Year 3 Creative Environments

Year 3 have been looking at creative environments. We started out by exploring the creative spaces at Meadowbank School.
We were given the opportunity by Mr Aukett and Mr Ayson to design a creative marble run to improve an area at our school.
We spent three weeks going to one of the five different creativity classes. These were Science, Printing, Sculpture, Painting and Multimedia. We got to choose which one we went to.
After the creativity classes we got into groups of five with one person from each workshop to share our learning and design a creative marble run together.
When we finished them we invited our parents into see what we have been learning this term. Here’s a video of our learning in creativity.

Shape

Our Stand in Maths this term is Shape. This week we have been learning about 2D and 3D shapes and their attributes. We have also been looking at different transformations. This is where a shape can slide, turn, or flip. We created tessellations showing how shapes can fit together without any gaps or overlaps. Here are some pictures of our creations!
