Home Learning - World Map (Friday 8th Feb)

World Map

I have asked the children to have a go at putting the names of the continents and oceans on a World Map. To do this they will need to look at a World map. They might like to shade the continents in different colours.
There was some fantastic work done last week when the children were asked to label a map of Europe.

Learning about The Gambia

In Geography lessons this week we have been learning about the Gambia. We have looked at maps, photographs and lots of interesting artefacts that Mr. Farrington brought back from The Gambia after his stay there.

Year 3 Library Books

Please can you have a check at home for any school library books that you may have. According to our computerised system, some of the children have had the same library book for rather a long time.

Thank you.

Forces

The children in Year 3 have been learning about Forces with Mrs. Whiting and Mr. MacBean.
We have been testing how far a toy car will roll when you change the gradient of the starting slope. We have been testing the grip (friction) of the soles of our shoes. We've been testing the strength of different magnets. We've been making parachutes! Great fun!

Moses and the 10 plagues of Egypt

Today Year 3 learnt about Moses leading the Jews out of slavery in Egypt. We talked about the 10 plagues sent by God. Can the children find out all of the 10 plagues including the angel of death which "passed over" the houses of the Jewish people.? Next week Year 3 will be having an exciting day all about the Passover Festival (Pesach in Hebrew) led by a good friend of the school who is a practising Jew and teacher.

Europe Map - Year 3 Home Learning

Home Learning Year 3 – Friday 1^st  February

For Home learning this week I have given the children a map of Europe with the instruction of adding details by looking at a complete map.

Can they find and colour in 15 of the countries?

Perhaps they could label even more than 15.

Football Clubs

As a safety issue can I remind all children they MUST wear shin pads when attending football clubs on Monday (after school) and Wednesday (lunchtime). Thank you.
