Autumn 1

Welcome to KS2 and to Year 3.

We have a busy and exciting half term ahead!

Our topic this half term is Ancient Greece. In English, we will be writing a Greek God character description and also reading some Greek Myths, and then writing our own Greek myth by following a similar story structure. Towards the end of the half term we will write an explanation text of "How to look after a Greek God.'

History will also be closely link and enhanced through our Ancient Greek Topic. In History we will focus on the lifestyle of Ancient Greece and our outcome will be to say what legacies the Ancient Greeks left behind. 

In maths, Our first NCTEM unit will be adding and subtracting across 10

After children have secured their learning in this unit we will move onto looking up place value - numbers up to 1000. 

RE is primary focus of our school day, we celebrate our catholic faith daily through, prayer, meditation, RSE, collective worship in class and in mass or assemblies as a whole school. We also explore the RE further in lessons. Our topic this half term is the Domestic Church and Family, we will be reflecting on what home means to us and how God is present in our lives. 

Please do keep up to date with our weekly learning and updates on the class SEESAW blog. 

There is lots to learn and lots to look forward to, with a great year ahead!
