Our Wow Day!

We had a brilliant time this week

when Charlie came into school

and showed us how to make a

Tudor House.

We made a poor man's house, which

was a third smaller than real life.

Using a frame and willow we made

the walls to the house.

We put the dwarf wall down in the rich man's house.

We learnt how to thatch a roof with willow.

Charlie showed us how the poor man's house

was made and how to split the wood.

We made the slate roof and the thatched roof.

We took it in turns to make wooden pegs using the bodger.

We had to work as a team to build the house.

We were really pleased with the house!

We put mud and sand mixed together on the

willow to make the walls.

Well done year 3.

You worked really well as a team.

After school we were really happy to show

our parents what we had done.

We all thought it was brilliant.

What a brilliant first week back!

In Literacy we wrote our stories

based on Goldilocks and the Three Bears.

King Tut and The Mummy Family!

We told the story in our circle.

On Wednesday we did our class assembly

and in the afternoon for our families.

After our assembly we showed our parents our

cats and posters.

We then had the Mummy Challenge!

In our groups we had to mummy a

mummy or a daddy!

We had to use al the toilet roll

and work as a team.

Fantastic results!

Thanks to the Mums and Dads, who

volunteered to be a mummy

And thanks to you all for

coming and celebrating our work.

We really had a good time.
