Year 3 PE

Year 3 PE will be on Tuesday during the remainder of the Autumn Term.

However, sometimes timetables will change for special events and activities. Please can we therefore advise that PE kits are brought to school on a Monday morning and brought home on a Friday evening.

Please remember PE will be outside wherever possible so please send your child with a warm tracksuit and trainers.

Please ask your child’s teacher if you have any additional questions.

 

4G Plover Praise

A quick catch up on the children who have been bringing home the Plover praise postcards over the last couple of days!
Well done for demonstrating good aspects of the Plover Pledge.

We are scientists

We have been having great fun being scientists in 4G. For the last few lessons, we have been conducting our own experiments about how plants live. Last week we started looking a the best conditions cress seeds need to grow in. Today we have been setting up tests into how water is transported around plants (celery) and whether temperature will make a difference.

Can’t  wait to see the results!

PE Days

4L PE days are on Wednesday and Thursday afternoons. The sessions will take place outside and we ask that children wear full PE kit for these sessions. PE kit must be brought into school and changed into for the session and not worn instead of uniform.

Roman Workshop

On Friday we were really fortunate to have Clare come and visit us and deliver the Roman Workshop to us. The children had a lot of hands on experiences and were really immersed in the life of a Roman soldier.

4G Roman Workshop

We had a great time learning about life in Roman times today! It was a really  hands-on workshop with Claire from Want2be workshops.

We added to our knowledge of the Romans, leant how to march like Roman soldiers and even learnt some Latin!

Writing out our shopping list on a wax tablet proved to be much more challenging than using a pencil and paper, but creating our own mosaics was very successful.

 

 

 

Fabulous Film Night

Year 3/4 thoroughly enjoyed this evening’s film night.

We watched ‘Onward’, whilst we ate pizza, sweets and a bun and drank tasty chocolate milkshake.

Sadly there are no photos as the room was so dark and the staff were so busy running round like Deliveroo drivers, ensuring everyone got fed!

Thanks to the support of film night, we have  raised over £50 for our Phase so thank you very much.

 

 

Roman Day

WOW!! What a superb Roman Day we had today!

We started the day exploring Roman armour, then we held shields and had a practice of a real Roman Solider drill! It was great fun to do ‘the tortoise’! We then had a go at playing ‘knucklebones’ which was really popular with all the children! After a break, we tried our hand at Roman writing in beeswax with a stylus. We ended our day with mosaics making and handling real life Roman artefacts!

Claire was fantastic and a fountain of knowledge! All our children loved the day! Thank you parents/carers for your payments to make today happen and to Miss Lotysz for her time booking the day!

Stay tuned for photos tomorrow!

 

PLEASE NOTE

Sadly, Doncaster Rovers coaching on a Friday afternoon has had to be postponed. Look out for an announcement about when this will happen in the new year!

Tuesday in 3T

Today has been a great day in 3T.

In Maths, we have been learning to read bar charts and their scales. In English, we have been learning about non chronological reports. In Expedition, we have been learning about the parts of a plant.

Behaviour has been super today and the children have worked hard in their groups!

Year 3 PE

Please note that Y3 will be working with Doncaster Rovers on a Friday afternoon as part of their PE curriculum.

They will need warm tracksuit bottoms and a warm jumper or hoody. They will also need trainers (not boots). No other items/equipment are required for the session. This session will be outdoors unless the weather is too bad to let the session go ahead outdoors.

Please ask if you have any questions.
