Year 3 Granby Bake Off!

Could you be the next Paul Hollywood? Or maybe you’re more of a Mary Berry?

On Friday 18th May we’re holding a Granby Bake Off in celebration of the Royal Wedding.

If you’d like to take part in the bake off, then you’ll need to make a scrummy cake! You can make it as simple or as detailed as you like but please

don’t include nuts!

Please include a list of ingredients with your cake.

Bring it in a suitable, named container.

Your creation will need to be brought in for the morning of May 18th and it will be entered into the Year 3 Granby Bake Off competition. This will be judged and prizes awarded for the winning cake from each class.

We look forward to seeing your amazing creations!

The Year 3 team.

Geography experts- today in 3M we have been comparing data about rivers of the world. We found where the equator was, the Northern and Southern Hemisphere, continents and even the tropic of Cancer and Capricorn. We then found an atlas to search for rivers in different countries.

Problem Solving

 

wow! what a fabulous lesson we had today! I thoroughly enjoyed sharing this problem with 3M. Do you remember the problem whereby there was a fox, farmer, chicken, a bag of grain and a boat and they all needed to get across the river? In what order should they go so that the chicken does not eat the grain and the fox does not eat the chicken? 

3M tried desperately to solve it using many methods. no Well done.

We had a fantastic morning being shown around some of the food areas of Tesco.

Wow! We watched a lady filleting a mackerel. 

How to prepare a mackerel!

We tasted cheeses, we tasted fruit and we found which fruits and vegetables come from the UK. 

3M were all excellently behaved! 

A great morning! 

Maths

A busy maths lesson was enjoyed learning the place value of each digit.

Staying Safe Online

 

1)      Don’t post any personal information online – like your address, email address or mobile number.

2)      Think carefully before posting pictures or videos of yourself.  Once you’ve put  a picture of yourself online most people can see it and may be able to download it, it’s not just yours anymore.

3)      Keep your privacy settings as high as possible

4)      Never give out your passwords

5)      Don’t befriend people you don’t know

6)      Don’t meet up with people you’ve met online.  Speak to your parent or carer about people suggesting you do

7)      Remember that not everyone online is who they say they are

8)      Think carefully about what you say before you post something online

9)      Respect other people’s views, even if you don’t agree with someone else’s views doesn’t mean you need to be rude

10)   If you see something online that makes you feel uncomfortable, unsafe or worried: leave the website, turn off your computer if you want to and tell a trusted adult immediately.
