What a busy full week back! In maths we have started our topic on Fractions. We have been adding and subtracting fractions with the same denominator.

Please ensure that you are still practising multiplication and division on times table rockstars.

In guided reading we have started our new core text 'Charlotte's Web' by E.B. White. We have enjoyed getting to know Wilbur and Fern and have been practising our fluency and comprehension. 

In English began our new book for the term 'Krindlekrax' by Philip Ridley. The children have done some fantastic pieces of persuasive writing and we are loving the characters in the book so far!

Excitingly year 3 had their first swimming lesson this week! Please remember to send your children in with their swimming kits every tuesday. 

In History we are learning about Ancient China and the Shang Dynasty.This week we looked at the chronology of the Shang Dynasty and how it began. We look forward to exploring this topic further.
