Year 3
Year 2 Retention Quizzes
Science
Today we discussed what magnets can do! We explored the strength of a magnet against a range of different materials. We carried out a test to see how many paper clips a magnet could hold, how many papers a magnet can hold, the heaviest object a magnet can hold and the distance a magnet will attract an object. Here we are in action...
This week, we looked at different materials and whether they are attracted to a magnet or repel a magnet. We identified objects made of metal and had a class discussion to see if all metal objects are magnetic.
Year 3M carried out an investigation in science. We looked at how materials affect the way objects move across them! We carried out different tests using plastic, cardboard and fabric. We used a ramp and carried out a test to see how far/fast the car went down the ramp on each material and at different heights. Here we are in action...

This week, we discussed why parents and children love and respect one another, as God wants them to do. We shared our thoughts and worked in small groups.

Year 3M thought about different ways to move along the apparatus. We each thought of three different movements. Here we are in action...
We shared different modes of travel and how we can move from one area to another. We discussed lots of ways to move including running, jogging, skipping, hopping, jumping, crawling, rolling, tip toeing, star jumping and frog leaping.
In PE, we discussed lots of different ways we can communicate with one another. Drawing on each others backs, writing in the air, clicking our fingers, nodding our heads, blinking, clapping, stomping, shaking, tapping our knees and our elbows to the beat. Here are Year 3M in action...
