled and they are given a bag to carry this in. We have had lots of items go missing and this would help us greatly.

P.E is EVERY WEDNESDAY. Again please ensure a full kit is provided each week. This can remain in school and children can take it home at the end of term. 

Home Learning is given out on Wednesdays/Thursdays. Children are expected to complete this by the following Monday. If this is not completed then they will be expected to attend home work club.  

Reading books are changed as much as possible throughout the week. The more we read the better writers we will become so we encourage as much as possible but expect at least a book to be changed once a week.
