This term in Geography we have been studying the rainforest. We have created a large display of the rainforest, presenting the different layers of the rainforest along with the various animals that live within the different layers. Furthermore we have studied about the climate of the rainforest and how that affects the world. This is an exciting project for us and we really enjoyed learning and producing information booklets about the rainforest too.

On Monday the 10th july Year 3 had a fantastic time meeting there new teacher. They had a morning filled with fun activities. Year 3 began with writing a little bit about themselves and continued this with playing 'All about me' Bingo. After break they were faced with a team challenge. Year 3 were given a range of equipment and a pot of dirty water. As a team they had to work out the best method and the best equipment to use to filter the dirty water to clean water. An exciting challenge!

Science.

In Science we have been leaning about Forces and Magnets. Children had fun taking part in lots of different experiments to see how far a car can travel on different surfaces. They looked closely at the different poles of a magnet and how a magnet works. Year 3 enjoyed creating their own game using a magnetic!
