Place Value – Reading and writing numbers and numerals up to 1000, recognise the value of each digit in a three digit number. The children will also be finding 10 and 100 more or less than a given number. |
Science |
The Human Body - Children will learn about voluntary and involuntary muscles and their purpose. They will learn that some muscles, like our heart, move without us consciously thinking about it, but other muscles require us to command them to move. Moving forward with their understanding, children will look in more detail at the skeletal system, building on prior knowledge and elaborating through studying names of bones, joints and their function. Plants - Children will learn about cycles in nature. They will study patterns, trends and cycles that occur throughout the seasons, in the life of plants and in the life of animals. Children will understand that the tilt of the earth creates our seasons. They will look closely and observe changes in the seasons in their own environment. Children will think scientifically about the changes to plants through the seasons, how the increased hours of sunshine in the summer help plants to gain the necessary energy to grow bigger. |

Year 3 Class Blog
Welcome to the year 3 ‘Class Blog’! We hope you enjoy a sneaky peak into our school day
We started our day with our guided reading session, followed by our English lesson exploring persuasive writing looking at the ‘dragon catcher’. We are proud of our hard work with our writing and presentation of handwriting!
We created art work linked to our persuasive writing. We love being creative and I hope you agree, we are a VERY talented and artistic class!
Our class saint this year is St Vincent de Paul. We picked him because of the compassion and humility he showed to others. We will offer prayers to him each day and hope he guides us this year. We researched and wrote fact files along with some more art dedicated to him
Finally, we had a great session during PE learning to rules to a new ball game called tchoukball (fun to play, hard to spell!). We loved it! Cant wait to learn more about this game in our next session
