Hi Everyone,
It has been another busy and enjoyable week in Year 3/4!
In English, the children published and performed their kennings, showing great confidence and creativity.
During Maths, we solved maths mystery problems, developing our reasoning skills.
In Guided Reading, we read Winter Wonderland and explored rhyme and rhythm.
We continued identifying and sorting rocks into categories in our science lesson and this will continue in January.
Thank you to everyone who attended the Christmas performance on Tuesday—the children did an amazing job, and we are very proud of them.
We would like to wish you all a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year. We look forward to seeing the children in the new term.
Kind regards,
Mrs Ward and Miss Maher

Hi Everyone,
It has been another busy and productive week in Year 3/4!
In English, the children have been working hard on their kennings. They published their work yesterday, and these are now proudly displayed in our book corner.
In Maths, we have begun our new unit on multiplication and division, with a focus on the 4 times tables today.
We have also finished reading Thorfinn the Nicest Viking.
Thank you again for the boxes you sent in for Art—they were greatly appreciated, and the children will be bringing them home this week, all beautifully decorated.
Wishing you all a lovely weekend, and we look forward to seeing you on Tuesday for the Christmas performance.

Hi Everyone,
It has been another busy and productive week in Year 3/4!
In English, the children have started learning about kennings. We explored the rules for creating a kenning, and the children really enjoyed experimenting with their own ideas.
In Maths, we have been learning about multiplication (2, 5 and 10) and simple division. The children have shown great enthusiasm and are growing in confidence with these skills.
In Guided Reading, we have now finished Thorfinn the Nicest Viking and completed some comprehension activities based on the story.
In Art, the children have completed their boxes, decorating them using their five senses. Next week, we will evaluate them and reflect on the creative process.
Wishing you all a lovely weekend,
Mrs Ward and Miss Maher

Hi Everyone,
It has been another busy and productive week in Year 3/4!
In English, the children have been working hard to publish their non-chronological reports on the Vikings. They have taken great pride in presenting their final pieces neatly and clearly, showcasing everything they have learned.
In Maths, we have now moved on to our new unit on multiplication and division. The children have made a great start and are already showing confidence with the new concepts.
Thank you once again to all the parents/carers who have sent in shoe boxes for our upcoming project. These continue to be greatly appreciated and we have started painting the boxes. They will be decorated next week.
Hope to see you at the Christmas fayre!
