What's up in Yr 3

The Year 3s have had a fantastic start to Term 3, and the students have been working hard exploring:

  • We’ve been learning how to make our stories exciting and engaging from the very beginning! We’ve discussed elements of narrative writing, what makes a sizzling start and have begun using storyboards to help us plan our narratives. This allows us to organise our ideas and keep our readers hooked right to the end.
  • We’ve been investigating unit fractions and using them in everyday situations, and we’ve also explored measurement through real-world activities.
  • We also began our new Connected Learning unit called Allies for Inclusion. We’ve started talking about fairness, kindness, and what it means to be a good friend. We are learning to listen to others with understanding and empathy as we explore the idea of social justice.

We can’t wait to see what the rest of the term brings.
