  • Number fluency, Gymnastics Routines and Reciprocal Reading

    Published 05/11/21

    This week the children in Year 3 have been adding and subtracting 3-digit numbers from 3-digit numbers, estimating to the nearest tens or hundreds number and consolidating their learning through fluency card games and 'Flashback 4' activities. 

    In gymnastics this week, the children thoroughly enjoyed putting previous learning from Autumn 1 into partner and group routines. They chose a selection of gymnastics shapes such as: the star shape, straight shape or tuck shape and linked the chosen shapes together using a range of travelling steps.

    Having learnt and practised the individual reading roles as a class last term, the children moved on to working in individual groups with each child responsible for carrying out one of the following roles:

    -Boss

    -Predictor

  • Turns, Reciprocal Reading and Podkin Drama!

    Published 09/07/21

    This week in maths we have been learning about angles, turns and direction in our geometry topic. The children enjoyed writing turn problems for their talk partners to solve and using right-angle finders to identify all of the right angles in the classroom!

    We practised our reading and comprehension skills through reciprocal reading. It is great to see the children becoming so confident with their reading roles!
