Welcome to Picasso - Year 3!

Welcome to the Picasso Class Page!

Welcome to Year 3: We are really looking forward to working, learning and getting to know each other in year 3 as the children embrace their first year in Key Stage 2.

Our key concept this half term is consequences. 

RE learning covers the Jewish festival of Passover. This topic enables the children to consider the wider area of ‘remembrance’ and evaluate how these ideas and practices are present in their own lives and religious awareness. Our whole school worships and reflection worships allow the children to build on their own spiritual understanding.

Our curriculum focuses around our concept of consequences and explores other topics. The children will be utilising a range of scientific equipment during our learning about solids, liquids and gases. In History, we will be considering the reliability of sources when we find out about the Roman impact on Britain. In DT, we will be researching, designing, using and evaluating our Ancient Roman catapults. For our PE learning all about communication and tactics as part of Outdoor Adventurous Activities, along with football skills. In Computing, the children will be beginning to understand how to make presentations which include animations. Our RSHE focuses on being safe and economic wellbeing in the wider world. To continue our French learning, we will encounter vocabulary for colours and Easter as well as responding to simple questions. The Ukelele will be taught by HMS music specialist. The children will learn to play and perform in solo and ensemble contexts, using their voices and playing Ukuleles with increasing accuracy, fluency, control and expression. The children will have the opportunity to improvise and compose music for a range of purposes using the inter-related dimensions of music.
