Natural History Museum trip

Today we visited the Natural History Museum as part of our Science topic- Fossils. We had lots of fun travelling to the museum and looking at different types of fossils whilst we were there, that related to our learning. What a perfect way to end our first half-term in Year 3!

Art in year 3

Today in Art, we carefully planned how we were going to make our own Lion Man out of clay. First, we recapped what we did in our previous lesson where we learned facts about the Lion Man and did rough sketches of him. Then, we planned out what shapes and sizes we’d need for each part of our sculpture before putting our plan to action and making the Lion Man! We were very proud of our sculptures.

P4C

This week for our P4C (Philosophy for Children) session, we watched a video from the website The Literacy Shed. We then thought of our own questions we would like to ask about the video before sharing the questions with the rest of the class. As a group, we then voted for which question we would like to explore. After choosing a question, we spent the afternoon exploring answers to the question we had voted for!

Au revoir!

Bonjour! This week in French we have been learning how to say goodbye. We explored the new vocabulary as a class and then went off into smaller groups to create our own fun role plays, whilst making sure we included saying goodbye in French in these role plays. We then presented our role plays back to the class- below are a few pictures of us presenting our role plays to the class!
