Year 3 have loved being outside using chalk to create Roman numeral clocks.

We have had a fabulous morning on our mini beast adventure! We have painted, created, built, worked as a team, face painted, ate snacks, created potions, hunted for mini beasts, made bracelets and more!

We have been using cotton buds and our finger strength to press and mark mark in the paint pouches. The paint was squashy, thick and difficult to press into the shapes but we persevered!

In Geography we have been learning about hot and cold countries and the polar regions. 
in English today we have been using the chrome books to research information about penguins in view to writing a fact file.
