Cromer Road Primary School

 

Year 3

 

Dear Families,

Welcome back! We hope you all had a wonderful half-term break and are ready for an exciting final half term in Year 3. We are incredibly proud of all the children's hard work this year and look forward to ending the year with lots of engaging learning experiences.

This half term, Year 3 will continue to explore a range of exciting topics across the curriculum. In English, we will be using the beautiful texts Mirror by Jeannie Baker and The Ice Bear by Jackie Morris to inspire setting descriptions, letters, narratives and newspaper reports. In Maths, we will be learning about properties of shape, including angles and 2D and 3D shapes, before moving on to mass and capacity.

In Geography, we will investigate the question Can We Hold Back the Tide?, exploring flooding and the ways people protect communities from its impact. In Science, we will learn all about plants, including their structures, what they need to grow and how water is transported through them. In RE, we will be learning about the Muslim pilgrimage to Makkah and considering whether completing a pilgrimage makes a person a better Muslim. We will also be developing our design and technology skills by creating moving mechanisms using levers and linkages.

Our school value this half term is Respect. We will encourage the children to show respect for everyone, celebrating our differences and understanding that we can value others even when we do not always agree. 

Please see below for the curriculum letter and homework grid. Homework supports learning in school, so we encourage children to complete activities regularly. All resources will be available on Google Classroom.

We look forward to a busy and enjoyable final half term!

Kind regards,

Miss Carroll and Miss Rzesna
