Term 2

Year 3 are continuing this term with a debate answering our enquiry question of 'What can we learn from Stone Age, Bronze Age, Iron Age?' Alongside this, we will be creating our very own cave art. After that, we will be jumping into our second enquiry, answering our enquiry question- 'How do we live a healthy life?'

Within this enquiry, we will be scientists exploring the food groups and the importance of understanding the nutrition food brings to the body. We will also be engineers and make a nutrious meal incorporating all of the food groups.

We will continue reading our book 'Georges marvellous medicine' and use this to introduce targets into our writing to make it engaging for our readers.

Being Scientists - How can we live a healthy lifestyle? Engage

Today we immersed ourselves into our new enquiry 'How can we live a healthy lifestyle?' 

We enjoyed thinking about healthy living and how we can be healthy in our mind, body and food. 

We tried lots of different fruits and we exercised our bodies.

We then practised mindfulness through breathing activities, colouring and scanning our bodies. 

Being Artists - Cave Paintings

Today in 3JW, we transformed our classroom into a Stone Age Cave.

We worked positively in our talk partners to create our own cave paintings using different coloured paints. 

Term 1

Year 3 are kick starting the year with an incredible enquiry into the lives of people living in the Stone Age to the Iron Age. We will be using the books 'The Stone Age Boy' to help us introduce targets into our writing to make it engaging for our readers. 

In order to answer our enquiry question of 'What can we learn from Stone Age, Bronze Age, Iron Age?', we will be explore what life was like for people living throughout these years to compare what was the same and what changed.

Being Orators - Class swap

This afternoon, we swapped with 6CW to practise and rehearse our sentences in preparation for the Oracy Open Classroom on Tuesday. We really enjoyed listening to the Year 6s and engaging with their Term 1 learning, while also sharing our own Iron Age Boy narratives.

We talked about the parts of our writing we were most proud of, the challenges we faced, and what we’re most looking forward to learning next term.

Being Theologians - Trip to St Stephen's Church

This morning, we had a fantastic trip to St Stephen's Church. We celebrated harvest festival before exploring the key features of a church. We really enjoyed our time here.

Celebrating World Poetry Day 2025! 

Today as a school, we celebrated World Poetry Day!

In 3JW, we enjoyed the day by reading and exploring different 'nonsense' poems - these made us laugh! 

We created our own poems with the title "I hear with my little ear..." where we spent some time in silence listening to all of the different sounds around us in our classroom. We then used this to create our poems! 

Special well done to Rhys and Ella who confidently performed these in our afternoon assembly.

We also explored a poem called 'Puddle'. We rehearsed this poem with actions and practised it in our houses to eventually perform to the class before lunchtime.

Being Historians - Trip to Cheddar Gorge!

Today, we had a fantastic trip to Cheddar Gorge. As part of our trip, we got to explore both incredible caves, take a trip through pre-history and even met a ‘Stone Age’ person called Arht who showed us how the Stone Age people lived, hunted and started fires!

Being Historians - Engage

To kick start our learning about our new enquiry- what can we learn from how the stone, bronze and iron ages lived? we tried out three stone age activities. We learnt how to weave using a small loom and paper strips, went outside into the secret forest and made shelters out of natural materials and handled flint whilst guessing what they could have been used for during the stone, bronze and iron ages. We can't wait to find out more about this time period and how these people used to live!
