Summer Term

Year 3 is led by Cath Greenall, Cathy Hinkins and Lauren Aspinwall, the class teachers, along with the help and support of Sue Storey, Carole Quill, Jo Fahy-Coward and Cathy Noble.   

This term we are studying Mighty Mountains, learning map skills and how to orienteer as our main Geography topics. In Science we will be continuing with our forces and magnetism unit before moving onto plants. Maths we see us explore fractions, shape and measures. Our main focus this term in English is to write a narrative around the book ‘The Firework Maker’s Daughter’ by acclaimed author Philip Pullman. We will also look at persuasive writing with an environmental focus. In PSHE we will continue to practice the 5 ways of wellbeing and learn about why we need to eat well and look after our teeth.

This term we will also begin our swimming lessons; our swimming session is on Tuesday mornings. PE will continue to take place on a Tuesday afternoon as normal.
