Beechcroft Infants School
Welcome
Class 3
In Maths we have been collecting data and displaying it in tally charts and block diagrams.
In DT we are making ferris wheels because we are learning all about the beach and how they have changed over time.
In PE we have been practising Athletics in preparation for Sports Day. Look at us throwing the javelins!
We then moved onto measuring mass. We thought about which objects we would measure in grams and which objects we would measure in kilograms.
We have been practising our throwing and catching skills with Mr Robertson ready to take part in cricket this term. We also practised aiming to throw at the wicket.
A great effort from all of the Easter Bonnets this year!
Red Nose Day
PE
We had a fab time at our Australia Day! Our costumes looked fantastic. Mr Mildenhall played the didgeridoo, Mrs Gooch told us about her time living in Perth, we learnt some Australian folk songs, made an Australian flag, learnt how to play Australian football and decorated boomerangs using aboriginal symbols.
Christmas Party Day 2024
In Computing we have been talking about how we would feel in different situations online.
In Art we have been building on our fantastic clay skills. This year we are learning how to ‘impress’ into the clay which is where we make marks or patterns into the clay. We are also learning how to ‘work in relief.’ This means making a shape and sticking it onto the clay tile.
In Computing during our Unplugged Sessions we created flipbooks to tell a short story.
In Maths we have been partitioning two digit numbers into tens and ones. Some of us have been doing this practically and some of us written.
Year 2 had a fire safety talk from Wiltshire Fire Service. We learnt three things we needed to do in a fire and how to stay safe near water as well. It was a great fun, interactive session!
