Class 5
All About Year 3
Year 3 is an exciting year for the children when they move from KS1 to KS2. We try to make the transition as enjoyable as possible for the children.
Term 1 and 2
We are Historians
In English this term, Class 5 will be developing their writing skills through the exploration of diary writing and newspaper articles. We will also be using our class text ‘Beowulf’ as inspiration for recounts and character descriptions.
In Maths, Class 5 are using numbers up to 1000 to develop their understanding of place value, addition and subtraction and number lines. We will also be furthering our multiplication and division skills, looking at the 2, 3, 4, 5 and 10 times tables.
As historians this term, Class 5 will be learning about both the Anglo-Saxons and the Vikings! We will be discovering where they came from, how and why they came to Britain and also how they lived.
During our science lessons, we will firstly be investigating living things and their habitats. This will involve the grouping and classification of livings things as well as the exploration of their environments and habitats. We will then be moving on to states of matter and the study of solids, liquids and gases.
