Who Were The First People To Live In Britain?
We’ve started our new topic of ‘Who were the first people in Britain’. Both at home and in school we have exploring and discussing artefacts from the Stone Age period and what they may have been used for.
Year 3 children at home and in school have been designing and creating their own Stone Age meals. They had to find out how they would source their ingredients and if they were safe or not.
We’ve been designing our own creatures with different features that would survive the Stone Age.
We’ve been busy making Stone Age tools
Our reading buddy brought a magic note yesterday after he learnt how to use a laptop. He has asked the children to write a story for him to read - so with all the excitement they got busy planning them.

Mental Health Awareness Week
We have been on a gratitude scavenger hunt today at home and in school. We’ve been searching for things that we are grateful for and enjoy.
We’ve been inspired by Mark Rothko and his emotions art for #MentalHealthAwareness in expressing ourselves. We’ve been creating art and poetry at home and in school. Really proud of these thoughtful beautiful pieces.
Internet Safety Day
We’ve been exploring how to keep ourselves safe from fake news and information found on the internet. We’ve looked at how to spot it and what to do if we do find it.

Exploring Emotions
We’ve been exploring emotions we feel through the day and how it’s okay to feel them all as long as we understand and accept them. It was nice to see how similar we all were in feeling a mix of emotions all the time.
