Room 3 on the Move.

We love our fitness sessions outside. Some of the things we are working on are :
Space -awareness
Dodging 
Chasing
Swerving
Evading
Changing direction at speed
Co-operating with classmates 
Team -work.













 For many of us the past few weeks has been our first introduction to Skipping. There are lots of different steps to remember but we are making great progress. 





 We have also been involved in moveMprove every Monday in the school hall. After warming up we move in groups around different stations each offering activities designed to develop different skills.










 Our Inquiry into Chinese New Year has come to an end.We made beautiful lanterns, Ang Pow, horse masks (2014 is the Year of the Horse) and our own lion.The Lion dance is a form of traditional dance in Chinese culture in which performers mimic a lions movements  in a lions costume.The dance is usually performed during the Chinese New Year.






 More great work in Room 3.

Last term Room 3 had Performing Arts lessons each week. They learnt lots of different dances. On Friday, they shared one of the dances that they had learnt at the Full School Assembly. The audience sang as they did the dance. We hope you enjoy it!

  Diwali. We have been working hard during our Inquiry time learning about festivals and celebrations.The Indian festival of Diwali is centred around Light so we have been busy using our collage skills to create beautiful candles. Collage requires Patience and Perseverance. Well worth all the hard work though!! .     We also painted our own beautiful D iva's-  small candles which are placed around peoples homes during Diwali.   Lights welcome the New Year and create a happy festive atmosphere. Come into Room 3 and see what you think!

We are enjoying working with Mrs Hooke doing Performing Arts on a Thursday morning-moving to music and learning to make interesting shapes with our bodies. We also enjoyed having some time on Friday to construct models using old boxes,egg cartons etc.When describing our models we tried to think of interesting words. We spoke clearly and listened to each other.Some of the models were constructed in teams and we all co-operated together.    It's so enjoyable to work together. Well done Room 3!
