Year 3 Doodling Lesson with Liz Pichon

Year 3 were privileged to take part in one of Scholastic Schools Live ‘Festive Doodling’ lesson with Liz Pichon, author of the Tom Gates books.

They enjoyed hearing about Liz’s new book ‘Tom Gates: Happy to Help’ and learnt how to doodle in her signature style!

Year 3 Maths

Last week, Year 3 started their topic of measurement in maths. They learnt how to measure in mm, cm and m by measuring lines on the playground.

Back in the classroom, the children then matched their measurements to the real size of different animals, using the books ‘Actual Size’ and ‘Prehistoric Actual Size’ by Steve Jenkins.

Year 3 RSE

We looked at permission in RSE today. We discussed different scenarios and explored why it is important to ask for permission.

Year 3 RSE

We looked at how our bodies change as we get older. We created these top trump cards and compared how different things change.
