Good morning Year 3! Let’s take a look at what we are going to be learning about today!
| Thank you to all the Year 3 working hard at home! We have really enjoyed reading your work and we love how you have embraced the challenges. Here is some of yesterday's learning by Rayan R, Surah, Zakariya, Yusuf, Sahra and Maryam K. | |
9-9.30: PE with Joe
Lesson 1: Science
1. Today, we are going to continue learning about light.
This week, we are going to be learning about reflection. Light travels in straight lines. When light hits an object, it is reflected (bounces off) and enters our eyes. This is how we see an object.

Poor light reflectors have dark- or dull-coloured surfaces.
2. Look around your home and find some good and poor light reflectors. Draw and label your drawings.
What do you notice? How would you describe a good light reflector?
3. Something Extra
