Good afternoon everyone!

We've had another great week in Year 3; I can't believe it's already nearly half term! It has gone so fast! The children are all continuing to work exceptionally hard; I'm so proud of them all. Thank you all so very much for all the hard work you are doing at home with your children; it really makes such a super difference.

Our spellings for this week are listed below; I will also add them once again to Spelling Shed. We are currently having a whole school competition to see who accesses Spelling Shed, as well as Mathletics, the most. These winners are announced in our virtual assembly and certificates are awarded too. Keep working hard on both of these as of course we want Year 3 to feature in the celebrations each week!! We have been working hard on subtraction this week so I have added a subtraction task on Mathletics. However, please do try other activities too!

Next week we are hoping to create some 3D Iron Man scenes to recreate the story we are all enjoying. If you happen to have a spare shoe box at home and also some tiny boxes too please could you possibly send them into school early next week (eg oxo cube boxes or mini gift boxes that would be suitable for Iron Man's body).

Here are our spellings;

our

your

hour

great

who

would

could

should

We are currently working hard on our times tables too. I've sent home a sheet with all the times tables on so please do encourage your child to work really hard to learn the 2's, 3's and 5's; we are testing them on these at the moment, before moving onto the 4's and then 8's.

I have added a short history quiz for the children on 'Teams' so please encourage your child to try this. We focused on Stonehenge this week so it's all about Stonehenge. They should know the answers if they were focusing well in our history lesson this week!!

Well, that's all folks!

Have a wonderful evening and a super weekend!

See you soon,

Mrs Matthews x
