Year 3 have been hard at work this week exploring the apparatus. After the important safety talks, they were away with all of the swinging and climbing usually reserved for the rain forest.
This week, the children carried out their assessment about volcanoes. Are all volcanoes bad for the Earth? There were some great discussions within the class. To conclude their leaning, one of the children made a volcano and we used both coke and mentos as well as bicarbonate and vinegar to make it erupt. What an explosive time.
This week, Year 3 began their new learning all about fractions! We have started to use the words 'numerator' and 'denominator' to refer to the top and bottom parts of a fraction. Now we all know that when a denominator is bigger, that means the whole has been divided into smaller parts!
