Missing Shoes

Max (Class 3) took home the wrong pair of shoes from after-school clubs this week – Next black lace-ups size 7 – which are now in Class 3’s store cupboard.  Please can you check that your child did not bring Max’s shoes home by mistake which are Clarks Bootleg black lace-ups size 5.   If you do find that your child has brought Max’s shoes home, please can you email school to let us know.

Class 3 Homework

The children have been set some homework on purple mash to complete over half term. It is due in on Friday 3rd March.

I have handed out paper copies to the children who requested them.

Their task is to complete an information page/poster about everything they can remember about the Roman Army and Roman Soldiers. They can use key features they have learned in class such as headings, sub-headings, pictures and captions.

 

Class 3 Weekly Update

English: We have been creating our own information texts about the Romans this week. The children have been including key features such as headings, sub-headings and captions in their writing. They have also been focusing on using the third person and past tense.

Maths: We have been learning about Roman Numerals this week. We have learned how the Romans used simple addition and subtraction sums to create their numbers. We have also practised telling the time using a Roman Numeral clock.

History: Our History work has been linked to our English work. The children have researched about Roman Soldiers, particularly the uniform they wore as well as finding out other facts about the Roman army.

Computing: The children have been creating pictures on the laptops and have learned how to order their work using the ‘bring to front’, ‘send to back’ features.

PSHE: We have been learning how to manage our feelings, particularly thinking about what to do when we feel angry.

PE: The children have finished off their country dance work by learning a new dance including key techniques already taught.

Have a lovely half term everyone!

 

 

 

Class 3 Spellings – to be tested on Friday 3rd March

Week 21

Homework: Junk model musical instrument

Over the half term we would like children in Class 1 to make a musical instrument to bring into school on the first week back.  We would love to see what they can create using empty cereal boxes/tubes/ food packaging etc.  Don’t forget to put photos up on Tapestry of their creating.

The children will then get a chance to show the rest of the class their handiwork and the whole class will use them as part of our Mardi Gra celebrations.

We are also collecting junk modelling  so that the children can do more junk modelling during Child Initiated times.
