As part of their Flow topic, our Year Three pupils are investigating the River Stour. They are surveying the river habitat, dipping in the river and examining its contents and observing local wildlife.
Each class is participating on a different day – today is 3C’s turn!
Two classes travelled to Weymouth yesterday to visit the Sealife Centre in connection with their ‘Blue Abyss’ topic. Two other classes will travel into the depths this Friday!
Year 3 enjoyed a wide variety of experiences related to their ‘Flow’ topic about rivers and water today. They were introduced to the water cycle, created river themed music using a pentatonic scale and painted pictures in an impressionist style, using Monet’s work as inspiration. The children also attended a ‘Water Wise’ session led by a visiting expert, where they learned about cleaning and testing water.
As part of their ‘Blue Abyss’ topic about the world’s seas and oceans, Year 4 pupils have been investigating plastic pollution.
Here are some shocking facts that 4AbW shared this afternoon:
Year 4 have been making printing tiles this afternoon featuring images of volcanoes. We can’t wait to see the resultant compositions!
Year 4 began their ‘Tremors’ topic today with an immersive trip into the Science Dome before creating their own model volcanoes.
Our Year Three pupils had a wonderful time at Leeson House this week. The weather was very kind and allowed all activities to go extremely smoothly. Many thanks to all of the staff who gave up their time to allow for this magical experience for our pupils.
