Parts of a Flower

This half term, Year Three have been learning about plants. There have been some great examples of their learning. Some students have taken their learning one step further and found a real plant to investigate!

Creative Plants

Working remotely, the children were asked to, "design your own creative plant that has the 4 main parts." Here are two of their responses: 

3CD Firework Poems

3CD Animal Writing (re-draft)

We worked really hard and edited and improved the first version of our animal writing. Click here to read them.

Hero the Cat

Year Three have been learning lots about animals and pet care.  Today, the children imagined that they were a cat called Hero who was rescued by Wood Green.  The children are beginning to learn about reading their work through and making improvements in green pen.  Tomorrow we will be producing a second draft.

Year Three were asked to write a descriptive paragraph containing:

7 nouns,               horses grass forest night trees mane hooves

6 verbs,                moving, running, sprinting galloping blowing following bolted

5 adjectives,         dead white black streak fast four blurry wild thudding

2 time adverbials, first, final third, secondly,

Here is Callum's writing:

 

One dark, eerie night, a group of wild horses stood motionless in the glowing moonlight. At first everything seemed calm and beautifully peaceful, but something was not quite right. Suddenly, something dark emerged from the gloomy forest yet it was just a farmer looking for some new horses. As quick as lightning, the horses turned and swiftly fled, galloping at top speed, their manes wildly flapping as they ran and their hooves thudding on the dead grass beneath them. Eventually, they slowed their pace and came to a stop beyond the forest having finally outrun the dark figure from the forest. Everything was calm and peaceful, or was it?
