This week, year three gold has had lots of fun!

On Wednesday we visited the Natural History Museum and we had an amazing time! The first thing we did was complete a booklet we were given. We had to answer some questions on rocks, minerals, and metals. We also saw some fantastic fossils and bones. One of them was a gigantic dinosaur called a Diplodocus. We also learnt about earthquakes and went into a terrifying room where the floor began to shake so we could understand what an earthquake feels like. There was also a huge room full of shiny, sparkly and sharp crystals!

In our literacy this week, we have been learning about Kenning poems. Kenning poems use two word lines that describe a certain thing. We made our own Kenning poems in our groups. We then made our own ones by ourselves. We used verbs, adjectives, nouns and adverbs. In R.E we are leaning about Islam. We learnt about the five pillars of Islam and looked at mosques.

We also have some general news! On Monday, we celebrated George's birthday. He brought in some home made delicious smartie cookies. They were yum. Today, it's Micheal's birthday and we are going to celebrate it this afternoon with some treats that he has brought in. We're so excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
