3T Spring Term

3T have been trying really hard with our Times Tables Rockstars and were champions for the first time in January. We have been practicing our 2,3,4,5,8 and 10 times tables this year.

 

Our class reader this term is The Stone Age Boy by Satoshi Kitamura. It tells us all about a boy getting lost in the Stone Age and finding a friend called Om.

Number Day


On Number Day, 3T had so much fun. The class dressed up covered in numbers, some were football shirts and some were very creative (especially face paint).

We had a darts challenge in assembly, Year 3 were champions of the whole school, including the adults. In class we tried to hit exactly 15 with 3 darts, it was a tough challenge, but some conquered the challenge.

We completed lots of challenges across the day. Such as: football shirt mathematics, drawing the perimeter of our garden fences, build a lego tower exactly 24cm or 240mm, we had a shop where the till was broken and a tricky challenge that had division with remainders.

"I liked the darts!" Sophie

"I was first on TT Rockstars" Eva

"I liked the football kit maths, where you had to add up the numbers." Leo

"I liked building and measuring a tower made of Lego." Edee


World Book Day (6th March)

3T  dressied up as a book from around the world. We have also been studying the world using maps in Geography. World book day saw Matilda, 3 Willy Wonkas, a few from Hogwarts, the Cat in the Hat, witches, my naughty sister and many more.

"I enjoyed dressing up and the Murphy Bars." Hanna
