Hello all,

Autumn 2 has got off to a great start in Year 3. We have continued out learning about the Stone Age and have seen some amazing home learning. Next Friday we are lucky enough to be having a ‘Stone Age Visitor’!

In maths we continue our learning in place value with some work on rounding. This week we will be halving and doubling – remembering key number facts and working out unknown ones.

Guided reading and English are closely linked – we are describing settings and generating vocabulary for our own writing and looking at texts to see how authors use various techniques.

We have been looking at maps in geography looking at where major cities and counties are. In the picture below we made a ‘string Great Britain’ and placed the counties of Hampshire, West Sussex, Devon and Dorset in the appropriate places. Children then began to write descriptions of the counties to include physical and human features.

In RE this week we will begin our learning about Remembrance and will be creating a wreath for our Remembrance service next Monday.

Thank you for visiting,

Sarah Luter
