Writing

In our literacy lessons, we will be exploring the text, 'Star in the Jar' by Sam Hay.

We will develop our writing skills through sentence stacking lessons and build up to an independent writing task.

Reading

During our guided reading lessons this half-term, Year 3 will be reading and analysing the narrative texts, 'The Iron Man' by Ted Hughes and 'George’s Marvellous Medicine' by Roald Dahl. The children will also explore the non-fiction text, 'The Colours of History: How Colours Shaped The World' by Clive Gifford.

In our lessons, we will focus on reading fluency, understanding word meanings in context, summarising and answering retrieval questions. We will use our inference skills to zoom in closer as we look at themes, characters and events in the texts. 

Maths

In Maths, we will begin looking at Place Value before moving onto Addition and Subtraction. The children will use White Rose Maths, firstly developing their fluency and building on the application of mathematical knowledge to deepen their understanding, master key concepts and apply what they have learnt to a range of problem-solving and reasoning. 

The children will have dedicated time to learn and practise their times tables  to ensure they are increasing in accuracy and speed.
