Year 3 Walk in Croissy-sur-Seine
Two Year 3 classes went on an amazing field trip to Croissy-sur-Seine.
They used geography skills to read their maps to follow the route and then labelled features on the map.
They practised French language skills by translating the types of shops into English and also when purchasing their snack at the ‘boulangerie’.
They also used maths skills when paying for their tasty treats by choosing the correct money and checking to make sure that they had received the correct change.
In Croissy town centre we mixed maths and human geography to make a frequency table and tally chart based on a 5 minute traffic survey.
We then arrived at Parc Chanorier and were given a guided tour of both the art and history museums there. Though small, they were both fascinating and we learned a lot about our local history and more about The Impressionist painters.
After a picnic lunch, the children practised their own drawing and sketching skills and then embarked upon the long walk back along the river path. What an adventurous day!
