Boys and girls, you’re making so much progress with your mapping skills this year! The children in Year 3 have planned out 3 route for tips so far and learned over 15 of their OS Map symbols. I’m super impressed!

Electrical conductors and insulators
Year 3 have been testing materials to find out if they are electrical conductors or electrical insulators. They investigated their materials first and tried to make predictions based on what they already knew.
Photo frame project – DT
Our DT project has been great so far! The children have investigated and analysed a range of photo frames. They looked at the designs and what technology had been used to make the stable and strong.
Year 3 have started investigating ways to make materials stronger. They began by folding, laminating, twisting and layering paper, then tearing it to see which method made the paper strongest. What did you discover Year 3?
Science Parent Learning
Thanks so much to our wonderful parents who supported the children and teachers in Year 3 this week! We loved having you with us to build burglar alarms. The children used their knowledge of circuits and conductors to make pressure pads and trip wires which sounded a buzzer when activated! Great stuff!
