Archaeological excavation!

Year 3 were lucky enough to be archaeologists for the afternoon! The weather was kind to us and we deployed a range of tools to take turns digging and sifting in the hopes of finding some beaker pottery. With our findings we will use it to write a response letter to an "ex-pupil" who informed us of the rumours of the beaker pottery!

Stone Age Stewed Fruit

Year 3 have been studying instruction texts and as part of the process we made some Stone Age stewed fruit using a selection of fruits, hazelnut and honey as an added sweetener. The process not only allowed the children to get stuck in practically but also informed their own writing of instructions following the making of the fruit stew.

Gymnastics 🤸🏿‍♀️🤸🏿‍♀️🤸🏿‍♀️🤸🏿‍♀️

Keeping (and staying!) active is so important in everyone's lives and over the last six months, we have all taken a hit - but Year 3 returned to school, resilient in every way and have approached Gymnastics lessons with enthusiasm and perseverence. Last week we learned how to be a gymnast - walking like a gymnast and learning the names of some gymnastic postitions. The children were amazing in their Gymnast / Coach roles and by the end of the session could tuck, pike, dish, arch and front and back support well. This week, we have been looking at balancing and using our hands and feet in different ways,and using some simple equipment to build our balances Thank you to Positive PE for their amazing support in their training last year to help us make our PE teaching better. 👏
