Year 3 Miss Coupe & Miss McKay
The Year 3 children read the book 'The Day the Crayons Quit.' by Oliver Jeffers. They adapted the story to 'The Day the Chairs Quit.' They had to do their work on the floor or find somewhere to write as they didn't have any chairs to sit on! The Year 3 children wanted to write a letter of apology to persuade them to come back!
Year 3 Food DT
The Year 3 children designed and created their own soup and stews.
Class 1 made a chunky vegetable soup and a smooth soup.
Class 2 made a Mediterranean stew. They all tried and gave their opinion as to which one they preferred.
'The Escape Room'
Year 3 had fun and lots of challenges trying to unlock the boxes. They had to solve different riddles and clues using their maths skills.
Year 3 went outside to take photographs of plants around the school. This was inspired by Joseph Banks the Botanist. This was part of their science topic about plants.
Year 3 Egyptian Day
Year 3 had a marvellous day learning about the Ancient Egyptians. They all took part in activities teaching them how they used to live.
Year 3 Science
The children investigated how far they could throw a javelin using their muscles. Whose javelin went the furthest?
Year 3 Maths
Year 3 used their addition skills to solve multi step problems. They used a McDonald's menu to work out different costs of food.
They also entered the Willy Wonka chocolate shop and used their subtraction skills to work out problems when buying bars of chocolate.
Year 3 went to Creswell Crags to deep their knowledge of the Stone Age Paleolithic Period.
We visited a paleolithic cave, made Stone Age art and took part in a Stone Age hunt. We had bison for dinner. Lots of children thought it would be fun to live during the Stone Age times!
