Rub Burrows Class - Autumn Term 2025
Children in Need
Non Fiction Text
Year 3 are learning all about non fiction texts and non chronological reports in our writing lessons. We’ve loved finding out facts about Pangolins. Did you know that when they feel threatened they curl up in a ball and make a foul smell to scare off predators?
We are finding out about the features of the non chronological texts and on Friday we explored what a glossary is and created our own using dictionaries. We found definitions of relevant words and recorded these in our books.
Textile Art Work
Year 3 have been exploring textile art work. The children have explored how artists such as Alice Kettle combine media and use them in unusual ways to make art. They used paint to create a background on fabric, mixing colours to create different tints which reflected an Antarctic landscape.
Working Hard!
Year 3 have been busy working hard. We’ve been acting and writing stories, working on our math skills and exploring colours.
Keep up your super work Year 3!
An Excellent Start!
Rob burrows class (Year 3) have had an excellent start to their new journey in key stage 2. Mrs Whittle and Mrs Lodge have been really proud of how hard they have worked and how brilliantly they have behaved.
To start the year we have been creating some poetry around the theme of the sound collector. After exploring the poem we decided to create our own poems called the ‘Colour Collector’ which were all about a stranger who came to our school to take away our colours. We went on a colour hunt around school to support our writing. Well done Year 3, you’ve produced some excellent work already!
