Children’s Mental Health Week

Year 3 are completing a challenge each day to recognise Children’s Mental Health Week and then we will win a certificate. Today for Wellbeing Wednesday we focused on breathing and mindfulness. We watched a clip about what happens to our brains when we feel different emotions. The work being completed is lovely and I hope it helps with some strategies for looking after wellbeing. So far we have looked at positive affirmations, gratefulness and breathing. 


Magnets

This week year 3 have explored magnets in different ways. Today they have planned and carried out their own fair tests to explore which magnet was the strongest.


Safer Internet Day

Year 3 have talked about being safe online this week. In PSHE we did a lesson about how to stay safe when making friends online. Today we joined in with a live lesson from BBC about Artificial Intelliegence and the pros and cons. We have homework on Seesaw to discuss AI at home with our families. 


What makes the Earth angry?

We have been sharing our Creative Homework this morning and also watched our volcanoes erupt on Seesaw.

I am so impressed with all the children's hard work!

National Storytelling Week

Year 3 enjoyed a live Zoom session with Alim Kamala. The theme of this year is 'Soundtrack your story' and Alim showed us how he raps to tell a story. We found out that rap stands for rhythm and poetry. We then had a go at writing our own raps about having a superpower. The workshop was so much fun and we loved rapping along with Alim.
