Poems
This week in Year 3/4 reading sessions, we have been reading a range of poetry. There have been some good discussions about what they mean, the themes and the effect on the reader (us!).
Here is one which is linked to our topic book, Here We Are.
It’s called …
‘A Love Letter to the Stars’
We enjoyed spotting rhyming words- can you spot the rhyming pattern?
One of our pupils felt inspired to write her own poem. It’s wonderful! Thank you for sharing it, Tallulah!
Hi! My name is June
and I love the moon,
I love how it is so big
That I can never dig it,
I love how the stars can move to each place,
Like they are so close to space.
By Tallulah

Writing Instructions – How to have a happy and healthy class!
We’ve been working on writing instructions in Year 3/4 this week.
In pairs, we worked collaboratively to write a set of instructions on ‘How to have a happy and healthy class’.
To improve our sentences, we have used adverbs.
We are very proud of our writing – here are some examples:
Living and Learning: Friends and Family
In our Living and Learning lessons this week, we discussed being kind and the impact it has on others. We read a lovely book called The Rainbow Fish.
The book is best known for its message about selfishness and sharing and for the distinctive shiny foil scales of the Rainbow Fish.
We talked about the feelings of the different characters and made new scales for them
