Welcome to Year 3
This term, our class topic is The Ancient Egyptians. We'll be finding out all about this ancient civilization and comparing their lives to ours.
Homework will continue to be sent out every Friday and should be returned every Wednesday. Please try your best with all of your homework. Reading books should be returned every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
We will be doing PE every Thursday during Term 3a and every Tuesday during Term 3b so please come to school wearing your PE kit. Remember to tie long hair back and remove your earrings.
If you have any questions, please come and ask!

We have thoroughly enjoyed taking part in PE this half term. We have even tried kurling!
We have enjoyed using practical methods to complete a lot of our work within the classroom this half-term. We have been solving problems in maths, performing our own drama as well as preparing dramatic readings of our own poetry!
We enjoyed celebrating Chinese New Year! Xīn Nián Kuài Lè!
We were lucky enough to have visits from Dogs Trust and Big Foot Arts. Dogs Trust taught us how to stay safe near unfamiliar dogs. Big Foot Arts helped us think about e-safety and how we can support our anti-bullying campaign in our school. The drama activities helped us think carefully about the important messages.
We have been learning about animals including humans. This has involved researching different food groups and how packaging helps us. We have also investigated our digestive system and even used various images and practical methods to learn about skeletons.
