Watch out for these letters arriving in the post soon as Primary 3 will be posting them to you!<\/p>\n<p>Next week, Primary 3 will be writing a newspaper report on the museum burglars from the story and how Flat Stanley saved the day. On Monday we will be discussing as a class the\u00a0 layout of a newspaper and the purpose of a newspaper report. A great preparation\u00a0 would be perhaps talking with your child about this beforehand as this can help their contribution to the discussion.<\/p>\n<p>Primary 3 loved the part of the story where Flat Stanley disguised himself as Bo Peep. Just like Flat Stanley they \u00a0disguised themselves to see what it was like.<\/p>\n<p>Lucy \u2013 \u2018I had a mask and a summer hat on, it was fun!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dawid \u2013 \u201cI was dressed as a skeleton and I had a mask on too!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Stefan \u2013 \u201cI was dressed up as a firefighter.

We also met Odd Todd and Even Steven for the first time to help us with odd and even numbers.\u00a0 We will be consolidating our understanding of addition within 20. We know this is really important as these will form our building blocks for manipulating larger numbers.<\/p>\n<p>This interactive Number Facts activity is helpful for extra reinforcement.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.topmarks.co.uk\/number-facts\/number-fact-families\">https:\/\/www.topmarks.co.uk\/number-facts\/number-fact-families<\/a><\/p>\n<p><u>Literacy<\/u><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI love my new reading book\u201d \u2013 Leigha.<\/p>\n<p><em>Word Boost\u00a0<\/em>&amp;<em> Handwriting<\/em>\u2013 we have loved our Word Boost Story this week, it was called \u2018Six Dinner Sid\u2019s Highland Adventure\u2019. \u00a0Primary 3 have been so receptive to the story and all of the associated activities to extend their vocabulary. Words for this week have been agile, require, dare, swoop, defend and appetite.
