Year 3
Welcome to Year 3
Year 3 is a fun year packed with exciting, adventure and learning.
This year, children will be doing learning linked to the topics of: Roald Dahl – Master Storyteller, Mapping Birmingham and The Romans. Children will have the opportunity to see a production of Jack and the Beanstalk, have a go at storytelling, do orienteering and visit Birmingham City Centre. They will also take part in a Roman banquet and Roman invasion!
In literacy children will be learning how to write creative and engaging stories as well as using their knowledge of Birmingham to create a persuasive text. They will also develop their writing skills by writing across many different genres. There will also be a strong focus on grammar and handwriting throughout the year.
In numeracy, children will love our practical and engaging maths lessons. They will learn how to use different calculation strategies to help them solve real life maths problems. Children will also improve their math skills through the use of Mathletics and regular times tables practice.
Finally, amongst lots of other amazing opportunities, children will have the chance to develop their swimming skills.
