Another week closer to the Christmas holidays, but another week of working hard in Lower Junior 3!

This week, we started our learning of another book in English, the Tin Forest. We looked at the advantages and disadvantages of living there, compared to our lives as well as making a set of rules to go alongside it. We also wrote a postcard to the 'Old Man' offering him advice of ways that he could overcome his sadness. 

In RE, we were looking at the Jesse Tree, and looked at the parables of Jesus' ancestors and how they link with Jesus and his journey through life. We created baubles to hang on our Jesse Tree of the parables that we thought were important. We also used the bible, and a contents page, to locate the stories and what symbol would be a good representation.

In Reading, we are continuing with our book, 'Tamarind and the Star of Ishta'. We were looking at some key words from the story and working out what we thought they meant. We found them in the book and read the words in context of the story. 

In Maths, we have been working on times tables, specifically the 3x and 4x table, looking at multiplication and division.
