    This week, all the year 3 children have been busy writing their own fantasy adventures. We have used Podkin One Ear as our inspiration but have created our own characters, settings and plots. The children are currently writing up their fabulous stories and illustrating them so that we can create class books. They have loved this activity so please ask them about their own creations; they may well want to write a sequel at home. In other areas of the curriculum, they have learnt river vocabulary,  carried our scientific observations, learnt more about safe use of the Internet, measured mass and capacity, had conversations in French and danced to Dancing Queen. Phew!!

    This week all the year 3 children have earned their safe walking certificates. They have practised:

    - walking safely on the pavement, keeping away from the road

    - choosing a safe place to cross the road, in a straight line, onto a clear pavement

    - making sure they can see clearly and be seen by all road users

    - crossing with care, at a safe time

    -and using pedestrian crossing points to cross busy roads

    Children learn by example. They need to continue to practise safe walking with their responsible adult to prepare them for walking independently when they are older. For further guidance, please see The Highway Code Rules for Pedestrians (1-35).
