SUMMER TERM 6 WEEK 7

13th July 2020

Hi Rabbit Class!

So this is the final full week of Year 3

Hope you are all well and still willing to do a little bit more work.

 

Only seven days to end of term! Motivation is waning for some, but there are children who seem to be on a final sprint really producing fantastic work. This week, try on your own without any adult help, to produce a wow piece. If you do this, you can prove to yourself how much you have learned this year. Send me a photo if you’d like to share it or just file it in your Anthology for September.

 

Here are your tasks for this week 13/7/20
