Shooters Grove Primary School
Year 3
Welcome to Year 3!
Your teachers in Year 3 are Mrs Proffitt, Mr Smith and Miss MacPherson, supported by Mr Yeardley, Miss Greaves and Mrs Beard.
Our amazing themes in Year 3 are Ancient Egypt, Rescue, Amazing Authors and The Stone Age. We look forward to bringing these to life in the classroom and through our educational visits and visitors to school.
English
During Year 3, we will be looking closely at creating our own non- fiction book, writing letters and diary entries. We will also be developing our imaginative story writing and even producing newspaper articles about our school! We read a lot of fiction and non- fiction books and enjoy a range of class novels throughout the year.
Maths
Starting with place value and addition, we'll work through maths skills and become reasoning and problem solving experts. We will also learn about multiplication (3, 4 and 8 times tables to begin with) and division as well as fractions, shape and money. We will build up our times tables knowledge and solve tricky problems together.
Science
We will cover the following :
Rocks
Plants
Animals (including humans)
Forces and Magnets
Light
We will carry out a range of investigations and experiments to explore these areas using different equipment and materials.
Visits
Our first theme will be brought to life by an exciting visit from 'The History Van', learn more about Rescue with a 'hands on' experience by Mountain rescue and finally immerse yourself in Stone Age life by visiting Creswell Crags.
