Welcome to Class 3  

Autumn Term 2024

Welcome back to to Class Three.

I hope you have had a lovely half term break and are now ready and looking forward to all the new and interesting things that we can find out together. We're going to be really busy, as always and we can't wait to get started! Here's just a brief outline of what we'll be getting up to.

We begin our English lessons by looking at 'Where the Poppies Now Grow' in order to get us ready for Remembrance day. After that first week, our lessons will be based around a range of fantastic books and I will give details of these as we go along...I don't want to give too much away as lots of prediction is involved!

In Maths, for this half term, will be focussing on; Multiplication & Division and Fractions, Place Value in addition and subtraction, Length and Capacity, Place Value - difference.

In Science we will be thinking about 'Forces and Magnets'. For more information on this, please see the knowledge organiser below.

This half term will have another Geography focus and we will be investigating the question, 'Why do some earthquakes cause more damage than others?'  Again, more information is in the knowledge organiser below.

We will be continuing with our clarinet lessons. Please find time to practise at home.

If you have any questions or concerns or if you would like to volunteer to help out or share your expertise in a particular area, you can contact us through the school office or see us at the beginning or end of the school day.

Let’s work together to make this a fantastic year for the children of Class 3.

Many thanks 

The Class Three team
