The Ancient Egyptian Museum Visit

 

This week, Year 3 enjoyed a fantastic Ancient Egyptian museum visit with Shropshire museums! The children spent the morning looking at a range of artefacts to find out about life in Ancient Egypt. In groups, they made inferences from the sources and used them to gather evidence. The children later enjoyed re-enacting the process of mummification as well as dressing up as Egyptians in the hierarchy of society. Finally, they made their own Egyptian amulets as a keepsake for the day.

The children showed fantastic knowledge on their over arching topic and excellent analysis skills of historical artefacts. Well done Year 3!

Year 3- EKO at Weston Park

We are so proud of our Year 3 children who were lucky enough to attend ‘EKO’ @ Weston park today. Our children were complimented for their beautiful manners, creative ideas and super listening skills- their behaviour was exemplary! In the morning, the children enjoyed a range of creative activities from building mini art galleries to observational sketches. We also explored the mazes and looked around the art gallery. The children loved discussing their favourite paintings, the colours and how they made them feel. After some lunch, we were able to enjoy a forest walk and ‘forest school experience’: den building, smore making and mud kitchens were just some of the wonderful activities involved. We are very grateful for a fantastic afternoon arranged by EKO@Weston Park.

We are programming experts!

Throughout the spring term, our Year 3 children have been learning all about programming. With the help of Mr Gerrie from Amazing ICT, the children started applying their knowledge on scratch, and learnt to sequence their commands. From bettering their keyboard skills, planning out their algorithms and implementing their programming, the children have made excellent progress against the national centre for computing curriculum objectives. Find below a some evidence of them successfully programming sprites to make sounds, complete motions, change backgrounds and change costumes. We are very proud of their programming progress!
