Welcome to Year 3!

What we are learning this term
In the Autumn Term, we will focus on our concept driven project ‘Is there beauty in everything ?’ Key concepts/vocabulary we will discuss and use to drive this project are beauty, protect, respect and community. In this project, we will look at our local environment studying through Art and DT.

In the Spring term, we will consider the question 'Are power and strength the same thing?'. The children study this question scientifically, through DT and also looking at the Stone Age in History.

In Summer, the children study Ancient Egypt considering 'Are we influenced by wealth?'. Children will learn about the way of life in the Ancient Egyptian time period and the hierarchy between people.

PE
Please read the school newsletter to see when our PE days are. Children must come into school wearing their PE kit on those days. Our school PE kit is a white polo shirt and black shorts with trainers or pumps. As the weather gets colder, the children are welcome to wear black jogging bottoms and a black jumper/their red school jumper.

Homework
Homework will be set on Friday to be completed by the following Wednesday. Ideally, we would love children to read everyday and be read to as often as possible to build up their vocabulary and understanding of texts. Spellings will be set and from time-to-time appropriate maths or further literacy set.
