Wow! What a busy first full week we’ve had in year 3!
In our English sessions, we used role-play to plan a battle description between some children and a cave bear (based on our book –‘Stone Age Boy’). We focussed on including as many exciting compound sentences when we wrote it up.
During our nature reserve time, we continued our Stone Age topic through searching for appropriate rocks in order to make spear-heads. We had a great time.
Finally, in our gymnastics sessions, we worked hard on learning how to perform a shoulder stand.
What a wonderful first full week in Year 4. It has been so busy starting new topics, new routines and using new resources!
We have discussed democracy this week in assemblies and the children showed this through their voting of class mates for the roes of Meet and Greet, Eco monitors, Nature Reserve Rangers, School Councilors and Mindfulness monitors
The sun shone for us on Monday, for our first outdoor PE session where we played worked on our tennis skills.
In Science , we were bussing - literally, for we had investigated circuits and made light bulbs- light,and then them brighter. We made and buzzers - buzz, and then buzz louder!
In PSHE, we have been looking at our new topic on Me and My Relationships. We had fun trying to work as Collabadons!
We are looking forward to next week and our first visit to the nature reserve. Maybe this weekend you could go for a walk, and see if you can identify the different trees around you.
This week we looked at the book Mr Wolf's Pancakes. We drew Mr wolf and some of the other characters from the story. Mr Wolf was interviewed by the children and they asked him questions about his shady behaviour! The children made pancakes and tasted them in the classroom, they were delicious! We've had a really lovely whole first week.
We've only been back for two days, but what a busy few days we've had!
