In Year 3, PE will be on a Monday afternoon and XP Outdoors will take place on a Wednesday. Below is a list of the required kit for each day.
What a pleasure it was for the children in Year 3 today as they were able to listen to our special guest Mick from Doncaster’s Victoria Cross Trust, who was kind enough to come in and talk to the children all about the Second World War.
We were able to learn about a local hero who received the Victoria Cross as well as experience some of the equipment and uniforms used by soldiers during the war.
Jude completed his budget list for survival during the war as part of his maths homework. He tallied up the total of each item within his budget! Well done Jude!
Today we have looked at the front cover of our new class text, ‘The Lion and the Unicorn.’ We noticed some interesting things about the character and made predictions about what we thought might happen in the story.
We later looked at some of the countries involved in the Second World War and tried to locate them on a map!
This morning, we spent time with our partners looking through some of the different expedition books we have in class.
Just want to say a big thank you to sculpture club. They were fab at listening and learning about the different paper sculpture techniques this week! Check out what they have done below. A few more techniques to show them next week, but they have been set a challenge to think about what they’d like to start to make. Ensuring they apply some of these techniques to create something 3D!
Today, the children created their own Blitz artwork. We used watercolours to create the background before placing the paper silhouette of the city skyline over the top!
