Autumn Term in Year 3 

Welcome to Year 3! 

We are delighted to welcome both children and parents as we begin an exciting new chapter in your child’s learning journey—Key Stage 2! The autumn term marks the start of Year 3, and we are looking forward to getting to know our new cohort and supporting them as they grow in confidence, independence, and curiosity.

Our topic this term is The Stone Age, and we’re excited to explore this fascinating period through creative and engaging activities across the curriculum.

In English, we will be focusing on sentence structure and grammar, helping to consolidate the skills developed in Key Stage 1. We’ll be embedding a secure understanding of full stops and capital letters, while building confidence in constructing clear and accurate sentences.

In Maths, our focus will be on addition and subtraction, introducing formal written methods and developing fluency in the 2, 5, and 4 times tables. Our lessons will be active and engaging, designed to build strong foundations and confidence in key number skills.

P.E. in Elm class will take place every Wednesday and in Ash class every Friday. Please ensure your child comes to school wearing their P.E. kit on these days.

We are thrilled to embark on this exciting spring term together and can’t wait to see all the amazing progress and creativity from our Year 3 learners!

We have attached a list of the Year 3 recommended reads for you to have a look at.
