Science – Plants
We have been learning all about the process of pollination. We worked in groups to act out the process. Starting with a bee being attracted to the colourful petals. Next, the bee drinks the sweet nectar and pollen sticks to its legs. When the bee goes to a new flower, the pollen from the bee gets stuck to the sticky stigma.
Visitor from SCARF
Year 3 had a lovely time when a visitor came to deliver a workshop all about things that are harmful or helpful. We discussed staying healthy and the importance of family and friends. They even had a visit from Harold!
Sports day
We had a fantastic (and hot) day taking part in sports day. Everyone was so supportive and encouraging.
Creativity week!
Year 3 had an amazing week learning about the importance of reducing, re-using and recycling waste to help our environment.
We used scrap paper to make origami fortune tellers, dogs and jumping frogs. We all then made some beautiful roses!
We then used a broken book to make poems using the words on the page. We then painted some cardboard to make some frames for our poems.
We had a body percussion workshop. Where we learnt a rhythm for a “class motto”. We did fantastic and our final performances were brilliant.
Year 3 also made some beautiful collages of Meerkats and Gophers out of old magazines. We made a textured background by rubbing wax crayons against different surfaces outside.
We made some toilet tube art!
