Class 3 Spring Term 2016
Design and Technology
We have been peeling, chopping and grating vegetables as part of our food project in D and T. We used celery, onion, spring onion, tomato, pepper and carrot.
Here we are working with great concentration.
We have designed our own toasted sandwiches and next week we will be making and tasting them.

British Values Day 7th March 2016
For the first part of the morning Key Stage 2 worked together to discuss what makes a perfect playground pal.
We discussed the question "At morning playtime should Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 have separate playgrounds?"
Class 3 thought about the reasons for not having separate playgrounds. Some children presented these reasons in class.

Here we are presenting our ideas in a whole school assembly.
Class 3 presented reasons for a mixed playtime and Class 4 presented reasons for separate playgrounds. Everyone worked very hard and put their ideas across in a very persuasive way.

Science class 3.
It's been very smelly in Class 3 this week!
We have been investigating yeast to discover why it is used in bread making. This links to our bread work in D and T.

Design and Technology. Investigating existing products.
We have been tasting different types of bread in Class 3 as part of our new project in Design and Technology. Some of the bread was toasted. We had to record words to describe the appearance, the aroma, taste, texture and finally a score for each type of bread. Towards the end of term we are going to be designing and making our own toasted sandwiches.
World Book Day 3rd March 2016
Class 3 shared books in the school library as part of World Book Day. We looked at range of books including poems, The Romans, crystal growing, unicorns, Europe, World War 2 and much more.
Visitor in Class 3
We have had a visitor in Class 3 recently. No not Mr Powis! It was Mr Bones!
We have been investigating the human skeleton as part of our topic called 'Animals including humans'.
The children looked at the different bones in the body and we discussed the functions of the skeleton.

Design and Technology
We have been designing and making a card with a mechanism. Here we are hard at work on the prototypes and the final product.
Big Schools' Birdwatch
Class 3 have taken part in this years birdwatch organised by the RSPB. We had a brilliant time discovering birds in the school grounds. We recorded the number of each species that we saw at the same time and have now submitted all of our data. Our results were very interesting.
We joined British astronaut Tim Peake for a live broadcast from the ISS on 2nd February.
Tim answered questions from school children across the UK. He carried out science experiments via satellite link. We watched Tim spinning head over heels. He then added a vitamin tablet to a bubble of water, which fizzed and expanded. It was so exciting.

Science
In Science we are learning about the Earth, the sun and the moon. We have also been finding out information about Major Tim Peake and his life on the International Space Station.
Today we have been learning about night and day and the movement of the Earth around the sun. We also explored the sizes of the Earth, sun and moon using a range of different sized balls.

The Pirate's Revenge
Our Fiction Express book is called The Pirate's Revenge. We have been looking carefully at chapter one which is called The Warning.
Here we are working in groups to discover as much information as possible about the characters Arden Trelorey, John Trelorey , Ebenezer Dag, Lambert Spain and Old Jacob. We are going to use this information to make posters.
