3SK Gardening
This week we went out into our school garden area - and what a task it was! Some of us cleared and tidied the over-grown beds, some of us planted out seedlings whilst others potted up new seeds.
Investigating Romans
.
Year 3 have had lots of fun comparing Romans and Celts.
Year 3 Roman Shields
We have been busy designing Roman Shields. Roman soldiers designed theirs to reflect their power and status. We have designed ours to show what is important to us. We then re-enacted the 'tortoise' or 'turtle' formation to show how the soldiers shielded themselves in battle. We had great…
3SK PE
In our PE sessions this half term we are working on our throwing and fielding skills. We really enjoyed practising bowling and catching in the sunshine!
Easter 'egg-stravaganza'
3PS have had a 'smashing' time creating some 'egg-cellent' designs for our Easter competition. There were some very creative designs from 'egg sheeran' to our entire class represented in egg form. It was a difficult decision to choose our winners! Happy Easter!
Year 3 Church Visit
Year 3 were invited to Springfield Methodist Church to learn about the events of Easter week.
The 'Easter Cracked' sessions included making palm wreaths, feet washing, re-enacting the Last Supper and making bread.

3SK - Fossil Frenzy!
This week our work on Rocks and Soils led us to finding out more about fossils. We didn't realise there were so many different types of fossils!
Year 3 Science Trip
On Wednesday 15th March we visited Blackpool Tower to watch a science show called 'Whoops we blew up the lab!'
Wackey Jackie and her Fun Science Lab team showed us lots of exciting experiments using items from around the house.
3SK Testing Rocks
This week we have been testing different rocks. We wanted to know whether different rocks would float or sink.
3SK - Rocks! Rocks! Rocks!
Our new topic is all about rocks. We have been observing the differences in different rocks and deciding which type of rock they are. Can you name any rocks?
3SK Iron Man Models
We have designed and made models of the Iron Man with a moving part in our Design and technology lessons.
Our models either used a slider mechanism to make his eyes change colour or a linkage mechanism to make both of his arms move.
Year 3 Iron Man Art
We worked together to make the different body parts of the Iron Man using junk modelling and silver paper, then we joined them together. We really enjoyed making him!
We also created our own Iron Man collages.
