From Romans to Dodgeball – A Busy Start for Tim Peake Class!
Share this post
Year 3 dive into story writing, healthy eating, Roman history, and dodgeball skills in a fantastic first few weeks back.
TL;DR:
- Settled brilliantly into Year 3 and working hard.
- Wrote setting descriptions inspired by Blue Planet.
- Learned place value and number operations up to 1000.
- Explored healthy eating and food groups in Science.
- Started learning about the Romans ahead of a villa trip.
Tim Peake class have been working incredibly hard during their start to Year 3.
In English we have looked at describing a setting within story writing. We have used the Blue Planet as a starting point for writing our own descriptions.
In maths we have been learning the place value of numbers up to 1000 and have used 100s, 10s and 1s counters to support our learning. We are now moving on to adding and subtracting numbers up to 1000.
In science we have been thinking about different food groups and what constitutes a healthy balanced meal.
Mr Marshall has been coaching us in PE, teaching us the skills needed to play dodgeball successfully.
In history we have started to learn about the Romans including when and why they invaded Britain. We are looking forward to our trip to the Roman Villa next Wednesday.
