Year 3
Welcome to the Spring Term in Year 3!
Maths
In Maths, we will be consolidating our learning of place value and operations from the Autumn term, with daily arithmetic questions. At the start of the term we will extending our multiplication and division knowledge by applying it to questions. After half term, we will start to learn about money, statistics, measurements and fractions. All children will be expected to revise their times tables at home daily.
English
Our class book for this term is ‘Romans on the Rampage’ by Jeremy Strong. In English, we will be using our class book as inspiration for writing a story with a historical setting. We will also be discussing and writing our own persuasive texts. Within all our writing, we will be working on a range of grammatical features including the use of fronted adverbials, expanded noun phrases and continuing to use a range of conjunctions to expand our sentences. Reading, spelling and handwriting will be practiced weekly.
Topic In History, we will be studying the Romans. We will be researching key events and exploring what happened during this time.
In Science, we will be investigating animals including humans. We will use our scientific skills to conduct experiments and discuss our findings.
