Hello all Primary 3 families, this week we have had a wonderful time in primary 3.

This week, we have been looking at narrative writing for the first time. We were able to break down the structure of our writing and we had fun coming up with a plan for our first narrative writing piece as a class. We have been doing lots of reading and spelling activities using our sound of the week and some common words.

In numeracy, we had a fun time trying out our array method and having some challenging questions during our Building Thinking Classrooms session. Next week we will be moving on to do the formal written method and will be looking at multiplying 2-digit numbers.

We started our new topic this week which is ‘conservation of wildlife’. During this week we have had a chat about what wildlife is and have drawn pictures of our favourite animals. We learned about different habitats and places the animals can live like the Rainforest and the Ocean.

During RE this week, we learned about SCIAF and what our day of prayer is for and the people in Columbia SCIAF are trying to help. We also read the bible story from the Last Supper and the Garden of Gethsemane. We have been trying super hard with our Big Lent Walk and the children have already walked 250km! They are doing fab and loving it!

Well done to our hot chocolate winner and secret student winner!

I hope you all have a lovely weekend

Miss Duddy
