Year 3/4 Blog 16th October 2020

Dear Parents,

This week in Year 3/4, the children have been busy writing poems based on two very important campaigners and sportspeople, Serena Williams and Marcus Rashford. They have worked hard to create interesting amazing free verse poems that show how much the children understand about the positive contribution of these inspirational black people.

In maths, we have been working on multiplication and division. The children have learnt a range of methods. These include grid, expanded and short multiplication. We have focused on short division. We will continue with this next week. It is crucial that the children know all their times tables. We teach children a variety of methods so that they will learn to choose the most efficient method for them. 

Unfortunately, the weather has prevented us from completing all of our Daily Miles this week.  We have tried to get outside as much as possible and get some fresh air

Don't forget to remind your child that homework is on Google Classroom.  They should also be learning their spellings, times tables (don't forget Times Tables Rock Stars) and reading via MyOn. The preference is for the children to be reading a physical book. We use MyOn to supplement the children's reading. As we are unable to send books home from school, this is the alternative provision.

Any problems or you just want to pass on a message then please email us at the usual address.

Have a lovely weekend.

Mrs Hurley, Mr Greenfield, Miss Harvey
