Welcome to the wonderful world of 3P. On this blog we will share our learning with you. Please delve in and unlock the magic hidden within the pages. While visiting, we hope you will also take the time to leave a comment on one of our pages. We hope you enjoy looking around and we look forward to hearing from you.
We cannot believe it is over already. We had lots of fun orienteering, wall climbing, singing at the camp fire and much much more! The food was amazing and all the staff at Northstar Norikura were fantastic! There are hundreds of photographs (and we mean hundreds) but here are just a few (quite a lot actually) in a video slideshow. We hope you enjoy looking at them!
Friday 15th May 2015 Another busy week has finished in 3P and the end of the year is getting a lot closer! However, there is still lots of learning taking place and we are still enjoying everyone minute of it. This week we have been learning about broadcasts. We have identified different ways of conveying information to people and the importance of identifying the key information. We then had a go at writing our own broadcast scripts using our traditional fairy tales for ideas. Check out a couple of our reports below:
As well as this, we also got to watch our French performances this week. There were so many unique ideas and everyone had worked hard to make sure their pronunciation was perfect.
Here is Savanna's, Jaya's and Maia's video. Stay tuned for the others.
Only one more week until our half term.
Which means......
10 DAYS TILL 3P/3G GO TO NORIKURA!!!!! WE CANNOT WAIT!!
Friday 8th May 2015 Our final play performance is close and we cannot wait to show the other Year 3 children the play we scripted ourselves. We have been busy rehearsing and we definitely think that our play belongs on Broadway! Here is just a sneaky peak. We promise to share the whole play with you at the end of next week.
Tuesday 5th May 2015 What a fabulous day we have had! Sports day 2015 was amazing and we loved every minute of it. We would like to say a BIG thank you to Miss Gray and Miss Purewal for all their hard work. Everyone showed great team spirit and everyone tried their best.
Well done to Adams, Summers, Glover and Hearn.

Wednesday 29th April 2015 Over the past few weeks we have been busy at track practising for sports day! We have been practising the hurdles, 100m spirit and 400m relay. In school we have also been practising our throwing, catching and long jump skills.We cannot wait for sports day! Do not forget it is TUESDAY 5TH MAY 2015. Here are a few pictures from our practices.
Friday 24th April 2015 If you came to school and realised you were going to do Numeracy all day how would you feel? Well today that is what happened in 3P. Well maybe it was not all day but we did do a lot of Numeracy and it wasFUN! and EXCITING! and totally INSPIRING! Today we have had the opportunity to play the Numeracy games we have created for home learning. We had a lot of fun getting to grips with the instructions and then battling it out to see who would be crowned the winner. There were so many different games and each one had its own personal touches. Here are just a few pictures:
In addition to this, we also learnt how to use a Japanese abacus thanks to Maia and Lulu. It was a little challenging at first but after a couple of practices we started to understand how to use it. We enjoyed this so much that we are going to have another practice next week. 3P are going to become abacus experts!
Wednesday 15th April 2015 Do you enjoy going to the theatre? Well today we brought the theatre to 3P. Who were the actors? The wonderful 3P of course. Who needs Brad Pitt when you have all of us! Today we started to look at the structure of play scripts and how they differ from the other stories we have read. Here are some of the things we noticed: - Play scripts include a character list. - The use the characters name before the text to indicate who is talking. - They do not use said words or speech marks. - Play scripts use italics to indicate an action. - Play scripts include stage directions for both actors and those involved in the production. Plus lots more. Once we had done this we decided to act out a few of the play scripts we had. Here they are:
