Term 1, Week 13
November has come to a
close with another week busy week in 3 Sahara!
We continued our data
handling focus in Numeracy, looking specifically at
pictograms and interpreting information from this type of graph. Later in the
week we started our new unit on Fractions and with the help of pretend pizzas, the
children have been grasping the new language and learning to identify different
fractions.
In Literacy we have looked
closely at another main feature of instructions – adverbs. We have learnt how
to use these to give greater detail to our instructions and help make
instructions easier to follow. Using a checklist of all the features of this
text genre, the children have also been analysing a range of instructions to
check their effectiveness.
Art and Topic joined forces this week and the children thoroughly enjoyed developing their sketching skills to create the most amazing dinosaurs!
Christmas spirit is indeed
in the air at BISB and we hope to see you at the Christmas Fair tomorrow. A
special reminder that your child’s tealight candle holder will be available to
purchase at our Year 3 stall.
