We were very lucky in Year 3 to have a visitor from One Day Creative who put on a workshop about Earthquakes and Volcano. There were games, drama and many performances to enable Year 3 to further enhance their knowledge on our current topic. The children thoroughly got into the spirit of the workshop and had a fantastic time!
Year 3 have been building their own cars in D.T. Once built they were used to investigate the effects of friction. to do this the children rolled the cars down a series of different ramps which each had a different surface texture. Sponge, wood, sandpaper and carpet. Before beginning their investigation they made a series of predictions about which surfaces would create the most friction. Then the fun began ! Take a look at the pictures below:







What a great way of exciting and engaging children through drama to deepen their knowledge and understanding. Keep growing your skills, Year 3.
