Phase 2

As part of Year 3’s home learning, the children were asked to look at images of Stonehenge and recreate it using biscuits.

On Wednesday 20th a geologist came to visit Year 3 to tell us about the three different types of rocks and how they are formed.

What a lot of hero’s!

This Week:  World Book Week was celebrated in style with costumes, book discussions, reviews and online author interviews.

What a wonderful collection of robots we have received!

This week saw us conclude our play scripts based on Hogarth and the Iron Man’s first meeting. We used the computers to develop our Scratch coding games by adding instructions for our characters to interact.

Maths lessons moved on to Measure, with Distance, Mass and Volume units defined and explored. Our Art studies introduced Leonardo da Vinci. Pupils discovered who he was and what he was famous for during the Renaissance.

DT lessons were used to begin our marble run mazes, with a focus on accurate measuring and cutting.

Next Week:

Our summarising skills will be deployed in English as we imagine a correspondence between Hogarth and his Gran telling her everything that’s happened so far. We will be looking at the conventions of letter writing to produce our own letters.

Maths sessions will continue with how to convert units of measure. Science activities will focus on trouble-shooting circuits, while our DT session will introduce equipment safety and how to cut wood accurately. ICT lessons continue our game designs with backgrounds and levels created.

In Violin, we will be focusing on the D and G strings to help us play ‘Drunken Sailor’.

Week Commencing 23rd January 2023

We continued to explore the early chapters of The Iron Man.
