Geography in Year 3

This week, we have been considering the ‘push’ and ‘pull’ factors that influence people moving to Doncaster.

We now know that push factors, are what force people to leave their homes and are usually negative reasons. On the other hand, pull factors are the positive things that encourage people to come to Doncaster.

Who would have thought that Doncaster have thought that Doncaster has just been voted the number ONE city that people are wanting to move to. I wonder if you know the reason why?

Anti-Bullying Week

We started off anti-bullying week by celebrating Odd Sock day. For this we did a sponsored walk on the playground and we then designed our own odd socks by printing repeating patterns. We explored turn taking activities within our play and we demonstrated kindness by making flowers and delivering them to teachers around school; brightening up their day.

Singing in Sandall park- Sunday 7th December 9:45-10:30

I cannot believe 40 children have already signed up to represent Plover singing in Sandall park. If anyone else would like to join us, you have until Thursday 20th November to return your letter. We will start practising on Friday 21st November.

Children will need to be at Sandall Park at 9:45 to meet before our set at 10am. I cannot wait for us to spread some Christmas cheer and I hope lots of parents and carers can come to support us.

Celebrating Bonfire Night

We have had fun celebrating Bonfire day/night this week whilst learning about safety. The children have watched a firework display, made edible sparklers for afternoon snack, drawing fireworks using different materials whilst exercising our gross and fine motor skills and lots of firework and sparkler crafting. Whilst doing these activities we have discussed different colour names and the sounds that fireworks make.

World Mental Health Day

We have celebrated World Mental Health Day completing some of our favourite activities. The children wore yellow and the activities we have explored help us to regulate ourselves and keep us calm such as blowing bubbles, calm breathing, colouring, jigsaws, arts and crafts and exercising our bodies.

3G Super Sculptors

Over the last few weeks, we have been developing our sculpting skills.

We are using different techniques to create a coil pot in the style of a Roman oil lamp. It is taking a lot of patience and resilience – especially with how quickly the clay dries out!

I can’t wait to see how they turn out!
