Hello everyone and welcome to Year 3! 

This is our class page where you can find information about what we are learning about and also any other information which maybe useful! 

The staff in Year 3 this year are Mrs Goff, Miss Baker, Mrs Shaw and Mrs Heath. 

Our topic for Summer Term is... 

Ancient Maya

We will be learning about Ancient Mayans and how they lived their lives and also comparing their way of life with our own. We will explore their beliefs and even their creation of a barbaric game where the loser loses their head!

LITERACY

In Literacy we are linking our Geography topic of rainforests to help us create stories from other cultures by using the film Rio as inspiration . We will also be looking at different types of poems, biographies, dicsussion texts and we will be creating a chapter from the book Esio Trot.  

For our class novel this term we are going to have a little class vote to see what we would all like to read :) .

Our maths units this term are: Fractions, Shape, Time, Money and Statistics.

Additional Information 

PE with Mr Boulton 

Our P.E days are Monday and Wednesday.   

The kit consists of black shorts, white t-shirts and trainers.  However, as we may go outside for PE this term please send your child with some black jogging bottoms as well. 

Please make sure that kit is brought in at the start of the week and we will send them home after P.E at the end of the half term for washing. 

A reminder that no earrings are allowed. 

Homework

Your child will receive homework every Monday due in the following Friday.

This includes: spellings which will either be written into their little red spelling books or on their bubble handwriting sheets; times tables, which will be in their little yellow books to complete one line a day and the children can practice on Times tables Rockstars; one page of either a literacy or maths work book (alternative weeks) or a task linked to another subject and reading three times a week.

Reading at home

It is super important to child reads at home as often as possible - preferably every day. In our class, every time your child reads at home, they will receive a tick on our chart. Once they have 10 ticks, they will get a prize!
