Squirrels Class Y3
Welcome to Term 5!
We hope you had a lovely break and enjoyed the Easter celebrations.
This term in English, we will be learning how to write a play script and an explanation text. We will also be reading The Boy Who Grew Dragons by Andy Shepherd.
In Maths, we will complete our work on mass and capacity, then move on to money and further work on fractions.
Over the next two terms in Science, we will be examining the life cycle of plants. We’ll look at the requirements plants need to grow, function, and reproduce. We will also explore how different environments can affect plant growth and investigate how water is transported from the soil and how plants use sunlight to produce food.
In Geography, we will locate North America on a world map using latitude and longitude. We will also discover some of the physical and human features of this region.
In Art, we will explore both traditional and contemporary still life artists and create our own creative responses.
Our PE days are Wednesdays and Thursdays, where we will be learning yoga poses and playing cricket. As the weather improves, please ensure your child has a named hat and sun cream in school.
Finally, in RE, we will reflect on the question: "When Jesus left, what was the impact of Pentecost?"
If you have any questions or queries, please send them via your child's contact book, email the school office, or speak to us on the playground at the end of the school day.
With very best wishes,
Mrs. Baker and Miss Magowan
