Autumn Term 2024
The children looked very festive in their jolly jumpers on Thursday and were excited to create their Christmas display for the dining hall
In DT, we have been investigating techniques for making simple pneumatic systems.
Year 3 were thrilled to be starting Forest School. They tracked different animals by investigating their poo (plasticine). Children also enjoyed climbing rope bridges and getting creative in the mud kitchen.
The children have been working hard on their coding skills in computing. They have written their own algorithms to create outcomes.
In science, year 3 have been identifying different skeleton types and how they are used for support, protection and movement. We have also sorted animal skeletons into groups, discussing patterns and similarities and differences.
In English this week, we started to look at Instructional Text.
The children worked in groups to identify the layout and grammar features of instructions and as a class we put together a success criteria for an effective set of instructions. Over the next few weeks, the children will put these elements together to produce their own set of instructions.
