Year 3- Broadford Skills

 


What a fantastic term we’ve had in Year 3! We’ve been busy learning lots of new skills to help us stay safe, make healthy choices and become more independent.

We’ve learnt all about fire safety, including what to do if there is a fire and how to use the important stop, drop and roll technique. We now know why it is so important to stay calm and follow safety advice in an emergency.

We’ve also been practising our table manners! We learnt how to set a table correctly, hold and use a knife and fork appropriately, and show good manners when eating together. We also explored how to tie our shoelaces, practising this useful skill eis very important and helps build our independence along the way!

Another important part of our learning has been understanding the importance of healthy snack choices. We explored how the food we eat can affect our brains, concentration and ability to learn. We then put our knowledge into practice by making our own delicious, healthy snacks!

Finally, we had a go at using a tape measure to measure different objects. We had lots of fun practising this new skill, and everyone gave it their best go!

We are so proud of all the new skills we’ve learnt this term. We’ve had lots of fun, grown in confidence and taken another step towards becoming more independent learners. Well done, Year 3!





Have a fantastic Half-term and we looking forward to seeing you on your return!

Year 4 Subject Blog - Literacy

We have loved reading our book, The Bogey Men and the Trolls Next Door by Kaye Umansky. The children used their 4 R's (Resilience, Reciprocity, Resourcefulness, and Reflectiveness) throughout the unit! First, we explored the fun poetry in the book. We learned how to write funny 5-line poems called limericks using a special AABBA rhyming pattern. Next, the children wrote their own diary entries from a character's point of view. They started with "Dear Diary", wrote their events in order from morning to night, and described how the character was feeling throughout the day.

We are so proud of everyone's fantastic writing!


"I loved writing limericks because making the AABBA words rhyme and made me laugh!" - Riddhi, Elm

"It was fun pretending to be a troll and writing about feeling cross in my diary!" - Emily, Maple

"I remembered to write 'Dear Diary' first and put all the day's events in order!" - Inayah, Willow
