Our school promotes Casey the Caterpillar writing programme. It teaches a young learner letter shapes that are found in nature like a long stick or a nut. To help children clarify their understandings about some letter shapes in Room 3
we use as many real objects as possible to engage their imagination.
We are a Y3-4 class who share our learning by being confident, creative, collaborative, respectful, responsible and resilient.

Beach Life
With such hot weather having a cold water play with some real seaweed and shells is a must in room 3. It helped students to talk about their own experiences as well as to cool off before learning class routines.
