Hello,

We hope you have all had a good week so far.

In English, we have been learning how to add detail to our information pages through the use of subordinating conjunctions and fronted adverbials. We then looked at an example of a Unicorn information page and worked  in groups to perform each paragraph to our peers and discuss the meaning of key vocabulary that had been used. It was great to see the children using actions and changing their tone of voice so as to show their understanding of the text. Well done Year Three!

In Maths, we have continued to learn how to use bar models to calculate fractions of an amount. The children were then given an opportunity to solve ‘Would you rather?’ comparison questions. Towards the end of the week, we started to look at how to add and subtract fractions with the same denominator – both classes enjoyed competing a series of visual, number line and pyramid challenges.

We hope you all have a great weekend.

Enjoy the Royal Wedding!

Miss Honeywell, Mrs Luter and Mrs Stewart.
