Year 3 have enjoyed participating in our first Empathy Day! We have created Super Power glasses for Empathy, discussed feelings and emotions and created friend ship chains! EmpathyLabUK #wbjspshce William Barcroft Junior School

Y3 DT - The Great Bread Bake Off. We've started our new DT project by learning about the history of bread, researching Warburtons and most importantly - tasting a range of breads! #wbjsdt William Barcroft Junior School

Y3 English - At the end of our latest BIG WRITE ( a setting description based on 'Marcy and the Riddle of the Sphinx) , we spent time peer assessing with our 'check specs' on - looking for the 'best' and 'better' sentences. #wbjsenglish William Barcroft Junior School

Y3 Computing - We started learning about 'branching databases' today. We began with understanding 'yes or no' questions, choosing attributes to sort groups then created a branching database of dinosaurs! #wbjscomputing William Barcroft Junior School

Celebrating footballing success in Year 3 - well done! 🏆🌟William Barcroft Junior School

Y3 History- 'How did the Ancient Egyptians mummify?' We role played being embalmers to create our own mummies - complete with precious amulets! Then we were able to sequence the process - which will be turned into a set of instructions. #wbjshistory William Barcroft Junior School

Y3 Maths - drawing bar charts. Some of us found it helpful to create the bar chart physically first. #wbjsmaths William Barcroft Junior School

Y3 Science - identifying and classifying different seeds according to how they are dispersed, using the acronym BEEFFS to remember them (Blow, Eat, Explode, Float, Fall, Stick). Then we investigated how sycamore seeds 'twirl' by making our own! #wbjsscience William Barcroft Junior School

Y3 Computing - we had great fun creating branching databases on j2data - have another go at home and impress everyone with your computing skills! #wbjsict #wbjscomputing William Barcroft Junior School

Kneading our dough as part of our bread making process for DT day

Stage 3 - tasting and judging. Our bread looked and tasted amazing (well mostly!!). Paul Hollywood (aka Mrs Rayner) was a fantastic judge and chose a worthy winner. As all good designers we evaluated our finished product. #wbjsdt William Barcroft Junior School Harbour Learning Trust

Y3 Art Day - Today we are learning about the artist Keith Haring. First, we recapped the artists we'd studied so far this year, before discussing the style and key features of Haring's artwork in a 'walk and talk' task. William Barcroft Junior School #wbjsart
