Hook week

During hook week, we learned all about The Arctic and the animals that live there. Y3 created some beautiful canvas paintings that imitate the front cover of our core text, The Last Bear.

Year 3 PE

This morning, year 3 had continued with their athletics and today, they were practicing their long jumps. They started off with Simon says to test their reflexes until the last one standing, then in pairs, they jumped as far as they could before they placed a cone on where they jumped. Year 4 then finished with a different version of red light, green light where they had to jump their way to the finish line. They left the session with big smiles on their faces and superstars all around. Super proud of you year 3 this week!

Year 3 on the hunt for the guiding question!

On the first day back after Christmas, our challenge was to solve cryptic clues to reveal our expedition title and guiding question.

We did really well, working together in teams . It wasn’t easy, but we stuck at it and in the end, we worked out that our new expedition is:

There is no Planet B – Why should we protect our wonderful world?

Can’t wait to start learning!

Year 3 PE

Year 3 had discovered what athletics is all about today. They discussed the meaning of quick reactions and reflexes. They were then tested on their reaction skills with a game to see who could get the cone the fastest to get points. The children then were split into groups of 3 so their running skills could be worked on. One child was the coach, one was timing the runner, and the last running, to which they all took turns. I saw great teamwork being displayed and was super impressed by the enthusiasm shown this morning!

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas and a happy new year to all of Y3. Thank you for all your hard work over the last two terms. Enjoy a well earned rest, and we look forward to seeing you again in the new year.

LKS2 Digital Map Final Product

Here is a link to the digital map we have produced to reflect our community. It contains links to biographies and fact splats written by the children and about where some people in our community come from and what the Romans did for Doncaster.

We are hoping to have a physical sign positioned at the entrance to school soon.
