Our Learning Journey...
Science
As part of our Rocks and soil topic, we have looked at how fossils are formed. We attempted to make our own fossils using flour, coffee granules, salt and water. It was not very successful but we had a lot of fun and learnt lots about fossils.

Science: Rocks and soil
This half term in Science we are learning all about rocks and soil. Today we have enjoyed using pipettes and sand paper to test the rocks. We tested the density, durability and absorption of different rocks. We all had lots of fun in our Science lesson today and are looking forward to learning more.
English
This half term we are using the story Pied Piper of Hamelin by Michael Morpurgo to help us write our own stories. We have started by showing how we would react to different scenarios. For example, a friend pushing us over or a RAT running across the dinner table.

In Year 3 we have enjoyed taking part in practical Maths lessons.
Here are some of our children showing all the different ways they can make a number.
Swimming Lessons
In Year 3, we are very lucky to go to Accrington Academy every Friday morning for a swimming lesson. Our first lesson was a 'dry' swimming lesson. We learnt all about water safety and why it is important to wear a swimming hat for our lessons.
Here are a few photographs of us trying our swimming hats on.
