WELCOME TO

WILLOW CLASS!

We are the Year Three Children!

Our teacher is Mrs Sherlock.

This term our topic is the 'Ruthless Romans'.

Welcome back to our first term in Willow Class!

In Year 3 this term, our topic is the 'Ruthless Romans'. In history, we will be learning all about the Roman Empire and their invasion of Britain. To link with our Romans topic, in geography we will learn about Italy, discussing where it is, its geographical features and the country's culture. In science, we will be learning about Rocks & Soils and Forces & Magnets. Children will be developing their sketching and observational drawing skills in art and designing and making food packaging in DT. In music, children will be learning how to play the recorder, read music and improvise, culminating in a performance to parents.

To link with our topic, we will be reading 'Queen of Darkness' by Tony Bradman and 'Escae from Pompeii' by Christina Balit. These texts, along with our learning in the other curriculum areas, will give us lots of inspiration for our English work throughout the term. 

I can't wait to see the work the children produce in their first term of Y3!
