Gymnastics 🤸🏿‍♀️🤸🏿‍♀️🤸🏿‍♀️🤸🏿‍♀️


Keeping (and staying!) active is so important in everyone's lives and over the last six months, we have all taken a hit - but Year 3 returned to school, resilient in every way and have approached Gymnastics lessons with enthusiasm and perseverence. Last week we learned how to be a gymnast - walking like a gymnast and learning the names of some gymnastic postitions. The children were amazing in their Gymnast / Coach roles and by the end of the session could tuck, pike, dish, arch and front and back support well. This week, we have been looking at balancing and using our hands and feet in different ways,and using some simple equipment to build our balances

Thank you to Positive PE for their amazing support in their training last year to help us make our PE teaching better.

Stone Age Stewed Fruit

Year 3 have been studying instruction texts and as part of the process we made some Stone Age stewed fruit using a selection of fruits, hazelnut and honey as an added sweetener. The process not only allowed the children to get stuck in practically but also informed their own writing of instructions following the making of the fruit stew.

On Wednesday 1st May, 3WP visited the Jetavana Buddhist Temple in Handsworth as part of their RE studies - visiting local places of worship.  We walked all the way from Welford to Booth Street and when we got inside, we had to take off our shoes, as the children do in many of their own places of worship.  We decided that this was respectful, so we left our shoes by the front door. The head monk met us in the Temple and told us lots of interesting things about why he decided to follow Buddhism and how long it took him to be able to deliver teaching in his faith.   The children asked lots of interesting questions about his beliefs, religious clothing and prayer.  The children were very respectful at the temple and enjoyed the visit.

Peek into Prehistory

Usually,during the school year we take the children on educational visits related to our Topics. Sadly, recent circumstances have meant that this hasn't been possible. However we received some exciting news that the British Museum was offering virtual tours, an offer that was far too good to miss! Our virtual visit took place last Friday afternoon. The children were in awe of the building when shown by the tour guide. The tour guide explained to the children what her job as an archaeologist entailted and how we use artefacts to help us build a picture of what the past was like. The tour was interactive, with children able to ask and answer questions. One of the highlights of the sessions was the Prehistoric quiz on Kahoot. Overall, it was a thoroughly enjoyable experience which helped to broaden our understanding of Prehistoric Britain.
