Year 3 Gallery

DT - Pizza Making
In year 3, we got to make pizza!  We made the dough and added the ingredients.  The best bit was definitely the tasting it at the end.  A BIG thank you to the kitchen staff who helped us with this.

History and DT - Roman Chariot Making
In year 3 we have been designing and making our own Roman chariots.  They needed to be able to move so we had to include a wheel and axle mechanism.  The photos here show us making our chariots. We had so much fun making our Roman chariots.

Art - The Final Product!

We have now got our Maya patterns printed onto our t-shirts.  We think they are amazing and we are so proud of our work.  Thank you Miss Chesney for printing our t-shirts for us.

Science - Making Muscles

Today we learnt all about how our muscles work.  We found out that when we flex our arm by lifting it towards our shoulder then the biceps muscle contracts.  When the arm is lengthened, the opposite happens. We had a go at making a model of an arm to show this working.  

History - Mayan Workshop

We had a great day during our Maya workshop.  Throughout the day, we took part in lots of different activities including having a go at writing our names in Mayan glyphs, weaving our own basket, wearing authentic Maya costumes, handling artefacts and even exploring the world of the Maya using a VR.  We had a great day!

History - Romans Workshop
Year 3 were lucky enough to have a visit from Historic Workshops where the children learnt lots about the Romans.  In the morning, the children learnt all about battle formations and tactics and were given their very own sword and shield to use.  In addition to this, the children took part in an archaeological dig session and a Roman board games session. The children had the best day!

Mental Health Week

We thought of different activities we could do to support our mental health.  We were split up into three groups and had a fun afternoon having a go at each activity.  During the afternoon, we got some fresh air, listened to music whilst doodling and did some craft activities.  It was great fun!

Science - Magnets
In our science lesson we had fun investigating magnets.  We had to find which items were magnetic and which were non-magnetic and then we learnt that magnets have a north and south pole.

Computing - Networks

In our computing lessons we have been looking at how computer networks work.  We learnt about the key parts of a network and looked at which components can be connected.

Year 3 have been busy creating a design using Maya patterns ready to print onto a t-shirt.  We can't wait to see how the t-shirts turn out.

History - Maya Art
In Year 3 we have been learning all about the Ancient Maya Civilization.  We have been looking at patterns and recreating these using different art media.  Keep an eye out in the coming weeks as we continue to work on this.
