Cave painting, by Miss Wainwright

Date: 26th Sep 2022 @ 6:54pm

In our Art and Design lessons we have learnt about the cave paintings which were discovered in Lascaux.

We observed the shapes, patterns, and objects which Early Man recorded and predicted what they may have used to create their artworks.

We went into the school grounds and looked for materials with which we could create our own paintbrushes and used these to create our own cave paintings.

We put the skills necessary for survival in the Stone Age in order according to which we thought was the most important. We discussed this order with our partner and class to provide explanations for our choices. Great historical reasoning Year 3!

The Planet in a Pickle Jar, by Miss Wainwright

Date: 15th Sep 2022 @ 4:22pm

We read the beautiful book The Planet in a Pickle Jar by Martin Stanev about an adventurous Grandma who preserves precious items and memories for her grandchildren in the future. We wrote imaginative poems as a list of ingredients for pickle jars in the book using nouns and abstract nouns. We created our own pickle jars to keep our own magical moments safe. What wonderful creativity you have shown Year 3!

Using base 10 to make 2 digit numbers, by Miss Wainwright

We made 2 digit numbers using base 10 and wrote sentences to describe the numbers. This will help us as we move on to using base 10 and place value counters to support our learning of 3 digits numbers. We love practical Maths learning!
