This Term's Topics
RomansPlantsMultiplication and DivisionRelationships
Welcome to the Summer term in year 3! We hope you enjoyed the Easter break and are refreshed and ready for this final term in year 3.
Our topic this term is the Romans. The children will learn about what life was like during the Roman period, investigate things they created and that we still use today and we will be going on a school trip to Vindolanda and the Roman Army Museum.
In English, our writing will focus on the book 'Fatal Fire' by Terry Deary.
This term in Maths we will be focusing on multiplication and division, time and fractions.
Our PE day is on a Thursday. Please ensure that your child brings their full PE kits on this day (black shorts/tracksuit bottoms, PE t-shirt, trainers or black plimsols) in a bag.
The children will be given a homework grid with a wide range of activities centred around the topic of the term. We would ask them to complete three activities this term and bring their completed homework in. The children will also have a weekly spelling list and a times table activity (focusing on a particular times table each week).
Please encourage your children to read regularly at home. Try to ensure that they read to an adult at home at least 3 times per week and record this in their reading record.
