What have Y3 been up to?

Week 1: 05.09.2025

What an incredible start to the new academic year we have had this week! The children have shown wonderful resilience in their new educational surroundings as well demonstrating amazing behaviour. If this is how the students mean to continue in Year 3 then this is going be a sensational year!

During Maths, we have been learning about partitioning into tens and ones using part-whole models and representing this in different ways. We have also started morning maths to improve fluency which has shown to be exceptionally effective so far. 

During Reading and Writing, we have looked at "The Day The Crayons Came Home" which has informed our writing, especially when looking at adjectives, the features of informal letters and author inference.

We even managed to learn about the stone age which links into our topic for this half term. How exciting! 

The whole Year 3 team can't wait to see everyone bright and early on Monday. Have a wonderful weekend,

Miss Jones, Mr. Jones and the rest of the Year 3 team.
