Class 3
Mrs Spencer
Hello from Class 3
Our theme for the next half term will be 'Around the world in 80 days' and will have a Geography theme following on from Europe but spreading further.
Last half term Class 3 were working on a theme on the book Bewilderwood.
The children used the idea of creatures living in Bewilderwood as inspiration to create creatures that may live in Diggle School grounds. They then built their homes in Forest School working as a group and using their resourcefulness to find materials and reasoning skills to reach compromises whilst thinking about ideas.
This is a photo of Class 3 when they participated in Oldham's Choral Speaking event at the Oldham Coliseum and were awarded Honours for their poems 'The Ning Nang Nong' by Spike Miligan and Mr Nobody by Anon.

Last half term Class 3 were learning about Europe. We took a different country each week, learning about France, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, Russia and the UK. We plotted geographical physical features such as rivers and mountains on maps along with the capital city from each country, producing a key to accompany these. We also researched human features for some of the countries; such as the Eiffel Tower in Paris, France and La Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, Spain.
As part of our theme, we studied artists from each country. We looked at some of their styles and used these to inspire our own art work. We also enjoyed looking at some of the cultures from the countries and making or tasting some of the foods associated with them.
