Independent write 🧊🦣✏️
This morning, we have had our experience lesson for our independent write. We sequenced the pictures of the video and then chotted some ideas and vocabulary we might use. We then completed our planning sheet with lots of year 3 features such as fronted adverbials, conjunctions and ambitious vocabulary.

Ice experiment
Today in Crew Haddock we did another experiment but this time with ice. They had to get 3 cups and fill them with the same amount of water and put them in the freezer. Once they are frozen we then put 1 on the table, 1 on the radiator and then we left the last one in the freezer. We then checked each cup every 30 minutes to see which one was melting first. We found that the one on the radiator melted first and the one in the freezer didn’t melt at all.
3D shapes
Today, we explored 3D shapes. We sorted them based on their properties and learnt some new vocabulary. We counted the faces, edges and vertices and then matched them to their name at the end of the lesson.
Computing in Crew MI
This week in computing, we carried on with out learning about search engines. We used a search engine to find information about explorers. We then worked together to research answers to questions. Quickly, we figured out that the website we were using was full of inaccurate information and fake news when we compared it to another website. We learnt that we have to be careful when searching on the internet.
Cheerleading club in action!
African artwork 🦓
In our art lessons we have been learning about Georges Seurat and how he uses pointillism to create his artwork, we did a lot of practise of this first before having a go at our final product.
Algorithms – precise and concise
In our computing lesson today we have looked at algorithms in more depth and looked at why the instruction needs to be precise so that everyone does the same and follows it the same.
We learnt that editing an algorithm is called a bug.
Experience day – Fun at the park 🛝
We have started our new text today, Lost and Found. The boy unexpectedly found a penguin on his doorstep 🐧 They little boy was confused as to who it belonged to and in order to find out where he had come from they visited lots of places. His first stop was the park. He saw lots of noisy children and chirping birds who ignored the little boys plea for help.
