Oracy
Posted: Feb 1, 2025 by: H Christie (hfountain) on: Year 3 Class Blog
We've had a great week in Year 3 and have been trying out something a bit different with some new oracy activities - the children are working on their speaking and listening and thinking about what skills and behaviours they need to practise for this. In history, we were learning about how bronze impacted prehistoric Britain, with the children taking on special roles within their groups: readers, summarisers and reporters. It was tricky at first but they had a good try! Then in maths, we played Ladders, where each child shared their thoughts about an odd shape out, considering their language choices carefully to develop a thorough discussion, including, 'I agree with you but...' and 'I did think this but now I have changed my mind because...' The children sounded really grown up and use lots of great mathematical vocabulary!
