A reminder about online safety:

If you are working online, don’t forget to be safe and savvy! 

Never give personal information to anyone! Think about the safety of what you are sharing or posting if you are online or on your phone.

Do not share your school log-ins or change your log-in details. We won’t ask you to do that.

Make sure you are accessing online material that is relevant for your age and tell an adult at home if you come across something that is not suitable for you, or if someone is trying to contact/talk to you that is not someone you know.

You can contact your teacher through Seesaw if you feel vulnerable or worried, or contact Childline 0800 1111.

Year 3 - Elm Class Curriculum

English- We will start this half-term reading Pugs of the Frozen North by Philip Reeve and Sarah McIntyre. Throughout this unit, children will be taught to write poetry, enhance and improve their descriptive writing skills and write adverts. 

Maths- During the second half term we will be looking at multiplication and division. The children will still have access to their TTRockstars and Numbots accounts so any additional practise at home would be greatly appreciated!

R.E.- This half term, children will be looking at ‘What does it mean to follow God?’. We will be exploring the story of Noah’s Ark in greater detail and think about the promises made between God and Noah. We will link this in to promises made in marriage in our day to day lives.  

History- This half term we will continue with our history topic ‘Who Lived in Britain First’. We will be moving into the Bronze Age and finally the Iron Age. The children will learn about life in Ancient Britain including what people ate, where they lived and the tools they used. Our first set of Home Learning Challenges are be based on this topic and a copy is also available on the class page.
