We have had great fun in Year 3 designing and making our own castles.
The children worked on them for a number of weeks and were really pleased with the finished results. We think they look amazing! The children in Year 3 would like to say a huge THANK YOU to the PTA for their new wet playtime toys.
They love them! This week in computing we have been using our coding skills to create a story.
Using different codes to get our characters speaking, changing costumes and changing scenes. We are becoming scratch experts as the weeks go by! In Science this week we have enjoyed experimenting with magnets.
We looked at how magnetic forces can attract or repel. We experimented with paper clips to test how strong the magnets were. This week Year 3 had a gymnastics session which was lead by the Okehampton Flyers. It was a fantastic session and great to see the children showing off their rolls, tucks, straddles and incredible flexibility. We are truly grateful for another amazing opportunity provided to us by an outside source.
The children have been busy making castles.
They have drawn their ideas, collected their resources and this week they began constructing their designs. The finished castles will have battlements, towers, a flag and hopefully a working drawbridge. We can't wait to see how they look when they are finished - watch this space! This week year 3 had a cricket session with Niall from Devon Cricket which we thoroughly enjoyed. Despite the horrendous weather conditions we persevered and were able to practice our bowling, batting and fielding. It was a super session and a big thankyou to Niall and Devon Cricket!
This term in year 3, we have being learning about items we find in a classroom (Dans ma salle de classe). To help cement our knowledge, our lesson involved playing a well know game called Loto aka Bingo! There were various prizes up for grabs including new equipment and 3 golden tickets to be won. We hope you all have a lovely half term :)
