Stone Age Art Handprints
Take a look at some of our fantastic Stone Age handprints that we have created as part of our Cave Art topic.
Rock Detectives
Today in Science, we have been exploring a variety of natural rocks. We studied each rock sample and looked for key features. We drew the rocks and labelled them using key vocabulary. At the end of the lesson we learnt about six different rocks: chalk, slate, limestone, granite, marble and sandstone. We were then able to match each rock to its correct name. Have a look at us being rock detectives below:
Maths - Representing numbers to 100
Today we revisited representing numbers to 100. We made two-digit numbers using a variety of equipment such as base ten, bead strings and counters. Take a look at us working hard to make the numbers on our grid.
Stone Age Jewellery
We have had a brilliant time so far in Year 3. This term, we are learning all about the Stone Age. We discovered that people from the Stone Age made jewellery out of teeth. Using clay, we created our own teeth necklaces.
