Year 3
Welcome to the Year 3 page
In year 3, the children have been learning lots of new skills and deepening their understanding.
They are also learning to become more resilient learners and to work collaboratively with others as well as developing independence.
In Maths, the children are developing their understanding of place value, number, addition and subtractions. We are focusing on problem solving as this gives the children the opportunity to apply their knowledge in a real life context.
In English, the children are continuing to develop their writing skills using Pie Corbett’s Talk for Writing strategies.
The focus for this half term is Instructions. The children will be looking at a wide range of instructions and will be learning the text How to Trap a Dragon
Thank you for your support,
Miss Wallek
