This week the children have been learning about remembrance and the reason we remember those that risked their lives for others. We have been creating poppy wreaths to be laid on remembrance day and they have been decorating biscuits with poppies.

We were really lucky to have Kent Fire and Rescue Service visit the school at the beginning of term.

The children learnt about the role of a fire fighter, we saw what protective clothing they have to wear and how they keep safe.

We also learnt some rhymes to help keep us safe…

Matches, lighters

never touch

They can hurt you

very much

We also learnt that every week we should check our smoke detectors, so that when we are sleeping they can be our eyes and our noses and detect fire for us!

Keep your family safe from harm

Have a working smoke alarm

Homework has been assigned this week on Mathletics.  There are four tasks to complete on Place Value, involving more than and less than.

Year 4 have reviewed their topic of Fashion and shared their hard work and creations with a catwalk display during today’s celebration assembly.

Boogie Bounce was great fun for all the children.  It certainly took some energy to keep bouncing for 20

minutes!

Both classes then tested materials as part of our science topic this term to find out which material would be the best for a fireman’s hose!

We have been learning the days of the week as part of our Mental Maths lessons this week.

Can you remember the song and use it to help you remember which day comes next?

Have fun with this game too….

We hope you are having a lovely half term!

Just a quick reminder that homework is due on Wednesday 3rd November.

Also all of year 3 has been allocated mathletics homework and we are encouraging everyone to use the new mathletics layout.

We are excited for our new topics titled ‘Chocolate’ this term!  Expect many chocolaty facts and exciting lessons.

See you all on Monday,

The Year 3 Team.

Well.. What a way to end the term!

We had a great last day, the children decorated their t-shirts, made some bug foods and we then spent the afternoon enjoying all our hard work from the morning 🙂

We had a surprise visit from our very own hungry caterpillar who came to check that we had remembered all the sounds we had learnt this term. The children had bubbles to enjoy the sunshine outside and then we practised our butterfly dancing (amongst other insects) with Miss Durham.

Thank you to all the parents who supported us by bringing in t-shirts.

Have a great Half term break.
