Year 3

Welcome to Year 3!

The class teacher in Year 3 is Ms Brown apart from on Wednesday morning when the children will have Spanish lessons and Outdoor P.E. We are lucky to be supported by our lovely TA Mrs Woodbridge. Our PE days are Wednesday and Thursday so please come into school in your PE kit on these days.

We have some exciting topic days and trips planned for the year so I am looking forward to lots of creative learning. Please encourage your child to bring in any books or objects of interest that relate to our topic as we would love to share them with the class.

Our topics for this year are:

Topic Title	*Focus*	Science Title	*Subject*
Through the ages	History – Stone Age to Iron Age	Keeping Healthy	Diet, muscles, bones

At the beginning of each term your child will be given a pick and mix homework sheet, it is expected that all children should complete at least three of these activities each term.
