Year 3 (3TS & 3AY)
Welcome Back
Welcome back to school. We hope you have all had a great Summer and are now looking forward to the year ahead
Autumn Challenge
We are setting the challenge of finding out more about a country in Europe and creating a poster or model to show what you learn.
Swimming
Mr Yates class will be going swimming this half term on a Wednesday afternoon.
P.E.
PE will be on Thursday afternoon and children need to make sure they have footwear and kit suitable for outside activities.
Mathletics
Log-ins for Mathletics will be coming soon, then you can get involved online.
Spelling
Spelling lists will follow soon. Please help your child learn these as it really helps with their reading and writing independence.
Reading
Please continue to read at home and make sure your child brings their book to school every day.
A tour of Europe
Our focus book this half term is about the adventures of a lost teddy who travels around Europe and sends messages home about the places he sees and the things he does.
Geography
Our Geography focus is on using maps and atlases, finding different European countries and learning more about them in terms of people, places and language. We will write our own postcards using photos and videos to inspire us. We will also plan a holiday and try to persuade Mr Jenkins to let us go!
Science
In Science we are going to look more closely at a range of flowering plants and talk about how they are different and what they need to survive.
Maths
In Maths we will be learning more about place value and completing tasks involving addition, subtraction, multiplication and division including using money. We will talk more about the properties of shapes and look for them in the environment.
Commando Joe
In year 3 children get the chance to do PE sessions with Commando Joe, something that they all look forward to and really enjoy.
