Year 3 - Spring 2 - Week 3
Date: 9th Mar 2024 @ 11:33am
This week has been full of determination. We could not be any prouder of all our Year 3 children as they have shown true resilience and perseverance whilst completing Maths, Reading and Writing assessments. Amazing work Year 3!
To kick start National Careers Week at school. We took part in a quiz to guess what jobs the staff at TSP had before they joined our school. We loved discovering all the different and exciting career routes our staff had before joining our TSP family.
In Maths, we created a shop to help us understand how change is given. It wasn’t as simple as we first thought but we soon got to grips with it Well done Year 3! Next week, we will begin statistics.
We continued learning about the River Nile during our Geography lesson this week. We worked hard to find the positive and negative effects of the Aswan High Dam on the River Nile. Each table worked together to gather as much evidence as they could about the dam, focusing on what was good and what was bad. Once the evidence was gathered the children role played a conscious alley to support their side of the argument.
A definite highlight of the week was World Book Day, where all children and staff put an astounding effort into their costumes. It was wonderful to see how so many characters from our favourite books were brought to life. The classroom filled with laughter as we took on the challenge of discovering who the Masked Reader was. We looked for clues and listened carefully to the words as each masked reader read from a different book. Using the ‘Book Creator’ app, we created our books about our hobbies or things we our interested in. We had so much fun sharing them once completed.
In recognition of International Women’s Day, we delved into researching three inspiring women from the past and present. We then created a poster to show the identified key characteristics that all three women had in common these included bravery, ambition, empowerment and determination.
We continue to work hard practising for our upcoming Easter service. We are so excited to show you all very soon.
Have a restful weekend and we look forward to seeing all your smiling faces on Monday.
