Friday - have a go at the Friday challenge set for this week - it will be added to the white rose website during the week.

All BBC bitesize maths lessons (I believe) go hand in hand with the white rose lessons therefore if you wish for extra/alternative activities, please look here.

Our new topic of study will be 'our dramatic weather including natural disasters'. This, again, will span over two weeks.

We all hope that you have a fantastic weekend!

Regena has spotted this fabulous looking boat in the sea. Can any of you name the type of boat she has spotted? Let me know if you think you know the answer. I'm sure lots of you have become boat experts after all of the learning you have done over the last 2 weeks.
​
If you're not too sure, keep an eye out on the blog later and I will reveal the answer!


It was of course... a dredge boat!

Gosh, I have had one of the most exciting emails through to me....our very own Mirabelle got picked to star and sing in a special lockdown song written by composer Thomas Johnson called 'When all this is over'. She was asked to send in ideas for lyrics and some of the lyrics in the song were inspired by Mirabelle! The video is stunning and brought several tears to my eyes. Click here to get to the video.

Not only did Mirabelle get picked for the song, she was also the youngest and has been asked to be interviewed with one other singer and Thomas Johnson on Radio Devon this Thursday at 11.30am. I know I'll be tuning in!

Well done Mirabelle, we are all so proud of you!

Click here for further information about the song and watch this space as I also believe Mirabelle has been asked to perform the song in the Northcott Theatre in the future!

Friday - can you draw a house which has at least 5 sets of parallel lines and 5 sets of perpendicular lines? Think outside the box though and don't just include these on windows and doors! You could colour coordinate the lines by using a key too. We're looking forward to seeing your houses!

This week is the second week of your 'Boats' themed Topic Web. We shall also be in touch soon for another zoom meeting!

Have a great weekend!

Jas and her brother William went on an adventure in their boats during yesterday's storm! I'm sure the boats were rocking from side-to-side on the choppy water.  I wonder what they saw on their travels...

Good morning Year 3, 

I hope you had a wonderful weekend and a great start to the week with our new, fabulous boats topic. 

A little activity you may like to have a go at if you find time this week is making a Viking Longboat. Here are some pictures to inspire you or you could try the paper model template attached here. 
​

Don't forget to drop me an email with any work or just to let me know how you are doing. I really do love to hear all about what you've been up to. 

Have a great day.

Take care, 
Miss Rowe
