On Thursday 3rd March, it was World Book Day. We had so much fun celebrating all the amazing books we love!
We had some fantastic costumes on display in our class from aliens to superheroes, princesses to animals and so much more. It was fantastic to see everyone so excited about their costumes and show off in our catwalk/dance party with LKS2.
We had a surprise waiting for us in school that morning. At the front of the classroom, there was a bag full of presents and it was addressed to 3MS, that's us! We opened some of the presents and found out that they were books! They were books from an author called Zanib Mian all about a series called Planet Omar. We read the blurbs and thought it would be really exciting to look at these books a bit more today.
We read a few chapters of the first book, 'My Friend the Alien' and thought how funny it sounded. We decided to create our own aliens like the illustrations in the books. You can see us working hard on these in the pictures.
We were so lucky to have Miss Brookes from year 4 come and read us a story. It was called 'Aliens Love Underpants' and that might explain why all of our adults in school were dressed like aliens!
Next, we thought about how many exciting, informative and interesting books we have looked at this year in year 3. We discussed what we liked about different books and created some front covers and book reviews about these texts. We can't wait to see all of this amazing work up in our classroom on display.
After all the excitement of the day, it was time for one last story time before home time! We had a great day in year 3 and can't wait to explore stories even more this year.

This half term we will be finding out more all about the Romans!
On our launch day we spoke about what we already knew about the Romans and what we would like to find out more about.
We looked at some of the events that took place during the Roman times and we used some of our history skills to plot these onto a timeline. We used BCE and CE to order the dates.
At the end of the day, to celebrate all of our hard work, we had a Roman Banquet! We discovered that a lot of food was brought to Rome by boat from other countries. We learnt that some food we have today was considered a really big treat back then. We also found out that there were no supermarkets like we have today.
We tried goat's cheese, figs, dates, olives, pear and fruit cake. Lots of us tried new foods today that we haven't had before.

Today we began our 2D shape unit in maths. We discussed all the things we already know about 2D shapes. We could name loads of different shapes!
We spoke about the different angles in the angle family, obtuse angles, acute angles and right angles. We used our angle eaters to find different angles in the classroom and in our outside space too. Check out the pictures to see all the different right angles we could find. We found then on doors, books, benches and even the displays too!
We can't wait to continue exploring all things shape.

Our focus in science this half term is rocks, fossils and soil.
Today, we looked at different kinds of soil and how they differ. We discussed how water might pass through them and how different kinds of minibeasts live in them.
We looked closely at the particles of soil and documented our findings in our science books.
It was interesting to see how clay soil, chalk soil and sandy soil all look different and all help different living things.
Check out our scientists at work with their microscopes!

This week we have been looking at non-fiction texts. We have noticed lots of things about these kinds of texts. We have spotted contents pages, index pages and a glossary.
Today, we highlighted and discussed the meaning of key vocabulary in the text about Stone Age animals.
We used the text to help us work out the definition of the vocabulary.
Date: 4th Feb 2022 @ 1:25pm
Today we transformed into archaeologists!
To help with our learning about the Stone Age, we asked and answered questions. This week, we have been reading and making notes on different aspects of Stone Age life. We watched an interview with some archeologists and recreated this with our own amazing Stone Age facts.
We can't wait to show off all of our knowledge in our writing next week.

This half term we have been learning about the Stone Age in our CC lessons. We discovered how different dwellings were built and which materials and tools were used.
We have been designing our own Stone Age dwelling, which we will then build using our DT skills. First, we created a mood board to gather all of our ideas. Next, we thought of our initial ideas for our designs. Today, we investigated the different materials that we will be using in our construction. This helped us to think about how we can construct our final design next week.
Watch this space for our amazing creations coming soon!

We have had a very busy week in year 3 this week!
We started looking at fractions using shapes. We have been using the language of 'numerator', 'denominator' and 'equal parts'. Our challenge was to order the fractions and then to match the fraction to the decimal place. Check out how we did in the photos.
This half term we will be learning about The Stone Age in our connected curriculum lessons. For our launch, we explored Stone Henge through Google Earth and thought about who put it there and what it might have been used for. We used our comparison skills to spot the changes over time from the Stone Age to modern day. We even had a go at recreating Stone Henge out of biscuits!

We had a lovely afternoon yesterday researching how Christians make a difference in their local community. We then created our own posters to try and recruit volenteers for an 'up and coming' activity club. It was great fun!

We are so excited to be supporting Austria in 3RH during the 2020 Euros. Yesterday, we created our own fact files all about our team.
