Highlights
Another fab week has flown by in Class 3. A highlight has to be our work in History exploring Egyptian hieroglyphics. The children all worked hard on Friday afternoon to make their own cartouches with their names in hieroglyphics. I was very impressed with some of our artist skills!
Challenge – Can you write a message in hieroglyphics for someone to solve?
Talking of artistic skills please remember to collect collage materials for Art week next week – just incase you missed it on last weeks blog, details can be found below…
NEEDED FOR WEEK COMMENCING 21st October
For Art Week we would like each child to collect a small bag of collage materials. This can be pages of magazines, coloured wrappers, shiny paper, tissue paper, strips of paper, wallpaper left overs. I thought it might be useful to give a prior warning so everyone can start collecting bits. We will be using them to complete individual collages linked to our Egypt work.
What’s happening next week?
On Monday, we will be having our Harvest Festival in school. If anyone would like to bring in a donation, all product will be going to the food bank. Thanks in advance for any products.
All children should have come home with their parents evening appointments. I look forward to seeing everyone on Tuesday.
Spellings
Below are the spellings that will be given out on Tuesday. For the next two weeks, we will be consolidating the different spelling patterns that we have looked at this half term. The following lists include spellings from previous weeks and should serve as a recap and allow us to consolidate them further.
Challenge – Can your child choose ten spellings and apply them to their writing?
