We have had a very busy summer term in year 3. We have been using pneumatic mechanisms to make moving seat monsters, learning how to tell the time, comparing rocks and thinking about what we can do to look after our oceans. We also took part in the carry my story project.
We have had a busy term in year 3. We have learnt all about Huddersfield, which involved us going for a walk into Huddersfield town centre and sketching the train station. We also created collages of Huddersfield. We mummified tomatoes as part of our History topic of ancient Egypt and created Egyptian dances in P.E.

Completed Art work of Huddersfield Town buildings. How talented are Year 3?!
On Thursday 6th October, Year 3 went on the 'Huddersfield Heritage Mile Trail' to discover some amazing buildings and learn a little more about Huddersfield's past. We were really lucky to have Mr John Lambe (Historian) lead our walk and share some of his own knowledge of our town with the children.
In Art, we have been using a range of drawing pencils to sketch some of the important buildings in Huddersfield. We looked for shapes within shapes to try and make our drawings look as realistic as possible. I think we have some budding artists in Year 3!
