Monday afternoon we watched England in the Men’s football world cup and will be playing in our own world cup next Wednesday so make sure PE kits are on please. The Christmas Fayre is coming soon along with a few more exciting events for Year 3 so watch this space!

    This week, it was extremely exciting to have parents in for our Science workshop. Although the egg shells that had been immersed in different liquids for a week were rather disgusting, they gave the children an insight into how liquids can affect their teeth- we will look at the results further to make our final conclusions. We have also learned about different climates in Africa, linking to our topic. Obviously, the resilience shown by the children completing tests was fantastic and we look forward to sharing results with you in a few weeks. Christmas also arrived... the first Christmas tree is in our entrance hall, sprinkled with snow and presents beneath... exciting things to come!

Linking with this, in topic, we have learned about the different biomes in Africa. We have revised counting in Spanish to 31 and will learn when our birthday is. Our performance is taking shape with the songs (Which can be found on the website) being rehearsed and the play practiced.

    Year 3 had a wonderful Science afternoon. The parent workshop was all about the size of a shadow relative to the distance an object is from a light source. The parents had a great time in the dark measuring the little rabbit’s shadow. Thanks so much for their support it means a lot.

    Year three have had a great week in English and have made Bumble Bees from Plastic bottles. Thanks to everyone for their donations. They have then written instructions for someone else to make a bee too! They have used fronted adverbs of time and imperative verbs to write the instructions. Ask them to explain what it all means!

    Next week is our Science workshop on Light so we are really looking forward to seeing some parents. Thanks again for your continued support of the Year 3 children through reading with them, helping with times tables and spellings.
