Spring Term 2

Welcome to 3H!

 

In our class, you will find Mrs Hughes, Mrs Hardie and Mr Atkinson.

On a Tuesday afternoon and Thursday morning, Mr Sorrell comes in to teach us.

PE is on a Tuesday and a Thursday so please make sure you have the correct kit.

We also encourage Every Night A Reader in our class. Please encourage your child to read every night so they can move their stars closer to their reward.

Autumn Term 1 Learning

We are very busy learning this term. We will be developing our History skills whilst studying The Stone Age to The Iron Age and we will be investigating Rocks and Soils in Science. Our English learning is built around the books ‘The Stone Age Boy’ and ‘Stig of The Dump’. When we have read it carefully, we will be writing our own Stone Age Adventures.

Autumn Term 2 Learning

This half term our theme was “Our Location”.

In Geography, we learned about the human and physical features of our local area and we used maps and symbols to help us to navigate our way to Morecambe Promenade .

In Art, we studied the work of Chas Jacobs before our visit to Morecambe. Whilst in Morecambe, we did sketches of the buildings we could see and used them to create our own collage of Morecambe Promenade using our handmade coloured paper and our skill of layering. It is the biggest collage you have ever seen!

In English, we studied biographies. We started by looking at people we were interested in before moving on to learning about local legend Eric Morecambe.

Other areas of learning include Gymnastics, All about me in French and Light and dark in Science.

We had a very busy lead up to Chrsitmas indeed and we hope you enjoyed our performance of the Christmas Story and our moving Christmas Cards that we made in our DT topic of Levers and Linkages.

Spring Term 1 Learning

We are very busy this term as it is a short one and we have lots of exciting things to learn about.

Our main topic is “May the Force be with you”.  We have received a letter off a toy company asking us to test out some toys and even design some new ones.

In Science,  we have been learning about Forces and Magnets and have done a number of experiments to explore how things move and how magnets work.

In DT, we are expanding on our learning of Levers and Linkages last half term and have used our knowledge of Pivots to help us create our first toy for P&L Toys. We have made Peg Monsters  to link with our English text – The Thing in the Basement and can’t wait to make more toys later in the term. Why don’t you have a go at making a peg monster at home.
