Year 3 enjoyed making fraction walls in their lesson today before placing fractions onto a number line.


In expedition this afternoon we learnt about the water cycle. We learnt several new worlds including evaporation, condensation and precipitation. We used our new knowledge and our water cycle bags to explain the process to our friends.

Today we tried the traditional Maya drink which was used in religious ceremonies and weddings.







In expedition, we have been learning about Maya glyphs. The children then made their own glyphs and carved them into clay.













Today we used the blocks to explore and compare non unit fractions.
Today we conducted an experiment to see what would happen to chocolate when we applied heat.
We put 3 pieces of chocolate in a metal bowl inside a bowl filled with hot water.
To begin with the chocolate was solid.
We timed in 1 minute intervals and observed and recorded what happened to the chocolate.
After 4 minutes the chocolate was completely melted and was a liquid.
We put the chocolate back in the fridge for half an hour to see if it would change state again.
After 30 minutes it was a solid again!

















It was lovely to see children sharing their independent writes that they have been working on over the past week.
A big shout out to those children who stood up and shared their stories with the class too!
Year 3 enjoyed starting case study two with a lesson on states of matter. We investigated what the particles look like in solids, liquids and gases and how changes in temperature affect states of matter.
