What ancient Egyptians believed about death? We used role play to become priests that would have preserved bodies and prepared them for being buried. We washed, pulled organs out, placed the body in salt, embalmed the body and then placed it into a coffin. #smithdownhist
3KM have had fun using imagination to draw pictures to represent our new vocabulary for our new novel βDear Earthβ ππΎπΏ #smithdowneng#smithdownYr3
In English, 3KM have been discussing predictions on what our new novel could be about by using colours for reference of different habitats πππΌ #smithdowneng#smithdownyr3
#smithdownextra#smithdownY3. This morning 3KM have been discussing different ways how we can be kind to others no matter our differences, we had some lovely things to say!
Year 3 had lots of fun today in maths adding and subtracting ten from a three digit number. A lot of the fun came from being able to write all over our tables! #smithdownmath
Lovely singing voices this morning! Year 3 have been learning all about our rights. We have discussed about having the right to learn and believe what you believe! #smithdownextra
In year 3 today, we practised doing peer to peer massages on each other. They completed many different strokes and we all felt very relaxed. Thank you very much for this @MrsCarpenter30#smithdownextra
Great start to the week focusing on the importance of attendance and why we need to be in school! Lots of different reasons that help us in different ways. #smithdownextra
What an exciting afternoon excavating some Ancient Egyptian artefacts! We all became archaeologists and discovered things like Howard Carter. We found some things that may have belonged to Tutankhamen. β°οΈπͺπ¬ #smithdownhist
Super start to our βPainting with Scissorsβ topic with a focus on Henri Matisse. Amazing inspiration applied to their own workβοΈπ great work Year 3! #smithdownart#theartsatsmithdown
What an experience! Year 3 went to a stately home to feel what one looked like and felt like. Sudley house was perfect for helping us understand our new book - Seen and not Heard. #smithdownenglish#smithdownextra
We have been exploring different push and pull forces that require contact between two objects. Lots of toys and actions helped us understand these forces. Year 3 did a great job of organising the forces into our Venn diagram. #smithdownsci
What a week it has been already! Year 3 children have settled in so well and demonstrated their maturity and attitude towards their work. They could remember lots of their previous learning in History. They could organise events into living memory and beyond. #smithdownhist
Great morning chopping, preparing, cooking and eating our traditional bolognese sauce. Children had a great time using fresh ingredients all with the help of Monica from our very own kitchen! #smithdowndt#smithdowngeog#smithdownextra
