First News children's newspaper

During Lockdown First News are letting us have free access to their weekly newspaper. This is a weekly newspaper aimed at 7 to 14-year-olds that aims to get kids talking about the news in an easy to understand and non-threatening way.

It cover issues which are relevant to children and which specifically affect them. Inside you’ll find a mix of world news and UK news, but also loads of fun stuff, such as entertainment, games, animals, sport and puzzles.

Outdoor Learning Activities

Please find attached a grid containing some outdoor learning activities that your child can do at home.  There are activities for children in early years, ages 5 to 9 and 9 to 12.  You and your child can of course choose an activity from any section. I will add a new grid each week.  Any photos or work can be uploaded on to seesaw and sent to your class teacher.  I hope that you enjoy these activities and look forward to hearing all about them.  

Take care

Year 3 Home Learning 4th January 2021

Happy New Year - if children would like to make a start on completing the Happy New Year sheet that would be great (see attached document below).

We look forward to seeing all Year 3 soon but while we are all keeping safe we will blog home learning each week during lockdown.  

We have attached the home learning grid with learning for children to complete at home. Once work is complete please update it onto Seesaw. It is a good idea to try to do daily: Physical exercise, Maths & English.

Christmas fun

Year 3 had a brilliant day! First we completed Santa Dash. Then we learnt about Save the Children Charity that holds a Christmas Jumper Day every year to help children around the world stay safe, healthy and keep learning. After a busy morning, it was time for our festive Christmas dinner. It was delicious! In the afternoon we had Christmas fair in our classroom. We decorated a ginerbread man and  had a go at tombola and lucky dip. Everyone got a prize!
