Year 3
Last term we read the book ‘The Iron Man’ by Ted Hughes. We really enjoyed the story and produced some interesting work relating to it.
We also used it as a prelude to our work on ‘Moving monsters’ where we created monsters from egg boxes and used empty plastic bottles to make them move.
‘Cliffhanger’ by Jacqueline Wilson introduced our work on adventure stories in Literacy.
We were all absorbed by the mystery of the whereabouts of the pioneering pilot Amelia Earhart and her subsequent death. This encouraged us to look at photographic, video and written evidence to research this famous person in History.
Looking forward to the rest of the year...
At the start of term 4 we will be visiting Malmesbury as part of our local geography, finding out about the Abbey and the river as well as the story of ‘Elmer the flying monk’.
