Getting ready for Christmas!

We put up our class Christmas trees this week and are getting very excited!
We have been working so hard on our Christmas concert and we can't wait to show you our super performance next week.

Electricity

This week in science we have been learning about electricity. We have talked about how important electricity is in our life but also how dangerous it can be - and how we should be safe around it. Today we made electrical circuits. We made bulbs light up by connecting them to a battery with two wires. Next week we will be investigating conductors and insulators as well as putting switches into our circuits.

Christmas Shop!

We enjoyed buying items at the Christmas Shop. Thanks to all the Year 3 children for running the shop.

Winding Mechanisms

This week we have been making our winding mechanisms.

Can you explain to your adults how we made them?

Beauty and the Beast Masks

Each class has been busy making a beast mask for a competition organised by The Carriageworks. The masks are displayed in the hall.

Class 2 Red made their mask by using salt dough, sticks, paper and feathers.

Class 2 Blue made their mask by using newspaper, modroc and magazine cuttings.

We think they look great!
