Welcome back to our blog!

We have continued to create Stone Age art.

We used natural colours to decorate our cave wall.

We also worked as a class to create a cave wall featuring our handprints.

We have had some very special visitors in our class this week!

Welcome back to our blog.

This week we have been exploring cave paintings as part of our Stone Age topic. We collected materials from nature to make paint to create stone age art.

Then we used the natural materials to make marks, just like prehistoric artists would have done.

After that, we use spices (turmeric, cinnamon and paprika) to make our own paint. We added this to our Stone Age colour palette.

Finally, we used couscous and PVA glue to add texture to some card- so that it was more like a cave wall. Next week we will add some images using charcoal.

What a busy week it has been in Year 3.

We have been learning our 3 and 4 times table this week. It helps if we can practise our times tables on TT Rockstars at home.

In English, we created a WANTED poster for Captain Hook using adjectives and similes.

In English this week we have been collecting adjectives to describe Jim Lad, one of the characters in our class novel, The Pirates Next Door.

In Maths, we have worked in our groups to explore different aspects of number. Some of us have been looking at multiples of 2, 5 and 10. Some of us have been exploring tens and ones.

Have a fantastic weekend!
