This week's Home Learning and upcoming dates

Hello everyone,

We have been delighted by the number of year 3 children completing their home learning each week.
This week all children were given a maths worksheet linked to the maths they have been learning in class.

The class were also asked to continue to think about their ideas for an adventure / explorer story that they will be writing next week. Talking and expressing thoughts verbally is a vital part of the writing process for children. If possible it would be very helpful if you could talk to your child about their story ideas.
Questions to prompt discussion:
1) Tell me about the main character of your story. What do they look like? What is their personality like?       
2) Why is your character going on an adventure? 
3) Where are they going to explore? Arctic or Antarctic?
4) What problem could your character face on their adventure?

There are lots of things happening in the next few weeks. Here's some dates for your diaries.
