This week, the children have begun a new set of units across their curricular learning&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>In English, as part of our topic learning, the children have been looking at Roman diaries. In particular, we have been studying the diary of a Greek slave who was captured and sold in Rome. The children have found her story fascinating and have enjoyed taking part in role-play and drama to re-enact parts of the diary through freeze frames. Next week, both classes shall write their own narratives before enhancing their descriptions through fronted adverbials of time, place, manner and degree.<\/p>\n<p>In Maths, Year Three have been exploring fractions. At the beginning of the week, the pupils took part in a range of practical activities that involved different representations of unit and non-unit fractions. The children then worked on shape problems before looking at fractions of amounts of objects e.g. 1\/2 of 8 flowers. It has been excellent to see the children using concrete resources and pictorial representations when learning about fractions as equal parts of a whole. Well done Year Three!<\/p>\n<p>Thank you to both classes for the commitment they have shown for Home Learning &#8211; we look forward to seeing more work on the Romans next Friday.<\/p>\n<p>We hope you all have a peaceful weekend,<\/p>\n<p>Miss Honeywell, Mrs Luter and Mrs Sumba.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello, We hope that you all had a wonderful half term holidays and that you have returned for the second Spring term feeling refreshed.
