Reading minutes challenge - Day 1

Our reading minutes challenge started yesterday and today we have collected in the minutes.


Well done to Bubblegush group (what an amazing group name too!) for reading the magnificent total of 208 minutes yesterday. All 4 members (Melanie, Toby, Joe and Annabel) of the group:

• read
• wrote down their reading minutes
• brought their sheet to school

Not far behind is The Beast Children with 175 minutes.

Ahead so far in the individual challenge is Seb on the page turning total of 101 minutes!

Have a look here for the scores.

How many minutes did 3W read altogether on Monday?

Parents, please remind your child to bring in the reading minutes sheet every day this week, with minutes written down and a signature from you (if possible) to "certify" the minutes.

Thanks.

Mymaths - coordinates homework

Tonight's homework for maths is the Mymaths coordinates activity. It should be completed by next Monday, 14th June.

Reading minutes

I gave out the reading minutes record sheets today and will start to add the information to the class spreadsheet tomorrow.

Remember:

You must record your reading on the record sheet.
You must bring the record sheet to class every day so that reading minutes can be added to the class spreadsheet.
When reading at home, try to get an adult to sign for the minutes you read.

You will need to have a reading book in class - either a school book or a home book - so that you can Drop Everything And Read.

Today was great, with lovely, silent, enjoyable reading going on in class.

Keep it up at home!

Sharing books with K2T

During book week we will be having

• Character Day on Friday 11th June (come dressed up if possible and bring 100 Baht for the Y3 charity)
• DEAR time in class (Drop Everything And Read) - so bring a favourite book to keep on your desk so that you can read it whenever you hear the signal...
• Book sharing with K2T (Miss Tracey) on Thursday at 10:10 in our Library time
• Story read by Mr Tilke on Thursday afternoon from 1:10 - 1:30
• Reading Minutes challenge for Homework - who will be the winning team and winning individual reader for the week?

Do you have any square pants?

For Y3 book day on 11th June, you could come as Spongebob Square Pants...if you have some square pants!



Come dressed as your favourite book character.

If you want to come with a few simple props, then that's fine.

If you want to make a fancy costume, that's fine too.

You could come as Charlie from the books of Roald Dahl...

You could come as Wally and dress in red and white striped clothes.

There will also be an individual and a team reading minutes challenge...details to come soon.

Egyptian Day

Thanks to Rachel for these photos...I was really pleased to see you learning and having fun.

Great costumes...well done for looking very authentic!

What material would the Egyptians have used to make their clothes?

How would they have made it?

Welcome!

As you may know, I have been waiting, usually patiently, for the birth of our third child.

Today at 3:30 am, Beatrice was born, weighing 3.23 kilograms.
Is this closest to 7 pounds, 7 pounds 2 ounces or 7 pounds and 7 ounces?

Thanks for your kind messages. I'm sure Miss Anne will bring her into the class for you to see in the next few weeks.
