What We Are Learning About - Summer 2
In Religion, through the topic of Pentecost the children will be thinking about the strength of the Holy Spirit. We will learn about this through the conversation of Saul, letters from Paul and the Road to Emmaus.
Maths
In Maths, we will be looking at learning how to tell the time. We will be doing this through Roman Numerals to 12 and telling the time to 5 minutes and to the minute. The children will also be finding out how to read time on a digital clock and how to use a.m. and p.m. correctly.
Useful Maths Websites:
English
In English, we will be looking at a fiction book called 'Bee and Me'. The children will learn about how Bees pollinate and will think about the problems that Bees could encounter along the way. The writing outcome at the end of this writing journey will be an adventure story about how a bee pollinates a plant.
Useful English Websites:
Science
In Science, the children will work scientifically on a variety of quick investigations and longer tasks to learn about Plants. Within in this topic the children will discover the parts of a plant and what their jobs are.
Geography
In Geography, the children will be learning about the British coastline and what can be found there such as cliffs, rocks, sand dunes and the strand line.
What You Need to Know
Please send your child in their PE kit on the days they do PE. For Y3K this will be on a Monday and a Thursday. For Y3C it will be on a Monday and a Wednesday.
PE kit is a plain white t-shirt with dark trainers or pumps, and blue or black shorts. Plain black or blue tracksuit bottoms may be worn in the winter.
Homework will be given on Fridays to reflect the week’s learning, in Maths, spellings and handwriting. We recommend spending no more than 20 - 30 minutes on homework per night. Children will also practise spellings and take part in the Grand Spell each week.
Please check this page regularly as we will be posting updates on there as well as the school website.
Please make sure that aside from completing homework, your child is reading for a minimum of 10 minutes every night. If you have any concerns about your child’s homework, please speak to Mrs Coyle or Mr Kendrick
