3W’s Stone Age Topic

The children in Year 3 have made a great start to the year!

In English we have read the story Orion and the Dark, which the children really enjoyed. We learnt about speech bubbles and how to punctuate direct speech, which we then included in our own versions of the story. 

In topic, we have been learning about the Stone Age. The children have learnt about where Stone Age people live, what they ate and the tools they used. This week the children turned into hunters and gatherers and went to hunt for food. We then returned to class and made a Stone Age dessert. 

The children have been learning about light in science. So far we have learnt about light sources, reflections and how a shadow is made. We then made shadow puppets about characters from Orion and the Dark.

COVID19 👈

Following current guidance, we do not have year group ‘bubbles’ and children and staff will be able to mix with each other throughout the school day. Bubbles may have to be reintroduced when necessary. 

Classes are set up differently to last year and children will go to Key stage assemblies. We will continue to have whole school assemblies virtually for the time being.

We will have staggered break and lunchtimes. This is to ensure that lunchtimes runs smoothly and children have more space on the playground.
