Year 3 Weekly Update

 

Weekly Review - Week Beginning - 22.04.2024

Dear parents and guardians,

Welcome back to the Summer term and we hope you all had an exciting Easter. We can't believe it's already the end of week 3. Please see our weekly update for this week. 

Maths:

In Maths, we are continuing with our unit - all about fractions! We have been working on adding and subtracting fractions with the same denominator. For example, we know that 5/5 + 2/5 = 7/5. We had lots of fun creating more equations based on one equation, like 7/5 - 5/5 = 2/5.

English:

This week, we continued our unit centred on our text ‘The Street Beneath My Feet’. We have finished our 'sentence stacking’ phase and we have been working on our ‘independent’ phase. We have been extremely creative with our non-fiction text and have been identifying and researching lots of facts that have made our piece of text more interesting. 

The Street Beneath My Feet (Look Closer)

Science:

This week, we have continued our Science topic which is ‘Changing Our World.’ Last week we looked at how seeds from trees are dispersed and what the different types of seeds are. This week, we had a closer look at the life cycle of flowers, the different parts of a flower and also which types of flowers you would find in each season.
