3L (2021-2022) – Holbeach Blog

We All Wore Red

We all wore red to show racism the red card!

It was also Reggie’s last day at Holbeach School (middle centre, wearing an Angry Bird’s sweatshirt.) We made him a ‘Good-bye!’ card and wished him all the best for his next chapter at his new school.

3L – We made a Clay Tile of a Victorian House

We put 2 sticks either side of our clay and rolled it forwards with a rolling pin, until it was the same thickness as the sticks.

We then cut it into a rectangular shape and used the scratch and slip method to attach the roof.

Next, we added the features of the house.

Finally, we added the detail of the brickwork and the roof tiles. We used clay tiles to create the different textures.

Our tiles are now ready to be fired in a kiln.

Use a mirror to create a symmetrical pattern on the paper I have given you. Position the mirror on the center lie and ensure the pattern is the same on both sides.

Make sure you bring it in on Wednesday so that we can share each other’s work during the lesson.

3L’s Art.

We are going to be making a Victorian house out of clay this term.

There are lots of Victorian houses near our school so we went out on location to look at one in real life.

We did an observational drawing of one.

We really paid attention to the pattern of the brickwork and the roof tiles.

Maths

Log into MyMaths and have a go at the two tasks that I have set you.

Topic.

We thought about our main living space today and drew a picture of the things inside it. We thought about the lighting, heating, where we relax, our entertainment and our favourite piece of furniture or object.

Choose another room in your house and think about the same aspects. Draw and label it in your book.

Our Cyberbullying Posters

We have been learning about cyberbullying. We made posters to remind everyone to always be kind, even online. We also wanted to let people know what they should do if it ever happened to them.

Year 3 ~bring your favourite book to school on Friday…

We will be taking ten minutes to curl up with our favorite book, comic or magazine.

Tennis!

3L have (re)started tennis lessons with a professional tennis coach at Ladywell Fields. We have been practising hitting the ball with our forearm. We know how to get in the ‘ready’ position and do a little jump when the ball is served to us. We then turn our bodies to the direction of the ball, wait for it to bounce then hit it!

We could be the next Emma Raducanu!
