Year 4 learn Locomotion

To help hook us into our new class novel we got to practice this martial arts “locomotion movement” style in class. We thoroughly enjoyed this and got to use this activity to help us with our predictions. Our main character clearly has to become agile and swift if they are not already. We used this to help us piece clues together to create predictions about the new novel.

We used some of our values such as Resilience when the moves became difficult, Reciprocity when we watched on and supported our peers and Resourcefulness when our peers helped us with some moves.

"You have to be so swift to do the through the legs!" Himanshi, Willow

We learnt we had to be really nimble and light on our feet to complete the challenges. Elizabeth, Maple.

Year 3 Certificates

 

Well done Year 3 for a fantastic week of hard work. 

In Literacy this week we have identified the features of a fact file, conducted research to find our own facts and planned and written our fact file based on the Stone Age. 

In Math, we have been continuing with mass and capacity. We have worked through mass and recently began measuring volume and capacity. The students had a great time using jugs with different capacities and volumes to measure amounts of water.

Well done to this weeks certificate winners!

Year 3 VR Experience

 

Year 3 VR Experience 

This week, the children were transported back in time to Ancient Rome, with the help of virtual reality. They were given a brief safety talk, before taking turns to wear the VR headset and experience life as a Roman.

At first, they observed the City of Rome from above and marvelled at the famous Colosseum. Next, they experienced life as a wealthy Roman, by visiting the ancient baths. The experience guide explained to the children that Roman baths were where people would go to relax, exercise and even complete business meetings. The children enjoyed the immersive experience and Mishti said 'It's like I am really here, people are moving!', whilst Sonny said 'It was so much fun!'

Finally, the children experienced Pompeii. The children identified the enormous, erupting volcano as Mount Vesuvius and recalled their knowledge of the city, which they obtained during the Spring term in their Literacy lessons. Tommy said 'I knew we had been taken to Pompeii when I saw the erupting volcano!'

We hope the children enjoyed this wonderful experience.
