Year Three and Four HIghlights

This week in Year 3 has been very busy! In Science, we began exploring magnets and reviewing the importance of questioning in scientific inquiry. Mrs Bray from the museum learning team visited us with authentic toys from the Victorian era. We had lots of questions and had a lot of class discussions about their significance. In RE, we used artefacts to explore rites of passage. We enjoyed handling different artefacts and trying on different pieces of special clothing – including Mrs. Wardle’s wedding veil!

It has been a very creative week in Year 4. The children have created excellent models of Egyptian architecture, using modelling clay, such as pyramids and the Sphinx. In English, the children have innovated the text map letting their imaginations run wild. In Maths, the children have learnt to use formal written methods to multiply and divide with the aids of manipulatives to help. Speaking of Maths, Carver is this week’s winners of Battle of the Bands. Well done to all who
