Year 3
Weekly Update - Friday 6th December 2024
Summary of this week:
|
We have almost made it to the end of the term! Year 3 have had a fun week learning the poem "T'was The Night Before Christmas" in their reading lessons. We discussed the rhythm and vocabulary and performed stanzas in front of our peers! In Geography, we also enjoyed learning about Ernest Shackleton and his expedition to Antarctica. We listened to voice recordings from his journey and had to plot his route on a map!

Our learning next week:
Maths: We will be revising all of our learning on multiplication and division so far.
English: We will be getting Christmassy; describing a scene from the Christmas John Lewis advert, writing letters to Santa and also creating our own Christmas acrostic poems.
