For Unit 2, our writing will look at ‘Leon and the Place Between’ by Angela McAllister & Grahame Baker-Smith. This is a fantasy story set in a a mysterious world filled with rabbits, doves, playing cards and magician's assistants. In maths we will be completing our addition and subtraction topic before moving on to multiplication and division with an emphasis on the 3-, 4- and 8-times tables. Once we've finished our Remarkable Rocks topics by looking at fossils, science will see us exploring the human body with a focus on our skeleton and muscles. Meanwhile, our geography topic for this unit will be exploring rivers, including the nearby River Severn,which will see us looking at the features of rivers, how they are formed and the impact of humans on them. 

This year, one class will have Forest School whilst the other enjoys music and art. For the first Unit, 3RF will have Forest School on Friday afternoons, whilst 3SB will be exploring Vincent Van Gogh and looking at rhythms used in calypso music. The two classes will swap over in Unit 2 (November). Information about Forest School and what they need to wear will be communicated before each Unit, but note that children doing Forest School do not need to wear uniform on that day. 

Spellings will be tested on a Monday. Current spellings can be found below. Maths home learning is likewise set on Wednesday and due back by the following Monday and pupils are also encouraged to use Times Tables Rock Stars at home to become more confident with multiplication and division facts. In addition, we strongly encourage the children to read at least three times a week at home.

In PE in Unit 2, will will be looking at tag rugby and fitness. Please make sure you have your PE kits in school for our sporting activities on Monday and Tuesday. For outdoor PE you may wish your child to have a plain navy tracksuit for the day. Please send your child to school in their kit on their PE day, see the School Uniform webpage for more information.  Please make sure all earrings are removed or covered with tape before school on PE days.
