Fastest Finger First

Y3LP are developing their retrieval skills by locating information from non-fiction texts.

Stone Age Non-fiction

Y3LP are enjoying exploring their Stone Age non-fiction text. We completed some paired reading and then located information from the text to answer a range of retrieval questions.

Cudworth Library

Y3LP had a lovely visit to Cudworth Library. Our lovely librarian, Gill, told the children all about how the library works and how to join. We then completed a scavenger hunt and spent some time exploring the beautiful books.

Published Pieces

Y3LP have worked exceptionally hard on completing their first published pieces in y3. A character description of The Truth Pixie.

Non-Fiction reading

Y3LP have explored a new non-fiction text for Fabulous Fluency Friday. We completed our partner reading and then answered some questions by finding evidence in the text. We finished with a ‘would you rather…?’ question, really thinking about the reasons behind our answers.

Signs of Autumn

After collecting signs of Autumn on our Autumn walk, we were able to label them correctly with our groups.

Autumn vocabulary walk 

Y2DA had a wonderful morning exploring nature and collecting vocabulary for our Autumn acrostic poem. We can identify nouns and adjectives when collecting our ideas.

Story maps 

Year 2 have created some wonderful story maps of their class text, The Owl Who was Afraid of the Dark. We included key chapters and vocabulary from our reading and the shared with our sequences with our peers.

Autumn

This week we went on a walk to spot signs of Autumn. This helped us with our writing.

Book review D

We orally reviewed our class text – Funny Bones. We could tell each other what the story is about, who our favourite character is and what our best part is.

Rosalind Franklin Class collaborated…

The Year 4 Rosalind Franklin Class collaborated to create a travelling sequence about the framer’s plot to catch the Iron Man. Our dance expressed the theme of friendship and support I the class text; The Iron Man by Ted Hughes. Everyone was included!

Amazing Grace

Y3LP have completed their reading of the text ‘Amazing Grace’. We shared our favourite parts of the story and then thought about what questions we still want to ask Grace. We drafted the questions on our whiteboards and then used hot seating to explore the answers.
