Features of a diary

Y3 Jemison have worked together to highlight the key features of a diary to prepare for writing our own entries inspired by our class text Mufaro’s Beautiful Daughter. We spotted features such as fronted adverbials, writing in first person and including feelings and know why they are important for this type of writing.

Missing numbers!

We have used our rekenreks to help us find missing numbers in part-part-whole models. We know that if we need to find a missing whole, we use addition and that if we need to find a missing part, we use subtraction.

Timers in Coding

We explored the different uses of the timer in coding. We used the timers to make the rabbit appear and hide and to make the magician move at set times from the start of the program.

Q5 – Islam

We have continued to learn about the lives of significant people of faith. This week we learnt about Prophet Muhammad from the Islamic faith. We learnt that he encourages Muslims to carry out acts of kindness to support others. We then thought about and designed our own acts of kindness.

Tudor Houses

We have explored the design and structure of Tudor houses. We then used chalks and charcoal to create pictures of Tudor houses in our sketch books.

Traditional Tales

We have explored good and evil characters and settings. We used the suggested character and setting types to help us choose who we would like to see in our own stories.

Character voices!

We are really enjoying our text ‘George’s Marvellous Medicine’ by Roald Dahl. We are working hard to use our voices in different ways for different characters to bring the text to life.
