I can still remember someone reading an extract from  The Diary of Adrian Mole Aged 13 3/4 and thinking I have got to get book. Long may it continue! RIP Shirly Hughes.

World Book Day.

How fitting to be reading, sharing stories and facts from our favourite books with our friends and those from other classes too!

Year 3 recreate Stone Age cave drawings.

Story time in Year 3 and 5

Year 3 have been building dens to protect their Lego (stone Age) man from the elements.

Year 3 have also been using Scratch to create their own Stone Age game.

All in all we dig the Stone Age!

Happy New Year

Year 3 prepare for the Stone Age by classifying different types of rocks.

Year 3 have been learning about both local artists and more established artists from long previous Centuries.

Here is some work about French artist Henri Matisse.

Year 3 have been studying the art of Henri Matisse. As a tribute to his famous collage 'The snail' we created our own collage animals. Enjoy!

We have looked at where a number of famous artists created their most celebrated works of art and mapped them on our European map.. We have examined the work of Henri Matisse and his famous collage The snail. As a result we created our own animal collages in his style.
