Ysgol Penycae Community Primary School

Respect and be respected. Value and be valued. Aim high

Curriculum

Year 3's summer term topic is Save Our Wildlife. The children will be learning how to group and classify animals, use branching databases, create animal food chains and explore animal habitats. They will use the forest schools to explore mini beasts (applying their classification key reading skills) and create  habitats. After half term the focus will turn to conservation. We will welcome a visit from a bee keeper, and find out all about the vital role of a bee in Britain's wildlife. We will be developing our science investigation skills and learning all about plants. 

 

The children will study The Hodgeheg during whole class reading, and use their design skills to design a bridge for a hedgehog to enable them to safely cross the road. In Literacy the children will continue to develop their sentence construction, using adjectives and commas to create British animal descriptions. 

 

Our Maths skills will  be put to the test with further work on multiplication facts, fractions, time and shape. These skills will then be regularly reinforced and developed in the continuous provision areas. 

 

We will continue to enjoy visits from the Wrexham Music Service, developing our song writing skills. 

 

As always, work will be available for parents to see on Seesaw, so please ask for your child's code if you can't log in.
