This week in Maths we learnt all about our 4 times tables.  We worked some tricky jumping sums and created lovely 4 times tables flowers.  We also were amazing at telling the time to 5 minute intervals.

In Literacy, we held a democratic vote to decide on our new book.  The choices were The Last Viking (by Terry Deary) or I was there...(by Stuart Hill).  The vote was unanimously in favour of The Last Viking.  I wonder which one you would chose?  We wondered if we might even have time for both of them this half term.

I Was There…: Viking Invasion - Scholastic ShopThe Last Viking by Terry Deary - Barrington Stoke - Dyslexia-Friendly

We also wrote some Anglo-Saxon Kennings too.  These are really fun poems to try.  We wrote ours about ourselves.  Here are a few examples of our double word phrases.  Can you guess who there are about?

We had so much fun!  Maybe you could try these at home!

The highlight of our week came on Thursday!  We got to go come into school early and get the coach from the War Memorial.  The coach took us to Huddersfield Town Hall.  Miss Watkins, Mrs Oddie, Miss Monday and Emma came with us too.  There were lots of other school from around Kirklees.  We had a wonderful morning practicing our song and our sign language.  Paul was amazing and helped us with the signing.  He was so much fun and we loved him.

A lot of children returned for the evening performance.  We got to sit on the stage and perform to all of our grown ups in the audience.  What a wonderful evening.  We sang 5 songs - 1, 2, 3 Its good to be me, Believe, Three Little Birds, Love Shine a light and then Knees, Tum, Bum.  This made us giggle!

Miss Watkins was very proud of everyone!  And probably you were too (if you were there).

Well done Class 3!
