In Y3 we have been honing our basketball skills ready for the KS2 tournament in Sports’ Week.  The children are progressing really well as they know they may end up playing Y6!

In Y3 we are looking at how seeds grow by planting them in a clear pot with damp cotton wool. We are keeping a diary of the changes we see over the next two weeks.

Y3 enjoyed trying lots of different breads and fillings so that they can design their own healthy sandwich next week.  They will be bringing home a shopping list so they can make their sandwich on the 29th of November.

We will be celebrating Roald Dahl day on Wednesday and I would like to make dream jars with the children, based on the BFG book. Please could you send in a clean glass jar as soon as possible? A jam jar, Dolmio jar or coffee jar would be ideal.

Thanks

We are learning to create our own algorithms in Computing this term. We are using Scratch software which can be downloaded for free at scratch.mit.edu. There is also a free user guide on the website, along with online tutorials.

I hold a free Scratch Club every Tuesday lunchtime which all juniors are invited to attend. This is a drop in session and places don’t need to be booked. If you would like to visit our blogs or use Mathletics, you are welcome to do this also.
