Active Planet
Year 3 have blasted back into the new term with the topic ‘Active Planet’.
When they entered the classroom on Tuesday, there was a giant earthquake crack down the classroom. They got straight to work investigating what had happened making their own news clips. The children also learnt first aid techniques and had fun with pastel drawings of earthquakes. As well as looking deeply into the inside of a volcano and finding out all about the different parts whilst making their own volcanoes.
