Yr3 Curriculum Update – 12/01/18

Working together to achieve success for every child

 

A quick welcome back!

We have only been back a week but already the kids are deep into their learning.

 

The Unit of Inquiry:

Earth’s resources are limited and are not accessible to everyone

This is the Resource Tree.  As each day passes we remove three leaves.  When do you think it will start to look like it is running low?

We are now half way through the Sharing the planet Unit of Inquiry and the learner sare focussing on an area of personal interest.

Some are learning about what it means to live without fresh water whilst others are learning how important good forestry is, as we struggle to produce enough lumber and paper.

 

Maths

We are investigating multiplication and division.  Please practice the 2, 3, 4, 5 and 10 times tables at home.

 

English

The children are learning how to write a factual report and formal letters.  WE are also focussed on persuasive language

 

Coming Up

On Monday the children will begin using a “soft start” to the school day.

What this means is that after 8.15 they will be able to go up to their classroom and start preparing themselves for the day

 

Remember

Should you have any queries please, do contact us via our school emails.
