Hola!
Don't we look fab! We have had a great Mexican Day and taken part in lots of exciting activities.
Maths Bronze Award Winners
Well done to our youngest and newest bronze award winners for their rapid recall of multiplication and division facts!
Capacity Challenge
We took advantage of the good weather to go outside for our maths lesson, using water to estimate capacity and then checking using measuring cylinders. We found out how accurate our estimates were by calculating the difference.
Fractions Fun
Today we made an Equivalent Fractions Museum in our classroom and we had fun working on our exhibits using the Maths skills we have learned this week.
Our Longest Bean

Ascension Day Reminders

We thought about traffic lights to try to remember the instructions Jesus gave to his disciples as He went back to Heaven:
(Red) Stop in Jerusalem
(Amber) Wait for the Holy Spirit
(Green) Go out into the whole…
This Week's Special Day
We are all busy making something to show what we have learned about this week's special day on Thursday. Do you know what it is all about?
It is Ascension Day on Thursday. Ask Year 3 what it's all about and what we were making...
Rounders Fun!
We have really enjoyed learning to play rounders with a PE teacher from Kearsley Academy coming in to teach us. Our catching and throwing skills are really improving now. We are also learning the rules of the game and we are getting much better at stopping at the right time to avoid running our…
