We have had a busy but fun 4 day week in P3!

To complete our unit on Michael Foreman’s stories, the students have written their own version of I’ll Take you to Mrs Cole, in which they followed the style and plot of the story. The children have been great at adding their own creative ideas, whilst focusing on some of the key writing techniques and using a range of conjunctions with descriptive language.

In Numeracy, the P3s have extended their knowledge of Place Value to money. As we follow the British curriculum, we also use British currency. This system particularly helps with place value as there are amounts in the hundreds, tens and ones e.g. £9.67. This week students have been reacquainting themselves with British coins, counting amounts and comparing different amounts using greater than and less than symbols.

In Science, we have continued our unit on Keeping Healthy by investigating muscles. The students were super at predicting, investigating and recording which muscles they use during different exercises.

For Art, we took a closer look at Michael Foreman’s illustrations, taking note of how he used watercolours, and particularly how he used different shades of the same colours within his pictures. The students then created their own Michael Foreman style watercolour paintings to brighten up the classroom!

Yesterday, we had another lovely trip to the beach. Please have a look at our photos below.

Hope everyone is having a great weekend!
