This week, we have been working really hard to use lots of  interesting description in our writing. We went outside and used our senses to describe what we could see, hear, smell and feel. This helped us to work together to write a short setting description about Stig’s dump. We hope to write our own by the end of the week!

Class 3 became ‘gathers’ and collected natural resources such as sticks and leaves. We talked about how the people used these resources in the Stone Age and decided we were going to use them to create cave paintings! Everyone thought really hard about the meaning or story behind their cave painting.

In Class 3, we have reading about the Stone Age Boy by Satoshi Kitamura. We worked well as a team to create actions to the story to help us retell it!

We were very excited to take part in judo! Miss Brack was so impressed at how well we worked together.

Class 3 have had a great first week back at school. We can’t wait to learn more about the Stone Age!

Class 3 have enjoyed exploring 2-D and 3-D shapes. We used what know about angles and lines to describe them to our partners. We enjoyed working together to create 3-D shapes.   

We were so excited to find out that our penpals from Benedict Biscop Academy had replied to our letters! We enjoyed reading them.

In maths, we have been learning about time. Class 3 completed a number of challenges and timed themselves. They then measured their time in seconds to work out who was the quickest.  Class 3 were very determined to beat their personal best! 

We were very excited to find out that we are going to be writing to our pen pals next week. First, we need to identify the  features of informal letters. We looked at many different examples!
