Year 3/4 Blog Daisy and Sunflower classes

 

Friday 27th September 2024    

Happy Friday! We've made it to  the end of another busy week. The children have all been working hard looking at instruction writing in English and Stone Age cave paintings in Art. On Tuesday, they also enjoyed  a Virtual School visit with author and wildlife photographer workshop with Hamza Yassin.  

We have seen lots of reading at home taking place so please make sure this is being done. When the children read their book, they can complete a quiz. Each week, the child who reads the most words will receive a ticket which goes in a jar. At the end of each half term, some are picked out to attend a Harry Potter tea party!

With the weather on the decline, can we ask that the children come to school with a coat every day. We tend to go out at break and lunchtimes unless it is heavy rain.

Spelling Frame Rule 3

This week we would like the children to focus on: Spelling Rule 3
Your child has their login details glued into their reading diaries. They will be tested at the end of every week on these spellings so PLEASE practise at home.

Times Tables

This week we are looking at the 10 x tables and the children will be tested and taking part in times table activities throughout the week.

Spelling and Times Table Books

The children will bring home a book with their weekly spellings and times table focus stuck in. Please initial these to say you have gone through them with your child. We will continue to practise these in class through testing and handwriting practice but extra practice at home is vital.
