# Practising Scissor Skills Year 3

  ![](https://files.schudio.com/scotforth-st-paul-s-cofe-primary-nursery-school/images/blog/IMG_9554.jpeg)   17 September 2026   [Mrs Redmayne](https://www.scotforth-st-pauls.lancs.sch.uk/blog/author/jredmayne)   [Class of 2023](https://www.scotforth-st-pauls.lancs.sch.uk/blog/category/class-of-2023)

One of the skills we have been practising as we start Year 3 is cutting carefully using scissors. We tried cutting lots of different shaped lines and then used templates to draw and cut shapes. We then worked in pairs to make collages. It was lots of fun and helped us to get neater and more careful!
