Year 3 2023 - 2024

On this page you will find information about Summer Term in Year 3. 

Our teaching assistant is Mrs Wrigley and Mrs Tam is our midday assistant. 

In Geography we will be continuing learning more about marvellous maps and improving our knowledge of Human and Physical Geography. We will also begin our History topic about Ancient Egypt.

Our Science learning will be about Plants and Light. 

In Maths we will learn about mass and capacity, fractions, money, time, shape and statistics. Each morning we complete morning work on our K.I.R.F. (Key Instant Recall Fact).

There will be daily guided reading sessions and we encourage you to read at least a couple of pages of your home reading book each evening with your adult at home, please make sure you bring your reading book and reading record into school each day, too. 

In English we will be reading and responding to the book Grandpa Chatterji, as well as developing our writing recounts. 

In R.E. our work will focus on Our Parish Church and Being a Christian. Those children participating in the sacramental programme will make their First Holy Communion on Saturday 11th May at St Paul's Church and we look foward to celebrating this momentous occasion with our Year 3 families.  

P.E. days will be Wednesdays and Thursdays.

Homework will be in the form of a menu to be sent out at the start of the term. Please continue to practice on TTRS as well as make use of the Spelling League log ins provided in reading records.

There is plenty more information about the curriculum on our year group curriculum page https://www.st-pauls-hyde.tameside.sch.uk/page/curriculum-information/5603
