Year 3 have been extremely busy and here is a taster of some of their learning over the last two and a bit weeks!
In English, the children have been enjoying the story, 'Seal Surfer' and writing has included creating animal riddles and dialogue between characters. In Maths, there has been lots of really good journaling and recently we have been calculating one more/less, ten more/less and one hundred more/less than a 3 digit number. In Art, we have been learning about William Morris and we have been practising different shading skills ready for some observational drawing of natural objects next week.
Other learning has included the three different passes in netball; creating presentations in Computing; practising greetings in French and the children are just finishing a Rainforest themed display to help with their understanding in Geography. :)

Y1 at Forest Schools, by Mrs Bailey
Date: 11th Sep 2023 @ 6:21pm
Year 1 had a fabulous day at Forest Schools on Friday. Our work, which was linked to our science topic, involved going on a senses hunt, identifying key features of different animals. We looked at animal skeletons and tried to identify what animals they were using their bone structure.
We spent time looking at one of the apple trees in our Forest Schools and will be taking photographs of this area throughout the school year to compare and contrast the changes across the seasons.
We had chance to develop our team work skills as we built grass castles and decorated them using the natural resources around us.
And of course the highlight of the day was using Dragon Sneezers and toasting marshmallows over our fire pit.
