On Wednesday both Emerald Class and Green Class ventured down to Sir John Soane’s Museum. Sir John Soane, an architect born in the 1700s, was known for his beautiful buildings that used light, shadows, and reflections to create unique designs. With this in mind, the Year 3s took part in 3 activities across the visit that consolidated their understanding of new, challenging vocabulary as well as seeing the beauty that light and shadow can bring to spaces. This all linked perfectly to this term’s Science topic, ‘Light and Shadows’.
The children were also lucky enough to spend some time with Ms Sophia in the school’s garden area, planting daffodil bulbs and learning about why leaves change colour in the autumn. They have now taken their planted bulbs home, to nurture whilst they grow!
