Club 144 Meeting: The Egg Drop Challenge!
We explored the physics of dropping an egg from a height of 3 metres. We worked out that we needed to:
Increase the time over which the egg was brought to rest.
Decrease the egg's velocity at the time of the crash.
Milka, Caoimhin, Olivia and William won the challenge. They succeeded in protecting their egg, designing a parachute with padding to absorb some of the force of the impact. Well done to them!
Using apparatus helps us in Maths

- Diving into Shakespeare with the 'Macbeth' English and drama project.
- A visit from the very talented Young Shakespeare Company (their performance last year was fantastic).
- PE in the park while the weather is good (keep your fingers crossed!).
- More members of the class gaining membership to my 'Club 144' times table collective. Remember, you will have a quiz every week.
- Art lessons in our new art classroom.
- Our Tudors history topic.
- Tudor cookery with Etain.
- Starting our class novel, the very funny 'My Best Fiend' by Sheila Lavelle.
- Getting to know everyone in my new class and finding out all about you and what interests you.
A detailed map of this term's curriculum will be published next week.

Welcome to Year 3, class of 2018 - 2019!
Lots of little beings with a personality,
Each a little different and a little like me.
Lots of little beings like stars in the sky,
Each one has a different little twinkle in its eye.
Lots of little beings like leaves on a tree,
Hanging all together in a being family.
Lots of little beings like peas in a pod,
Being all together, being loved by God.

SNOW DAY FUN
Hi everybody
Hope you are all enjoying the snow and ice. I have attached some work for you to do if you find yourself at a loose end.
You can choose which comprehension exercises you want to do. You will see that some are easier than others. You don't need to download/print the documents. You can just use paper to write the answers or do your Snow Day writing.
If you want to plan a story involving snow, you can write your story when we return to school.
You don't need to do everything that I have attached. I just thought I'd give you some choice.
Stay safe.
Snow Day
We have signed up to one of the most successful short story writing competitions in the world!, BBC Radio 2's 500 WORDS. Budding young writers are asked to submit a 500-word story on any topic with the six winners having their story read out on air by a celebrity! The deadline for the story is Thursday 22nd February. The link attached ( BBC Radio 2 500 words ) gives some ideas to help your child get their story written over half-term. Any child that would like to enter the competition should hand their story to their teacher on Monday 19th February, the first day back after half-term, to be checked over. The children will be given the opportunity to upload their story onto the website at school before the deadline. The competition is not compulsory

Year 1's Pirate Banquet!!
Gunnersbury Triangle Nature Reserve
Cooking a Filipino snack - Turon
We made a Filipino snack called Turon. Turon is a Philippine snack made of thinly sliced bananas, dusted with brown sugar, rolled in a spring roll wrapper and fried.
Traditional Philippine Dance- Tinikling
Tinikling is a traditional Philippine dance which originated during the Spanish colonial era. The dance involves two people beating, tapping, and sliding bamboo poles on the ground and against each other in coordination with one or more dancers who step over and in between the poles in a dance.
Everybody in Year 1 had the chance to either dance or clap the bamboo poles! It was tricky but everybody gave it a good go! Well done Year 1!
International Week
This week, we have been learning all about the Philippines. Today we had the opportunity to try on some traditional Filipino costumes.
Laudato Si' week in Year 1
This week we have been learning about how we can respond to Pope Francis' letter Laudato Si'. We have placed a particular focus on recycling. We have learnt how to sort our rubbish so that we waste less, we have learnt how to identify what items can be recycled, we have made place mats entirely out of used plastic bags and we have also brought in our own mini recycling projects! They have been amazing!
Remember: Reduce, reuse, recycle!
Thank you Emily (Year 6) for inspiring the school to create Friendship Benches! What a fantastic idea!
