A great way to start the week as Year 3 unlocked their latest reward on their Passport to Privilege and chose a Pyjama Day. They enjoyed coming dressed in their favourite PJs and learning in comfort. A great way to celebrate their hard work and achievements.

Year 3 children have been introduced to using hundreds, tens and ones counters in Maths to help them build numbers with hundreds, tens and ones. It is so important to use the concrete resources to help, before moving onto drawing and then writing the number sentences.

In our first history lesson, we looked at some replica artefacts and photographs of artefacts from the Stone Age & Iron, to try and see what we could work out about life in the Stone Age, as historians have had to do.

Year 3 had a special visitor for their experience day introduced their new story, 'The True Story of the Three Little Pigs'. The Big Bad Wolf came and explained what actually happened and tell us the true story of events. We then just had time to have a go at drawing the Big Bad Wolf.

Year 3 had a great first day back and have settled quickly into life in Year 3. From a behaviour bootcamp to master the rules, to Maths, Handwriting, Spelling, Art and more, it has been a busy first day.
