Summer 2 Week 7

We have had a lovely last week in Class 3. On Thursday afternoon, we made milkshakes as part of our DT lesson. We had the choice of banana, strawberry or chocolate. We then enjoyed them in the peace garden.

I cannot believe that it is the end of the school year – the year has flown by! Thank you parents for all of your support over the past year, from reading with your children, to supporting them with their homework. I hope you all have a lovely and restful summer holidays.

Summer 2 Week 6 – Maths

Stars of the Week: Younis and Yoki

This week in Class 3, we have finished the topic of telling the time in maths. It has been so great to see everyone’s confidence in the time improve and to hear at random points of the day pupil’s telling each other what the time is, in both digital and analogue. Please encourage your children to continue telling the time over the summer holidays.

I cannot believe that we only have one week left of Class 3 and that we only have one more blog of the school year!

Summer 2 Week 5 – Sports Day!

Stars of the Week: Malique and Phoebe

This week has been Sports Week and we have had the best time! On Monday and Thursday we have played rounders against each other and against Class 4. On Thursday afternoon we had Sports Day. All pupils took part and all pupils had a smile on their face throughout. It was so lovely to see everyone trying their best and enjoying themselves. Photos incoming…

Summer 2 Week 4 – Maths

Stars of the Week: Gerard and Heidi

This week in class 3, we have been working on telling the time. We have developed our confidence greatly with this skill. We all know that the long hand is the minute hand while the short hand is the hour hand. We know how many seconds are in a minute, how many minutes are in an hour and how many hours are in a day. We also know how many days are in each month.

Summer 2 Week 3 – Farm trip

Stars of the Week: Ruby and Noah

On Wednesday we went to Tuesley Farm and we had the best day! We ate a picnic lunch over looking the fruit farm and were given delicious treats of cupcakes, cookies and flapjacks. We spent two hours fruit picking blueberries, raspberries and strawberries. We ate lots of fruit whilst we picked them! We had lots and lots of fruit to take home and to make into a fruit crumble at school.

Summer 2 Week 2 – Drama

Stars of the Week: Justin and Arabella

This week in english we have studied Hansel and Gretel by the Royal Opera House. We have done lots of singing and dancing, including vocal warm ups and acting out parts of the story to music. We have really enjoyed the lessons this week and getting out of our comfort zone.

Next Wednesday we are going on a school trip to the farm which we are really excited about!

Summer 2 Week 1 – Science

Stars of the Week: Miriam and Rory

This week in class 3, we conducted a science experiment on how plants transport water. This process is called transpiration. We mixed food colouring with water and placed celery in the water. The aim of the experiment was to see the water going up the celery and the celery would change colour due to the food dye. Unfortunately, the experiment did not show us as obvious results as we hoped! However, we had lots of fun conducting it.

Summer 1 Week 6 – Art

Stars of the Week: Albert and Arabella

This week in Class 3 we have worked really hard on our assessments. In between our assessments we have enjoyed our art lesson on surrealism. We recreated Dali’s ‘The Elephants.’ We used oil pastels to create the elephant and watercolour paints for the background.

Have a lovely half term!

Summer 1 Week 5 – Collective Worship

Stars of the Week: all of Class 3!

Well done to Class 3 for their fabulous collective worship assembly on Wednesday. All of the class worked really hard to memorise their lines and the lyrics to the song. Thank you also to the parents and carers for coming along to support, and for helping them learn the song at home.

Next week at school is assessment week, please spend some time over the weekend on Times Tables Rockstars.

 

Summer 1 Week 3 – Art

Stars of the Week: Jacob A and Ava

Our topic in art this half term is surrealism. We have discussed what surrealism means and we have analysed pieces of artwork which express surrealism. We have created a piece of surrealist artwork based on Rene Magritte’s dove painting. This week, we have started to plan another piece of artwork using the same techniques.

Please see post below of the class collective worship song.

I hope you all have a lovely bank holiday weekend, celebrating the King’s coronation.
