Week 9

IPC topic:
 
Footprints from the Past

When dinosaurs ruled the earth



 

In class the children did some research about  dinosaurs.
 
 
Using a framework they wrote their own dinosaur report.
 
 
We talked about ‘Food Chains’ and we intend to continue with this next week.

 
 Year 3  Sahara class assembly will be based on our current focus; DINOSAURS…..

We will be performing live to you and to Key Stage 2 pupils

        on Friday 22nd November

We were excited to read the latest news about dinosaurs, see the link below;



 
Literacy

Our focus this week was on Report Writing. We talked about writing facts and organising sentences into paragraphs. Using a framework they have started writing their own dinosaur report with support.
 

Maths

This week our maths work concentrated on ‘Measures’. The children were confident in measuring length whilst a little more was required to grasp the concept of weight. We estimated and weighed to develop the idea and their understanding.
Maths homework this week is to continue to explore capacity.

Further opportunities to practice are available online;
