Henry Moore inspired art

I am really impressed with our art work based on World War 2 artist Henry Moore. Some of their work was beautiful really considering tone and perspective in their drawings. Well done year 3.


Javelin

We had different throwing stations in athletics today. We really enjoyed practising the correct technique for javelin. Peyton was our Olympian in the class. Well done!


Reading Ambassadors Display

Tameside Libraries set our Reading Ambassadors a task to create a genre display of books to persuade children to read a certain text type. They chose a fantasy theme which is books about magic, legendary creatures and faraway lands. The children put the display together themselves in the KS2 library and I think this will definitely encourage children to read these books.

Well done Ambassadors!


Rounders

Year 3 are really developing their rounders skills. We are really enjoying learning the game.


WW2 Day part II

This afternoon we practised hiding in our air raid shelters when we heard the siren. We just had enough time to put on our gas masks- some of us had to hold our breath. Then we ate our cake and wrote postcards about the day.

Well done for a super day Year 3!


Poor man's cake

Year 3 have made some poor man's cake today which is a chocolate cake without eggs due to rationing.

They can't wait to eat it this afternoon ;)


World War Two Experience Day

Year 3 have had a wonderful morning. They all look marvellous! They have completed a carousel of activities including: making ID labels, creating WW2 art pieces, packing an evacuee's suitcase, making propaganda posters, creating a VE party menu, designing a gas mask, making a ration book and baking a poor man's cake. 


Self portraits

As part of our Art Week today we started by doing self portraits using mirrors to carefully look at the features of our faces. Can you tell who these are?
