Welcome to Year 3's Class Page

Spring 1 Term

.

Welcome to Spring 2026!!!

We have an exciting and engaging half term ahead, full of opportunities for learning, creativity, and discovery.

In English, our work will follow the Year Three curriculum, with a particular focus on the inspiring book  The Stone Age Boy. This text will guide much of our reading, writing, and discussion, encouraging the children to explore ideas through storytelling and creative writing.

In Maths, we will be developing a secure understanding of multiplication, division, length, perimeter and helping children to become confident and resilient mathematicians.

Our Science topic will be Rocks. Children will learn that rocks are made up of minerals. Rocks are grouped based on how they are formed in the rock cycle. The rock groups are igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic. Sedimentary rocks are formed when sediment is deposited over time, often at the bottom of oceans and lakes. 

In Art, we will study the Stone Age cave art of Lascaux in France, exploring his unique style and using it as inspiration to create our own sculptures.

Our History lessons will take us to the Stone Age! We’ll be asking questions about life in the Stone Age and experiencing a Stone Day with special visitors on 13th January. Alongside this, children will also enjoy a rich curriculum including , RE, and other subjects that broaden their understanding of the world.

PE will take place every WEDNESDAY so please ensure your child comes prepared with their kit.

It is going to be a wonderful term of learning and growth, and I look forward to working together with you to support your child’s journey in Year Three.

Warm regards,

Mr McCarthy,
