Welcome to Year 3! 

Our learning this week -  Autumn Term

English

We have started our immersion activities around the book Arthur and the Golden Rope. It's a myth story based in the Viking age about an unlikely hero who has to battle a giant wolf. We've been making predictions, reviewing the vocab and writing sentences using these words. 

Maths

This week, we've started our Place Value topic. We've been reviewing how to identify and write numbers up to 100, as well as making 2 digit numbers using 10s and 1s. The children have also all successfully logged into their Magma Maths questions using their QR codes. 

Science

Today we started our Habitats topic. We went outside to explore what objects we could find. They then had to categorise all of them according to Living / Non Living / Used to be alive. We had a good discussion about what makes an object alive e.g. does it move by itself? Does it reproduce? Does it breathe? Does is respond to its environment?

History

We have been learning about where the Vikings originated from and what motivated them to travel so far. We've also been finding out that Vikings weren't just vicious warriors but also successful farmers and tradespeople. 

As well as the above, we're doing PE, RE, PSHE, French and Guided Reading, tying in with our topic theme, where possible. 

Our PE days are Mon and Wed. 

Our value this term is thankfulness.
