A new award this week was to our two vocab ninjas - well done everyone.


Banish Boring Sentences

Today we banished boring sentences! We pretented to be teachers and corrected and improved boring sentences by adding exciting adjective and fronted adverbials. 


Making shadows

We had lots of fun today making and investigating shadows. We learnt that a shadow is formed when an opaque object blocks the light falling on it. We also noticed that the size of the shadow changed depending how close the object was to the light source. 


Fronted Adverbials Hunt

Today, we have been learning about fronted adverbials. We read sentences and had to decide if they had fronted adverbials or not. We also sorted fronted adverbials into three groups; manner, place and time. Then we used fronted adverbials in our own sentences. 


Space Week in Year 3

To celebrate Space Week Year 3 visited an inflatble planetarium. We learned about the planets in our solar system and found out about Mars Rover and its mission to Mars. We also discussed how the moon seems to change its shape over time. We learnt about the phases of the Moon and conducted our own experiment to see how the light affects the shape of the moon as we see it travels around the Earth. We used a torch to represent the sun, a small ball to represent the moon and we had one person in the middle to represent the Earth.
