Year 3

Weekly Update - Friday 25th April 2025

Summary of this week:

 

In Year 3 this week, we have started our new topic on Ancient Egypt. We have been learning about Tutankhamun and Howard Carter's discovery of his tomb. We have been exploring this in our Reading and History lessons as well as beginning to create our own Ancient Egyptian art!

 

 

Our learning next week:

Maths:  We will be continuing our unit on Time using stop watches. 

English: We will be planning our own non-chronological reports, designing monsters to inspire our writing!

In our Reading lessons, we will be exploring THE RAILWAY CHILDREN. 

Foundation:  

In History, we will continue to learn about Ancient Egypt, specifically Cleopatra. 

In RE, we will be continuing our Sikhism unit and learning about Guru Gobind Singh. 

In Art, we will be designing our own Egyptian artwork, ready to paint onto papyrus paper!

In PE, we will be learning athletics with Mrs Line and cricket with Coach Jay. We will also be starting our swimming lessons with our Dip ‘n’ Dive coaches.

Homework

Maths

The Maths homework sheet will be given out on Tuesdays – please could children complete this and hand it in by Friday so teachers can mark, provide feedback and hand back by the following week.

 

Children are encouraged to use Times Table Rockstars for extra multiplication practise, a few times each week. Little and often is recommended! Logins and passwords are stuck inside the cover of the children’s maths homework books. Teachers will continue to award TTRS certificates on a Friday for those children that are using the website regularly throughout the week and making good progress with their times tables learning! 😊

Spelling

Please continue to practise the weekly spelling words at home in whichever way your child finds most useful.

 

 

 

 Notices & Reminders:

A big thank you to our helpers who have supported with swimming this week!

 

Please remember to ensure your child's pencil case is well stocked with all the necessary equipment (whiteboard pen, pencil, handwriting pen, glue stick etc...)

  

Thank you as always for your support,
Miss Bullock, Mr Harber, Mrs Secker, Mrs McKenzie and Mrs Milner.
