Egyptian Explorers

Year 3's summer term theme is called 'Egyptian Explorers' where we will be learning all about Ancient Egypt! We have already created incredible pyramid shape poetry, and next we will be writing a non-chronological report all about the River Nile. In history, we will be finding out about how important the River Nile was to people in Ancient Egypt. We will also be learning about Tutankhamun and why he is such a significant Pharoah. On 1st May we will be taking part in a whole day's Egyptian workshop, exploring the role of Egyptologists!

Year 3 loved completing a science enquiry looking at how rocks change over time. They used sugar cubes as rocks, toothpicks as humans, sandpaper as wind and water as rain. They looked at which caused the strongest erosion, humans caused the least and rain caused the most.
