LKS2 Homelearning

It has been lovely to see some Romans linked home learning being brought into school this week.

I would love to celebrate the great work completed at home in our Community Crew events, so keep bringing your home learning in. Not only do you get rewarded with crew coins, but you may also get a ‘Dip in the Box’ prize.

We love to see all your ideas, but if you want some more, have a look at the suggestions on the second page of the document attached to the blog.

I look forward to seeing what you bring in!

Trip to Doncaster Museum (3F)

Year 3 had a fantastic trip to Doncaster Museum on Friday. In the morning, we explored the museum and enjoyed looking at the history of Doncaster. In the afternoon, we learnt more about The Celts and The romans in a mixture of workshop activities.

Wonderful Roman Workshop

We have had a great day today learning about the Romans in a variety of hands-on activities.

We have learnt about the armour a Roman soldier would wear and marched like soldiers following commands in Latin; we have written on wax tablets using stylae; we have made our own mosaic designs; we have been historians and held REAL roman artefacts that are nearly 2000 years old and we have worked together to construct Roman aqueducts.

Shout Out to George and Anwyn who completed the Aqueduct challenge all on their own in record time – I certainly couldn’t have done as well as them at building!

We have grappled and had to be resilient at times, but overall we have had a great day!

Many thanks to Claire from Want2be Workshops for making a very memorable day for us all.

Roman workshop (3F)

Today, we enjoyed a variety of Roman workshops. The children enjoyed investigating Roman artefacts, etching onto wax tablets, marching and dressing up.

Family learning 🏛️🛡️🎨

Tomorrow is LKS2 family learning for year 3 and 4 which will start at 1:30 and finish at around 3. Family members are to sign in at the office and will join the children in completing different activities set up across the four classrooms. Also if you could bring in any spare cardboard to use to make Roman shields, that would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Year 3&4 team

Year 3 Hockey

Year 3 had so much fun this morning learning how to correctly hold a hockey stick and practice controlling the ball. What a great way to spend the morning in the sun!

Roman Quest Day

It’s hard work being a Roman or a Briton!

Year 3 worked together in their crews to learn about the ancient Romans, to solve problems and crack codes. We worked together sharing ideas, researching and problem solving in order to open a treasure chest.

What is the guiding question?

3GS have enjoyed colouring mosaics to discover our new guiding question: Coming to Doncaster. Why then? Why now?
