Scientific Skeletons and Marvellous Muscles

The children in Year 3 have been investigating the bones we have in our human body that make up the human skeleton. We have investigated the main functions of a skeleton and have had fun learning while making our own skeletons and labelling the main bones we have in our bodies. We have also been learning interesting facts about our muscles and what they are used for. Follow the video to find instructions to help you make your own arm model:

Reading Books in Term 1

In Year 3 we have been Reading a range of books throughout the Term. We have used the book; Giraffes Can’t Dance, written by Giles Andreae as an inspiration for our writing in English. The magical wonderment and illustrations of the book; Leon and the Place between by Grahame Baker-Smith has captured our imagination and encouraged us to make predictions and inferences. We selected some poems to read and enjoy from Valerie Bloom’s poetry collection in the book, Hot Like Fire.
