This week we have continued thinking about ‘reciprocity’ and in particular, listening and speaking in pairs or a group.
This week, year 3 have been practising their oracy skills as we know that we can learn best from speaking and listening to each other.
Year 3 have been inspired by the art of both Frida Kahlo’s to create our self-portraits and Vincent van Gogh’s impressionist style to create beautiful seascapes as a backdrop to our poems.
This half-term we are working hard to develop our oracy skills; we have been thinking about oracy carefully and have decided that good listening skills are a prerequisite to good speaking skills.
