This week, Year 3 Gold did lots of fun things in our lessons!
In numeracy, we learnt about how to find the perimeter of lots of different shapes. We learnt that finding the perimeter is when you add together all of the sides. We then made a stone age map using art straws and the perimeter of 2D shapes. We also learnt what a trapezium is! A trapezium has four sides!
In literacy we were looking at what a journalist is and what they do. A journalist is someone who writes about loads of different subjects like the weather or sports. We learnt about the different features of a newspaper article and we interviewed our friends! We even had the opportunity to write our own pretend article.
For our topic lessons, we had a closer look at sedimentary rocks and where they came from. Sedimentary rocks can be found on mountains and cliffs.
We had LOADS of fun things to learn and it has been exciting!!!!!

This week, year 3 gold had some fantastic experiences! In our numeracy lessons we learnt how to use the expanded column method, which is when you use partitioning and addition. We also had a visit from the Dogs Trust. They are people who look after mistreated dogs and find new homes for them. We met a dog called Tiger in an assembly and he showed us some tricks!
We also made non-chronological reports called fact files. These were about the amazing Stone Age. We found out that cave people did cave paintings using blood and berries. In our Science lessons, we learnt about the different types of rocks like sedimentary, metamorphic and igneous rocks.
We also have some general news! We had a new boy in our class who started on Thursday. His name was Michael and he is very good at Maths. It was also Sophie's birthday and we celebrated by getting some delicious chocolate!!!!!!
