Week beginning 29th June

 

This week in Year 3, students explored “How to Live Forever” by Colin Thompson, engaged in thoughtful literacy discussions, focused on statistics in maths and completed their last swimming session at Furzfield.

English

This week, Year 3 started reading the story "How to Live Forever" by Colin Thompson, which sparked thoughtful debates and extraordinary ideas among the students. Literacy activities will be centered around understanding the characters and the dilemmas they face in the story, encouraging students to reflect and develop their analytical and creative skills.

Maths

In maths, the focus has been on statistics: students have been learning to read and interpret data as well as present it using various graphs and charts. BBC Bitesize has been highlighted as a particularly helpful resource for explaining what data is and why it is useful for understanding and visualizing information.
