Year 3 Blog

This afternoon children in year 3 have been thinking about how to keep safe online. In groups the children have made E Safety board games. Here are some photos of the groups playing their games. 

This week children in year 3 have been making a Beaker folk clay coil pot. It was a fun packed afternoon and the children loved getting messy making their clay pots. They first designed their pot deciding on the shape, size and pattern and then went on to making the clay pot.

In year 3 we are learning how to subtract using column method. We have been playing a game to help us with exchanging and regrouping. The children enjoyed the game so much they wanted to keep playing all lesson.

Time for a group photo. Picnic time in the glorious Autumn sunshine. We met our guide John and put on our helmets. Inside the cave the children impressed John with their enthusiasm and knowledge of rocks and stones.

The children in 3P worked really sensibly in groups to collect information about the Bronze Age before writing their own fact sheets.

3T started the new school week with a trip to Ingleborough Cave in North Yorkshire. It was a crisp, dry autumn day; perfect for a slow walk to the entrance of the cave taking in the glorious countryside around us. There was time to enjoy a picnic and let off some steam before descending into the cave. Our guide, Steph, gave us a fascinating tour of the cave pointing out different features and tried to scare us with her tales of witches and wizards. All too soon we had to make the journey back to Blackpool. Good times!            Ready to start the uphill journey to Ingleborough Cave. Time for a rest! Perfect place for a picnic! Inside the cave.
