Yesterday, in our topic lesson, Year 3 learnt to write their names in Hieroglyphics, they looked absolutely amazing.
This morning, Chris from the Leadership team focussed on different leadership moves, to start off the children played a game where one child went out of the room and tried to guess which other child was a leader by carefully focusing on the movement they had chosen.
Next year 3 wrote down 4 different leadship moves based on kindness, some examples included opening the doors for people, sharing, helping those in need, smiling and giving lots of hugs. They then got into pairs with their chosen leadership moves and had to act it out so the other partner could guess what it is.
This afternoon in topic the children created their own pictures of valuables that the Ancient Egyptians owned and then traded these amongst themselves. We referred back to the trade and travel pages of the Ancient Egyptian study book and discussed how the River Nile was also so important to trading.
This morning, year 3 had a real treat where poet Ian Bland presented some of his poems based to us via a teams call.
Ian also taught them how to to create their own poem based on 20 things found in a footballers bag. Some of the children were able to recite their poems to the other children.
Our topic for this term is all about Ancient Egypt and this afternoon their learning challenge is what are pyramids and why were they built?. Year 3 made their own mini pyramids using tiny blocks and had to write down how many blocks they used if it was 3, 4 and 5 blocks high.
This afternoon, year 3 have been busy making Father’s Day cards for the special people in their lives.
This term our topic is all about plants and this afternoon some of the children got into character as flowers and pollinators to show how a flower is pollinated.
