Year 3 Peace
Science Week!
In Year 3 we really enjoyed Science week! We did lots of experiments – some of which worked better than others but that is all part of how to work scientifically. Our favourite activities have been making ice cream in a bag and having a chance to erupt the volcanoes we made before Christmas. The ice cream was tricky to make, we had to shake a bag with cream, sugar, vanilla and ice in it for a long time! The ice cream was very tasty though so it was worth it. The volcanoes looked amazing when they erupted and they made lots of mess in our classroom! It was a really fun first week back and we look forward to doing some more activities in the future.

Year 3 Self-Isolation Letter
In our first weeks back we focused on mindfulness. We used the story Ruby's Worry to explore this. We made worry monsters like the one Ruby has in the story. We also thought about our hopes and dreams for the future and made dreamcatchers for them.
Black History Week English lessons - We learnt about barriers people had faced because of their race and used hotseating to explore this.
Black History Week - We learnt about African drumming and had fun giving it a go. The drums were very loud!
We enjoyed showing Year 5 what we learnt about black history. We showed them our protest signs and shared some speeches with them.

This is a great way to explore shapes while interacting with nature, building spatial awareness and fine motor skills! For this easy activity, all you need are sticks and rubber bands.
First, create 2D shapes with your sticks. How many shapes can you make? What are they called? Next, make flat 3D shapes. Then, challenge yourself to make 3D models of each shape using rubber bands to connect your sticks. Finally, use your imagination to transform your models into something new (tiny houses, space ships, boats, etc.)!

We really enjoy Mr Mason's maths group!
In science we have been learning about the properties and uses of different materials. We grouped them according to their properties!
We visited our local library, where the librarian read a story to us and we checked out our own books!
Our topic this term is 'Africa'. We had a visit from a professional African drummer, Abbass. We played the dgembe, sang and danced to African music. It was an amazing experience!
Based on our topic, 'Living things and their habitats', Year 2 explored the school grounds to look for Micro-habitats
In Maths, we had a lot of fun telling time to Quater past, half past and Quarter to!
For the topic on 'Plastic Pollution', Year 2 researched the different oceans around the World!
Year 2 experimented and observed the effects of different drinks on teeth! They then wrote instructions on how to brush their teeth effectively.
Year 2 visited the local Synagogue as part of their learning on Judaism! They enjoyed the Challah bread and the grape juice.
