Third Class have worked hard in all areas in the months of September and October. Below is a snippet!
Science- We learned all about Gliders, spoke about aerodynamics, created our own Straw Gliders and practiced throwing them on the yard to see whose could go the furthest. We made Lava Lamps. We discussed whether oil and water mix and which was more dense. Each pupil created their own Lava Lamp to bring home. For Space Week we discussed the First Moon Landing and listened to the last minute of audio from Apollo 11 as Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins landed on the moon. We created our own rockets using toilet rolls and clothes pegs and launched them into space!
Geography- We designed and carried out a Nature Scavenger Hunt and explored the school grounds for all types of creepy crawlies from ants to woodlice and from spiders to cockroaches. Yikes! We looked at The Deep Sea and discovered the friendly types of animals that live there, from the Twilight Zone right down to The Challenger Deep, 10,000 metres beneath the sea.
Maths- We did station teaching which included Roll the Dice Addition and Card Games. For Maths Week we had a quiz with 4th, 5th and 6th Classes which included some fantastic jokes! We also made 2- D Shape Robots which were very creative and imaginative. We played class games like King or Queen and Daily10.
Physical Education- We had football training with Peter Nash. We worked on athletics, sprinting, hurdling and throwing. The class enjoyed having relay races. New games which Third Class played include Waspital and Yoshi.
