WELCOME TO YEAR 3

Meet the team

Both classes in year 3 have a library day on Thursday and PE is on a Friday.

Summer Term

What have we done this term to make us proud?

This term we have completed tests in Reading and maths and all tried extremely hard! We have visited the Arboretum to look at the local area. We represented the school really well with our manners and our understanding of road safety. We all participated in Sports Day where we all reached our personal goals and showed amazing team work.

 What have we been learning about this term?

This term we have been learning about Baghdad 900AD and its incredible history. We found out that Baghdad 900AD was far more advanced than any European city. We have also learned about magnetism, what materials are magnetic or not. We also created a magnetic game in DT which we shared with year 1. Mr Islam and Mrs Malique shared with us their personal experiences from their pilgrimages to Mecca. As well as this we now know all about balanced diets. Our teachers are really proud of the progress we have made in these topics. 

What will we be learning about in the Autumn term?

Mini-adventures:

We will be learning all about Ancient Baghdad, how and why it was built and the impact it has had. What makes a place sacred and Shadows. 

Maths:

We will become confident in using our 3,4 and 8 times tables. We will also be consolidating our understanding of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. This will then help us to solve problems that involve these four operations. We will also have a better understanding of three digit numbers. 

 English:

We will be focusing on using the correct tense and becoming more independent at using the appropriate punctuation consistently in our writing. We will also be looking at a range of texts and their specific features.
