Find a cosy place to read today, could it be on the sofa or in a den? James and Kiefer managed to meet their reading targets, well done boys!

Before you reach the holiday this weekend it is really important you make reading over the break a priority.

The Lancashire Library Service is here to help. Please click on the link to find out more about the Silly Squad library reading challenge and then press the join button on the web page to sign up if you haven’t already.

Here is the last of our RE lessons.

Maths

Please spend some time today playing the board game you made yesterday, try to get the family involved. Have fun!

Word cloud

I would like you to create your own word art about Year 3. Please click below for how to make yours.

Purple Mash

Please go on to the sharing tab and look at all of the Year 3 display boards to see some of your own and your friend’s work. There is lots of fantastic work to celebrate!

Tomorrow

Tomorrow there won’t be a blog from me, instead there is a whole school learning challenges blog for you to complete.

Look out for a blog later on today to celebrate the end of Year 3 with our photos and goodbyes.
