Derwent What’s Happening This Week

(Week Commencing 24th September 2018)

In Derwent this week we are learning the following:

English:

In English this week we will start to write our information text on Autumn. A caterpillar challenge will be in the provision as the children found one outside last week and were amazed at the fact they found one in Autumn. We will also continue to look at different sentence types as part of the genre we are exploring.

SPaG/Phonics:

In spelling, punctuation and grammar we are continuing to focus on recapping phase 5 phonics patterns. Year 3s are focussing on learning to read, spell and use the common exception words for LKS2.

Maths:

In maths we are focusing on place value and gaining a deep understanding of what numbers mean. To embed this skill even more, I have some diving deeper challenges.

Creative Curriculum:

We work on a theme every term and this term our key question is ‘How do we solve conflict?’ We will continue to observe the changes of trees as the weather changes. This will also link with our geography work on human and physical features.
