Join us on our magical learning journey in Y3AP!

Today we have been working to produce simple movement with blocks. We made our own scenes with various sprites and created different algorithms to accompany them. #oakfieldhydey3 #oakfieldhydecomputing

Emperor Claudius visited us in school today. He travelled forward in time to tell us all about his invasion of Britain and what the Romans achieved when they settled there. 🗡 #oakfieldhydey3 #oakfieldhydehistory

Breaking News - watch today’s news report about the eruption of Mount Vesuvius 🌋🚨 #oakfieldenglish #eltipads

[OakfieldY3 @OakfieldY3]

In English, we’ve been predicting and interviewing survivors of Mount Vesuvius’s eruption. We used a green screen to record our interviews and on Monday will work some magic so they look like the children are in a TV studio. 🌋☺️

Yesterday we made mosaics inspired by our class text, Escape From Pompeii #oakfieldart #oakfieldenglish

We used the research iPads to retrieve prior knowledge we had about seed dispersal. Amazed at what we could remember from British Science week 🌻 #eltipads #oakfieldscience

Today we have been learning about the Pride Flag, the meanings behinds its colours and why we have one.
We designed our own flags, thinking carefully about what the colours mean to us. #oakfieldpshe #SchoolDiversityWeek #PrideMonth

Today, we have been answering the question: Are all families the same? We concluded that they are not. We learnt that a family looks like a loving, kind and safe space. People can have two dads or no dads, as long as they feel loved. #diversityweek #oakfieldpshe @JustLikeUsUK

The #Oakfieldfamily is proud to be celebrating School Diversity Week this week! @JustLikeUsUK

Today we have been comparing what makes Ben ordinary and special and then what makes us ordinary and special. We concluded that everyone’s ‘ordinary’ looks different. What makes us special is the relationship we have. @JustLikeUsUK #oakfieldpshe

This week we’ve been learning about explorers and why they are heroes to us. We picked the inspiring Lakpa Rita Sherpa and @Al_Humphreys. We’ve got a few children in Y3 wanting to climb Mount Everest now. 🗺🧭🗻 #oakfieldenglish

Today, we were investigating which materials are conductors and insulators. We used padlet record our predictions before making circuits with the materials in. 💡 #oakfieldscience #eltipads

[OakfieldY3 @OakfieldY3]

Today, we used a Kahoot! quiz to retrieve last term’s learning about Evolution and Adaptation. Really impressive with how much knowledge the children have managed to retain… especially about Megalodons! 🦈 #eltipads #oakfieldscience

We have been comparing length today. We wanted to find if taller people could jump further?
We measured our height and jumping distance in cm to collect the data. Y3 found out that the tallest person can’t always jump the longest distance. 📏 #oakfieldmaths

[OakfieldY3 @OakfieldY3]

Today, we have been exploring sound and whether you can see sound? We’ve been making instruments vibrate. We found out that you can’t see sound but you can see the vibrations the sounds make. Prepare for slow motion ‘ohhhhhh’ 😆 #oakfieldscience

[OakfieldY3 @OakfieldY3]

So proud of our final art project. We took our inspiration from Shraddha Shrestha’s street art. #oakfieldart

[OakfieldY3 @OakfieldY3]

Working hard in steel pans yesterday, well done Y3 🎶 #oakfieldmusic

[OakfieldY3 @OakfieldY3]

As part of British Science week, we have been focused on Growth. Year 3 are growing spring onions.
Today, we prepared the growing bed and planted our seeds. Looking forward to seeing the results in 8 weeks! 🌱 #oakfieldscience #BritishScienceWeek

[OakfieldY3 @OakfieldY3]

This week in science week, we have been investigating how seeds are dispersed. We explored whether the weight, size or material of the seed effect how successful the seed fall… wait for the results tomorrow! 🧑‍🔬🌱 #oakfieldscience #BritishScienceWeek2022

Our Science Week text is called Timeless Thomas and it all about Thomas Edison and his inventions. We created dual coding to help us learn about his life. 💡🧑‍🔬 #oakfieldscience #BritishScienceWeek
