From October half term onwards, optional extended home learning challenges will be set half termly on the Year 3 class page on the school website.

Each half term, children will be given a photo, picture or maybe an open-ended question or specific topic related to our WAC or Science unit. Children can then be as creative as they like to create a piece (or pieces) of work in any style that they want related to the task set. There is no right or wrong answer - we are just hoping to encourage and develop creativity and independence.

Examples of work could be: a poem, a piece of art work, a 3D model, a report, a story, a fact file, a video, a song, interview someone of relevance...the possibilities are endless!

In the last week of each half term, time will be given to celebrate the work created by the children who take part.

Autumn 2

This half term we would like our Year 3 project to be based on our WAC Rivers unit of learning.

Use the picture above as a stimulus. You can write a poem, story, create a piece of art work, create a 3D model from Lego or papier mâché etc. You could even write a song or piece of music based on the journey of a river! Be as creative as you like but have fun!
