Today we carried out a reliable test to see which was the runnier liquid. Sadly, Mr Crick would not let us try the honey or the tomato ketchup!
We also made our own lava lamps using water, cooking oil and a fizzy vitamin tablet. Mr Crick assured us that there was a lot of science here but we enjoyed looking at the bubbles!

Rock Relics and Rumbles: The attached Knowledge Organiser contains all of the key learning the children will be covering in the topic up to Easter. a copy will be sent to you in the Home Learning books.
Happy 2023!
I hope that you all had a good break. My thanks to those who were so kind as to give me a present. My family certainly enjoyed the seasonal spirit of sharing the consumable items!
Our topic for the Spring Terms is Rocks, Relics and Rumbles.
In the Rocks, Relics and Rumbles project, the children will learn about the different layers of the Earth, including plate tectonics and their potential effects on the Earth's surface. They will investigate different types of rock to learn about their uses and properties. They will also investigate soil and fossils, including learning about the work of Mary Anning. They will have the opportunity to use maps to learn about the lines of latitude and longitude and a compass to learn about the cardinal and intercardinal points. They will also learn about volcanoes, earthquakes and tsunamis and the long and short-term consequences that these can have.
English and Maths
Our foci for maths will be multiplication, length and perimeter, while in English we will be focussing on a fiction text in the first Spring Term and a narrative in the first person for the second Spring Term.
Our multiplication facts will concentrate on the combinations which have scored the least well on TT Rock Stars for the chosen table or tables for the week. A printed version of the multiplication facts of the week will also be in the children's Home Learning books.

Home Learning Books
Please make sure that the Home Learning Books are returned tomorrow [Monday]. We will be looking at what the children have found out and putting in the new spellings, multiplication facts and the research question for the topic.
And finally....
We go swimming tomorrow [Monday]. The children may wear their swimming costume under their PE kit. Please make sure they have underwear to change into after the session.
Here is the timetable for while the class is going swimming. Once the course is complete, I will post an updated version. Please note, this is a read-only file.
Here is a summary of the knowledge content of the learning we will be covering in our creative curriculum up to Christmas.

A big welcome to the children in Year Three and the two new members of our class.

This year they will also be included in the children's home learning book, which will be sent home every Tuesday and we ask that they reappear in school by the following Monday. I will also be including a home-learning activity which will usually linked to our topic for the term. [It is Invasion, by the way.]
