Welcome back Year 3 we hope you had a lovely half term break.
This half term, we will be starting our new topic ‘Why were the Ancient Greeks ruled by their Gods?’ This will be our focus in our History and Art lessons. In Science, we will be learning about the human body and investigating this enquiry question, ‘Why could Usain Bolt run so fast?’. We will also be starting our new RE topic, ‘Called to Change’.
In Maths, we will be starting our Money topic so please discuss and get your child to help you count money out and check the change when out shopping to allow them a chance to use the skills they will be learning.
We have attached some links to knowledge mats, which detail what we will be learning. Please take the time to read through these with your child.

We hope you all had a lovely, restful Christmas break and are looking forward to 2022.
This half term, we will be continuing our work on Sir Titus Salt as part of our History lessons and will also be carrying on learning about Light and Shadows in our Science lessons. We will be starting our new RE topic, which focuses on Jesus the Teacher. In Maths, we will be continuing to learn our times tables as we will shortly be introducing the children to short multiplication and division. Therefore, it is crucial that your child regularly accesses TT Rockstars to ensure they become fluent with their times tables and related division facts.

Year 3’s P.E. day will be on a Thursday afternoon. Please send your child in their P.E. kits and please make sure they bring a water bottle.
Your child will receive a reading book to take home and a reading record book. Please make sure you listen to your child read every day and record the name of the book, page number and any comments about their reading. We have a reading reward system in class where your child will receive a prize for completing their reading at home.
Thank you for your support with this.
If you need to speak with your class teacher then our doors are always open.
