Year 3

Year 3 have been discovering what their new history topic is. Archaeologists use a number of methods to help discover, examine and record the secrets of the past. A great way to understand more about humans from history is to learn what they ate, so we dissected a fake human poo.  Using special equipment, we uncovered evidence about the eating and living habits of humans through the ages, deciding if our poo is Roman, Viking or Tudor. Studying the evidence, we decided that the poo is from the Roman period because it contained grains, stones and melon seeds. 
On Tuesday, Year 3 walked in the rain to Honiton Community College to take part in a gymnastics workshop run by some of the older students. Many new skills were learnt and lots of fun was had by all!
