Autumn Term – Land Ahoy!

Throughout the Autumn term, children will explore the life, times and adventures
of Tudor explorers. Alongside this, children will be given the opportunity to write
creatively and take inspiration from stories such as Treasure Island.

Spring Term – Veni! Vidi! Vici!

Throughout the Spring term, children will investigate the history and geography
of Roman Britain. We plan to inspire the children through exposure to real life
artefacts and exploration of the Roman world around us.

Summer Term – I’m A Mayan: Get Me Out Of Here!

Throughout the Summer term, children will travel to the rainforests of the world.
We will discover how the rainforest is formed, what creatures live there, the
conditions of these tropical areas and how the rainforest helps us live our lives.
We will learn about the Mayan culture and take the opportunity to taste and
cook with foods from these exotic regions of the world.

Weekly Spellings

In Year 3, children will be learning their spellings at school so will no longer be taking spellings home to practice. Children will participate in Spellings Workshops four times each week and will work in groups that provide an appropriate level of challenge for them. Teaching of spellings and spelling patterns will follow a pattern of: Teach; Practice; Apply; Test. If you have any questions about this new approach to spellings, please see a member of the Year 3 teaching team.
