Term 6 Week 3

This week in Literacy we have been learning about ways to edit and improve our learning. We practiced using different homophones, commas in a list and for clauses, and also determining between facts and opinions in non-fiction texts. 

In Maths, Year 3 consolidated all understanding of time, representing time by drawing accurate hands on a clock and reading given times on a clock. We broke down telling the time to 5-minute intervals, by focusing on the 'past' times in one session and the 'to' times in another, before combining them together. The children have worked really hard to tell the time, please keep this up at home whenever possible.  We finished the week by identifying if events take seconds, hours or minutes. Year 4 consolidated their learning on time converting between analogue and digital clocks, and using timetables to find periods of time. 

In History, we learnt about Ancient Greek religion and how they believed in a range of Gods and Goddesses. In Art, we completed our perspective drawings by colouring them in the style of David Hockney. In Music we practiced conducting our own musical arrangements for call and response songs. 

We hope you have a lovely weekend, 

Mr Saunders, Mrs Hendry and Miss Parkes.
