Year 3 News

From Lizzie, Year 3 teacher
Cool Year 3's
3A
This term 3A really enjoyed art because we got to use texters to draw Lunar New Year animals. We also had fun playing maths games because working in pairs was enjoyable. We loved reading quietly after second lunch especially when we got to log in to Epic and read books on the app for the first time. Some other things we like about Year 3 so far are playing on the big playgrounds and using our iPads at school.
3B
In 3B, the things we have enjoyed most about learning in Year 3 so far:
I have enjoyed doing the Chinese snake in Art for Lunar New Year - Amay
I like visualising during Reading because you get to draw about you think - Kento
I like how we have more challenging things to learn, like in maths and we get to do Geography which is new. - Vika
I enjoyed reading the class book the Magic Finger because it is a very fun book. - Deya
My favourite is Art because you get to draw things like a dragon and I like drawing. - Shayz
I like doing new activities like Geography and reading on Epic.- Grace
3C
In 3C we have a Dimetrodon. This is a prehistoric animal that looks a little bit like a spinosaurus and a little bit like a lizard. In real life he would be as big as an adult human. We did a class vote to decide his name. Some of the options included Hope, Greenie and Gory. At the end the most votes were for Pebbles. Pebbles can be a little bit sneaky and naughty and sometimes he hides in our classroom. But he always finds his way back home and we still love him.

My favourite thing about Grade 3 is we can publish our writing on the iPads. Because its fun to use technology. And I love how this campus is so big because now I can play hide and seek much better. - Chanel
My favourite thing about Grade 3 is always get to study with Hannah. Something that surprise me is my friend gets the same class as me. I like being at Grade 3 because i get to study more. - Erinn
3E
Hello! You might be wondering how it’s going so far. We are rocking grade 3! We have made our own Acknowledgement of Country and class agreement and settled in well. Our class used to be the old school library and now it is a fully functioning classroom. We like keeping our water bottles in our classroom mini fridge/freezer.
We are enjoying reading a class novel, called ‘Charlotte’s Web’ and learning lots of new words such as ‘brook’ and ‘salutations’. We made a birthday graph of our class. Most people have their birthdays in February, April and July. We have began using iPads for learning about landmarks and features.
We love learning maths through games such as ‘greedy pig, mastermind, dice games and place value games. We enjoy creating ideas for writing and using seeds to build on our topics. Our grade’s favourite specialist subjects are Art, Science and PE! We are looking forward to cooking, gardening and camp this year.
Thanks, we call ourselves 3E Cool!
