In English we have been reading the book 'A River' by Marc Martin. We have enjoyed exploring the illustrations and imagining our own journeys on a small, sailing boat. In art we created clay tiles to represent the different places on the journey. This week we painted the tiles and then covered them with PVA glue. We think they look great! Why not tell your grown up which location your tile represents. Mr Fykin has set us an extreme reading challenge for the holidays. To complete this challenge we would like you to take a photo reading your book in the most unusual place. However, please ensure that a grown up is with you and that you are safe. Examples could include; reading whilst at the park, reading in the supermarket or even reading in the paddling pool! Where could you read your book? Here are a few examples. Then send your photos to office@rushmerehall.org.uk with the title extreme reading. I hope you all have a wonderful Easter break and I look forward to seeing you back at school on Wednesday 24th April.     This week we have been challenging our times table knowledge and applying it to the inverse operation, which is division. In Year 2 we used sharing circles to answer questions like 21 ÷3, but now we know we can count in 3's until we get to 21. Therefore we know the answer is ....7! Below are some images to help you recognise the inverse of multiply. Why not try these questions: 35 ÷ 5= 64 ÷ 8= 18 ÷ 2 = 24 ÷ 3 =   Today year 3 were very lucky and we had a Hockey coach come in for a taster session. We learnt how to hold a stick, dribble and played some competitive games. There will be a club starting Monday which will be lead by a Hockey coach. Letters will have gone home today but there is a copy. We are learning lots in maths about statistics, can you try this question at home? Have a great weekend! Some children in Class 4 are in a club. This table shows the club they are in.  We have really been enjoying our Roman topic and all had a great time on our trip to Colchester castle last week! Isobel's mum kindly brought in some Roman artefacts from the Ipswich museum for us to look at. We have been using these in our Art sessions using the new drawing and shading techniques we've been learning!   Please remember to book your slot on the school website. The meetings this term will take place on Tuesday 16th October 3.50pm- 8pm and Thursday 18th October 3.50pm -6pm.
I look forward to sharing with you how your child is getting on in Year 3 so far. Ms Mackay We've had such a busy and exciting week in 3M! We had a visit from Mr. Kightley to share his Roman artefacts and made moon landers in Science to land our astronauts safely on the moon! Have a restful weekend!     |
