Chatsworth Trip - May 2024
Performance poetry
In English this week we have been learning about Acrostic and Performance poetry. Please see verse one of our chosen performance poem, 'Mummy.' The children were fantastic at adding actions and using different tones of voice to perform the rest of the poem in small groups. Well done.
Year 3 Egyptian Art
In Art we have been learning all about the Ancient Egyptian style using signs and symbols. We created our own papyrus papers and then used them to make scrolls to tell others about ourselves using signs and symbols.

Year 3 Prehistoric Art
We have been learning all about cave art and creating our own simple animal sketches using chalks and charcoal, thinking about the shapes we use and how to add minimal detail. We then used berries and spices to create our own paints just like they would have done in prehistoric times to make our own cave walls of animal sketches and handprints just like the famous Cueva de las Manos.
Year 3 DT - Pneumatic toys
What a fantastic first DT day of the year. Today we made moving toys that use air to produce movement (pheumatic). Look at our fabulous designs!
Year 3 Art project - Sketching
What a fabulous first week back at school! We have been learning all about the artists Max Ernst and Maud Purdy to create our own 'frottage,' pieces of art. Here are some of our finished pieces.
