- Thursday 1st June – PTA Quiz
- Friday 16th June – Rescheduled Dream Come True Trip
PARENT GUEST SPEAKERS NEEDED
We have begun our new unit where the children will be inquiring into how people collaborate towards a common goal. The children will be learning about different workplaces and the roles that people have within their workplace.
If you think you could spare some time over the next month to come in and talk to Y3 about your workplace and the role you have please get in touch with your child’s class teacher.
If your child has Deli Fresh for lunch, please talk to them about their food choices as we have noticed a lot of children are reluctant to finish their lunch.
Please remember that we have a no nut policy at BHS due to some children having severe allergies. This includes peanut butter sandwiches and nuts in cookies or cakes.
Dream Come True Education Park
We have been able to reschedule the trip to Friday 16th June. An e-mail has been sent out to all Y3 parents.

People collaborate towards a common goal
Lines of Inquiry
- Different workplaces and the roles people have (responsibility)
- Shared goals in group situations (connection)
- Systems that support collaboration in the workplace (responsibility)
This week the children continued to inquire into ‘working in a group’, they completed lots of different activities where they needed to collaborate, cooperate and communicate with each other. The children have enjoyed creating some collaborative artwork to make some beautiful displays in the Y3 classrooms.
Next week the children will continue to look at the different skills needed for collaboration. They will also start to look at the different skills needed for different jobs.
Addition and Subtraction are related and are used to solve problems
The children have been putting their learning with money into practise. They were given a McDonald’s menu and had to choose items totalling no more than $50. The children had to work out the change they would get. They were then challenged by adding their total and their partners together. They used their addition and subtraction jump strategy to help them solve these problems.
Next week the children will continue to use their addition and subtraction strategies with money. They will also have the opportunity to visit Y3’s own ‘shop’ which has been set up in the shared area, the children will get a hands on experience of buying items with the right amount of money and getting the correct change.
New tasks have been set in relation to time. Please encourage your child to log on and complete tasks as part of their home learning.
This week the children have been inquiring into the features of expositions and becoming familiar with the features of a non-fiction text. The classes have looked at several expositions as a whole class and discussed the features they have noticed.
