Class Teacher

Welcome to the Year 3 class page!

Welcome to Year 3.

On behalf of all the staff in Year 3, welcome to our class page. This is where you will find all the information you need to know about what we will be doing this term.

 

 

In Year 3, we always try to make our learning enjoyable and engaging so that it's memorable. We also work hard in lessons to reach clearly defined objectives and produce work of increasingly high quality.

We recognise that in order to be successful in school, our children need support from both the home and school. A strong partnership with you will make a great difference in your child's education. 

If you ever have any questions or would like a chat about subjects or progress, please do not hesitate to ask.

Science

Animals Including Humans-By the end of this unity of study:

Pupils will know:identify that animals, including humans, need the right types and amount of nutrition, and that they cannot make their own food; they get nutrition from what they eat. They also learn how to identify that humans and some other animals have skeletons and muscles for support, protection and movement.

Light-By the end of this unity of study:

Pupils will recognise that they need light in order to see things and that dark is the absence of light; they notice that light is reflected from surfaces; and recognise that light from the sun can be dangerous and that there are ways to protect their eyes. Children learn how to recognise that shadows are formed when the light from a light source is blocked by an opaque object; and they find patterns in the way that the size of shadows change.
