Year 3/4 - Harlequins
Weekly Update (Week ending 14.02.20)
This week...
We have made it through to another half term break.
Well done to all the children. They have all done a lot of maturing and the attitude to learning has improved drastically.
We have enjoyed producing our own narrative based on Leon and the Place Between. The children have worked extremely hard and I am so proud of the work produced.
Both Year 3 and 4 have come to the end of their topics in Maths and will move on to new units of learning after half term.
There are no snips of the methods used this week. Instead use the time to revise times tables.
In science, we've finished our learning about electricity. We summarised our learning with a poster detailing all the wonderful things we now know.
During our topic lesson, we will still be looking at the Anglo-Saxons. We will be exploring the religion of the Anglo-Saxons and linking our guided reading to the topic too.. In Geography, we will be getting outside, looking at places we would settle on the school grounds.
In RE, we will be looking at Good Friday and sacred places to reflect and worship.
It has been lovely to award so many badges on Marvellous Me this week. Please remember to sign up, if you have not already done so, in order to receive updates about our learning and your child's in-class achievements.
MPL now has its own twitter account - this is a great way to keep up to date with everything that is going on in school.
Dojo Points and Golden Time
To clarify, children who demonstrate our learning animal behaviours earn dojo points. As a class, the children are working towards a total that will earn them an afternoon of golden time. This is an ambitious target, agreed with the children, that can take a few weeks to achieve. As well as this, each child needs to earn over a certain amount to ensure that they receive the full amount of golden time. This strategy encourages all children to work hard, rather than simply relying on the positive behaviour of others to get them to the class target.
Have a lovely half term,
Miss Lewis
