One Childhood, One Chance

Weekly News! 27.6.25

Year 3 have had another wonderful week this week. Here's what we've been up to:

Maths
In Maths this week, we have been looking at Time. The children learnt how to convert between minutes and seconds and minutes and hours and made a reference card detailing how to. We then add how many days each month of the year had to reference card before solving some time conversion problems. Next week, we will be looking at statistics. 

English
This week, we have continued reading our Term 6 text, ' The Magical Journey of Edward Tulane'. We have started to write our own alternative chapter of the book. We started by completing a plan before moving on to write our build up focusing on both character and setting description. We then focused on writing direct speech for the next part of our story. Next week, we will be continuing our story focusing on writing action. 

Thematic
This week, we continued our Term 6 Thematic unit of 'Rainforests'. We looked at the different parts of a flower and dissected one to identify them. We then learnt about the process of photosynthesis. Next, we started our geography learning by learning about different biomes and creating a triorama about one. 

For home learning this week, please could children choose a biome that we studied in class (grassland, aquatic, forest, rainforest, tundra, desert) and research it further. As always, this research can be presented in a creative way of the child's choice.
