We are very busy people!



Today, as I was talking to my class about how I would like them to read our blog and comment on the blog, I realised that they have very busy lives and finding time for reading and commenting on the blog is sometimes a difficult thing to do.

We started having a conversation about what we do after school.  Here are some of the responses from some very busy children:

Are you really busy or do you wish you had more to do after school?
Do you watch T.V or play on the computer?  Richie and Bua didn't mention that in their writing, but I bet they spend some time in front of a screen.

E-Classroom - get clicking - tutor based classes

I hope you all had a good day at home.  I'll set up a new survey to find out how you are getting on.  The teachers were all really busy in Year 3 today, designing work to help you learn.  We've got a great mix of reading, doing, watching, making, cutting, adding, multiplying....
Well done to Tahn, Jess, Oliver and Prabhav who have completed the addition and subtraction quiz already!
Tomorrow there will be more activities which will appear like magic.
What do you think of the new cloud tag...the words which float about? Click a word and see which blog post or posts it is about.

Science Site

Do you want to do some science at home? Follow the link to the Exploratorium. BUT make sure that you get help from an adult first. Have a go at making the bee hummer and send me a picture of what it looks like.
