Welcome to Spring 1 term in Year 3

Our topic for this half term is 'All around the World', we will be Geographers and we will be virtually travelling to Europe, North and South America and of course the UK to start. If you have any books linked to different places around the world, we would love to see them. The new homework project will be sent out during the first week in January - we apologise in advance.

We are going to start reading 'The Firework Maker's daughter' by Philip Pullman.

In Maths we are continuing with multiplication and division. Please encourage your child to spend as much time as possible on times table rockstars. Five minutes a day would be brilliant.
