Linked to their body topic, year 3 have been creating stop frame animations. First they cut out a skeleton and used split pins to replicate the joints. Then, using the program ‘I Can Animate’ on the macbooks, took a series of photos which, when played back at speed, gave the impression that the skeleton was moving. Next week they will add audio explaining the different bones in the skeleton.
This week, Bella, our gorgeous school dog, has been out in the sunshine at lunchtime to meet the children. Everyone loved spending time with her, even those who were a little nervous to start with. As you can see, Bella really enjoyed all of the attention.
Viking food and drink

Feasts included the same foods – meat,fish,fowl,vegetables,wild greens,bread and fruit,but in a greater variety than usual meal and more of it. Vikings enjoyed drinking ale and mead in feasts. Mead is a strong, fermented drink made from honey.

All about Viking food and drink
Vikings might also eat some more dried fruit with honey and a sweet treat. Honey was the only sweetener the Vikings knew. Vikings drank ale, mead or buttermilk daily. Feasts would include the same foods – meat, fish, fowl, vegetables, wild greens, bread and fruit, but in greater variety than usual meal and more of it.
What the Viking drank
The reality is that fresh water was the most common drink of the time, just like today.

On Saturday Mrs. Sale and Mrs. Woods took 4 of our children to the BAFTA Cinema to see the screening of the first 4 episodes of the Night Zookeeper. They had a special invitation from the Night Zookeeper himself. Two of our children had designed characters which appeared in Episode 2 and Episode 3. The characters were the Guardian of Green which was a panda and the Guardian of Yellow which was a Monkey. Lindsey Russell (Presenter on Blue Peter) was the host. The actors of the show came on stage and the children in the audience could ask them questions. Our children were asked up on the stage for some fun activities and one of our children was also interviewed regarding his character. All in all, it was a brilliant day
Year 3 really enjoyed designing and making their roman mosaic tiles and
what a wonderful job they have done on them!
In Ash class/ year 3 we are learning about adverbs and verbs and adjectives and nouns. A noun is something you can touch. An adjective is a describing word that describes a noun. A verb is a doing word . An adverb describes a verb . We do this for SPAG sometimes. SPAG stands for spelling, punctuation and grammar. We work a lot in SPAG

In Year three we are doing fractions. Fractions are like this – one half and one third also one quarter. Some people think it is difficult, I think it’s a bit tricky.

In year three we are learning about volcanoes . We know the most about mount Vesuvius and we also know a lot about Pompeii .
This is how a volcano erupts. When two tectonic plates rub against each other, the pressure builds up pushing the magma up until it erupts and all the magma shoots out. We learnt that when the volcano erupts and the magma comes out it is known as lava.

Year 3 have really enjoyed learning about volcanoes they have found out all sorts of amazing things by doing their own research.
