Adventurers Class - Year 3
Welcome to Adventurers Class!
How might a costal settlement (Clevedon) change over time?
What are we learning about this term?
- Maths: The class will revisit our fractions topic at the start of the term. Following this, we will be learning about money and time. Any practical real-life situations will support their learning.
- Times Tables: we have a times table lesson most days. Each session includes learning a new multiplication fact, its related facts and carrying out a timed times table test. This term we will be doing multiples of 4.
- Writing: We will be looking at diary writing and features in narrative texts.
- Reading: After finishing off ‘The Iron Man’ we will be reading The Wild Robot by Peter Brown.
- Spelling: We will continue with our new Sounds and Syllables Scheme this term. Building on the phonetic rules and strengthening strategies to chunk and spell words. Please practice the spellings in the front of your child’s homework book also.
- Geography: we will be answering our topic question “How might a costal settlement (Clevedon) change over time?”. The class will look at features of costal towns and making note of how they change over time.
- DT: Summer is here and the class will be learning about eating seasonally.
- PE: We will have two weekly lessons (Thursday and Friday), our units this term will be rounders and dance.
- Science: We will continue our unit on light. Children will be learning that darkness is the absence of light and the different sources of light around us.
- Music: The class will be learning the Dragon song in a pop genre.
- Computing: we will be continuing our learning of emailing and moving on to branching databases.
- Religion and Worldviews: Our focus this unit is Christianity. We will look at the question ‘Christianity – what do Christians mean when they talk about the Kingdom of God?’
- PSHE: we will be learning about ‘Being my Best’.
- Spanish: we will be learning about the seasons.
Children will need their PE kits in school on Thursdays and Fridays to be able to fully participate in the lessons. Please make sure children have trainers for outdoor PE sessions. Homework will be sent home in a workbook on a Friday and collected in on a Wednesday to be marked. Reading books are checked every Monday. The children are asked to read at least 5 times a week and record it in their reading records.
