Launch day- 03.06.24
We presented holiday projects and shared what we have learned over the half term about rivers.
Did you know it is said that The Finke River may be the oldest river in the world!Â
Children enjoyed sharing their homework projects; we had things from dioramas, questionnaires, illustrative posters and many more. It was fantastic to see how children recalled knowledge. After this we used multimedia resources to find information regarding different rivers. We used chromebooks, projects and even atlases to help us locate rivers and identify the human and physical geography. Using our findings we created top trumps, posters and quizzes for other children.Â
After furthering our understanding of rivers, their features and terminology, children used various mediums to create a diorama of one of the famous rivers we had researched. The results were amazing and children really integrated their learning through the activity.

We looked at how historical events have impacted our current skyline for example the geographical changes between the stone age and now. We also researched these time periods and participated in a carousel activity and created PowerPoints to present our findings about the different eras in history.

Year 3 had a fantastic morning presenting their homework projects to the class; seeing what they had created was amazing! We had mosaics, information posters and even shields! We examined various Roman artefacts, analysing what the Romans might have used them for. We looked at different items, from a sponge on a stick to a Roman helmet with a plume. It was a great way to start our curiosity about Roman Britain!

In Year 3, the children loved showing their innovative projects off; we all learned some new facts about London and the Lake District! We had a wide range of projects from maps to quizzes and even replica computers!
We explored maps and videos to learn more about the physical and human geography of the United Kingdom before creating fact files based on the new knowledge. Did you know that Ben Nevis is taller than 14 Big Bens! The children were very excited to learn more about these two places and think about why the Lake District might be better to live in.
