  • 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.
