Check out year 3's collage responses to 'The Wild' .
Last week of term 5 and here we are !
Viking Games.
Whether the weather....
Today we looked at how some fruit and vegetable seeds are stored and how likely it is that they will be dispersed through gravity, water, eat and excrete, catching a lift or wind. The children debated and sorted the pictures into the zones they felt would give the fruit or vegetable the best chance of reproducing.
Alongside this, we also had a look at some real fruit and veg to compare the sizing and placement of seeds.
A lesson thoroughly enjoyed by all even if we did have sticky fingers and tables by the end !
This week, in English and Reading, we will be looking at a new book, 'The Wild'. Year 3 will be recreating this story as a comic strip complete with sound effect bubbles, thought bubbles and speech bubbles. This will continue on into next week as we delve deeper into the themes, bring to life our characters and flourish with illustrations.
We will also be bringing to an end our science experiment and drawing a conclusion about how the amount of water affects the growth of a plant... pictures to come later in the week !
Please see below this week's spellings
Please see below the love to learn for this term!
As we come to the end of week 4 of this term, the children have been working hard to complete their neat write-up of their adventure stories. We have been looking at what we can add to our narratives to bring the stories to life. This has included some beautiful fronted adverbials and subordinate conjunctions as well as a healthy dashing of adventurous adverbs and adjectives.
We will be adding the neat copies to our year 3 display in school to show off the incredible effort of our budding authors.
Hope you've all had a good bank holiday weekend !

We have had a lot of fun these past couple of weeks in computing in year 3 getting to grips with editing, adding to and animating PowerPoint presentations.
We have finished our unit on measurement in Maths and are now heading onto fractions. To help with this, please make use of these websites and games to boost your child's recall of multiplication facts. All areas of Maths are improved by having an understanding of multiplication, but we particularly notice this when it comes to fractions.
Have a lovely bank holiday weekend everyone !
