Hello and welcome to Year 3!
Year 3 is a very important step for the children as they move from Key Stage 1 into Key Stage 2. Whilst in Year 3, the children are encouraged to develop their independence and to become active, mature learners.
We have a very exciting and engaging curriculum in Year 3, where we will explore various texts in English such as The BFG and Cloudbusting, learning how to play a brass instrument with Wigan Music Service and in History we delve into the past to discover Ancient Egypt!
Throughout their time in Year 3, all children are encouraged to try their best and to show off their individual talents and skills. We work hard to support the children to enable them to flourish and reach their full potential. Above all, we aim to ensure that all children feel valued and have an enjoyable and successful year in Year 3.
In the summer term we will be reading “The Wild Robot” and our writing will focus on biographies. We will be doing lots of research about Sir David Attenborough and write our own biography about him. In Science we are learning about plants and what they need for survival. Our Geography topic will see us learn about Climate zones ands how they are different around the world.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to speak to the Year 3 staff and we will be more than happy to help. We value the contribution you make in your child’s learning and feel that working in partnership together helps us to provide the best education that we can for your child.
