Week beginning 2/05/16


We've been enjoying the sunshine in Year 3 this week and it's help charge lots of fantastic learning...

Maths

We have been enjoying lots of practical work in our maths lessons this week, as we start a new unit on measurement. We have been ordering and measuring amounts of capacity and making a vessel that we estimated to hold 1 litre. Also, we have been measuring accurately using mm and creating bar charts about the different lengths of chocolate buttons. 





Science

In science, we have been checking up on our on-going experiments and recording our observations. We have altered geraniums to see how well they grow if we take away the important factors needed for a healthy plant. Some of the results have been very surprising so far. Watch this space for the full results soon! This week we have also been germinating beans and cress to observe the process of germination up close. 


Literacy

We have finished all the features of our very own information pages for our class book this week about rainforest animals. We had to think carefully about the layout of our page when putting it all together so the order made sense and was eye catching. 


Finally... 

We wish Year 6 all the best for their tests next week. We are all very proud of how hard you have all worked.
