Hot seating

We used our inference skills today to get into character with our hot seating skills. We had to pretend to be the Stone Age boy or Om the Stone Age girl and answer questions as our character. Great oracy today Year 3!


Author workshop

Today year 3 joined an online workshop with author Aoife Dooley who has written the graphic novels called 'Squid squad'. We joined in with a drawing lesson creating some of the sea creature characters from Aoife's book. We then listened to Aoife talk about what it is like to be an author and where her ideas come from.


Stars in year 3

Well done to our stars this week who won awards in assembly. Well done to the whole class who won an award for their enthusiasm during our workshop yesterday.


Hunter gatherers

Check out our awesome hunting skills. We had to try and kill a cave bear, a woolly mammoth or a sabre tooth rider. Niki managed to kill all 3 with only three spears!


Stone Age Workshop

We have had so much during our workshop today. We have learned so many new facts about what life was like during the Stone Age. We had a close inspection of some real artefacts including a real woolly mammoth's tusk, hair and lots of real flint. We had a go at being hunter gatherers practising our hunting skills using spears. We then got to meet a wooly rhino in our classroom. Please ask the children what they enjoyed the most and I am sure that they will have lots to share.

Please look through our terrific photos.


Stone Age timeline

Year 3 worked collaboratively to research and present a poster about different periods of time of the Stone Age. We found out about the Palaeolithic, Mesolithic, Neolithic and Bronze Age times. After they made their time line posters they presented them to the class using their oracy skills. 


Firework safety

Today we have discussed the firework code and how to enjoy Bonfire Night safely. The children have designed colourful posters with super safety tips.
