We marked Number Day with a series of engaging activities, including number investigations, times table games, and challenging number games that tested addition and subtraction skills.
Year 3 gets sporty
This week, we have been working on our new PE unit, badminton. We have been familiarising ourselves with the shuttle, developing our overhead throwing skills, tracking, and catching the shuttle. Here are some photos from our lesson.
Welcome Back Year 3!
We’ve had an absolutely fantastic week returning to school, and we’re eager to share the exciting things happening in our English lessons!
We are currently reading ‘Cloud Tea Monkeys,’ a book that has cross-curricular links to our science lessons. We have been enjoying familiarising ourselves with the text. Here are some photos of us role-playing parts of the story.
Autumn Term
Last day of Autumn Term!
We have had wonderful day which started off with an assembly saying goodbye to Mrs Ruffell and Mrs McSweeney.
After playtime we played a few games and then we opened our KrisKringle gifts. We had fun guessing who the gift was from.
Thank you for the generous gifts. Wishing you a restful Christmas break!
Festive Fun!
On Friday, we wore our Christmas jumpers and enjoyed a delightful Christmas dinner. The afternoon was filled with engaging Christmas crafts and lively Christmas games.
In maths, we focused on sharing in division. We used counters to help us visualise the groups. Here are some snapshots from our lessons.
In Design and Technology, we successfully completed our static electricity toys. We carefully designed our games, keeping the design brief in mind, and we’re proud of the way it turned out!
In science, we conducted an experiment testing the permeability of various soils, and we thoroughly enjoyed this activity!
Year 3
This week has been bustling with exciting experiments in Year 3! In science we have been learning about rocks and soils. We explored various chocolate experiments to illustrate different rock formations.
In DT we have been experimenting with static electricity. Here are some photos of our experiments.
Year 3 Celebrates Children in Need
We celebrated Children in Need by wearing spots and stripes. Here are some photos of our celebration.
On Multiplication Day, we played games to help us learn our times tables. Our favorite game was Around the Clock Multiplication. Each child filled in a section of the clock with the times tables.
Year 3 Geographers
This week in geography, we embarked on our new unit: ‘ Uk, Towns, Cities and Features.’ We used maps and atlases to identify physical geography features. We then created detailed maps for each county, incorporating both its human and physical features.
Marvellous Magnets
In science, we are studying forces and magnets, we had a lot of fun experimenting with the strength of different magnets. We tested the magnet by looking at how many paperclips it could hold.
Year 3 Class Assembly
This week in Year 3, we’ve been busy preparing for our class assembly. As the assembly unfolded, we eagerly shared our recent, fantastic trip experiences and proudly showcased the incredible things we’ve been learning in class.
