Year 3
Our teachers are Mrs Clarke and Mrs Webster
Our teaching partners are Mrs Herman and Mrs Ellis
Welcome to year 3!
Welcome back to another exciting half term; this last one before the summer holidays is always action-packed, with lots of lovely things to look forward to. We are kicking off with the very first RLT Art Week and the theme is The Colours I See. All children will be creating their very own master piece - watch this space!
Our new unit in English is based on the non-fiction book 'The Street Beneath My Feet' and we shall be using this to inspire our own writing of explanation texts. It ties in nicely with our Science topic on rocks and fossils.
We are looking forward to our Roman topic, one that always captures the children's imagination. There are so many lovely things to look forward to in our learning, not to mention Sports Days, class photos and preparing for our move to year 4. We shall all be ready for the summer holidays when they come!
Do keep up to date with our learning adventures on our social media channels.

Growth Mindset
Growth mindset is about having a positive attitude and supports being a successful learner.
Showing a growth mindset helps us face challenges, overcome failure and
be resilient. At WCP we celebrate mistakes in all subjects as we know that that can be the first attempt in learning. We discuss how our
learning behaviours contribute to be successful in school and relate this to
future ambitions. Each term we focus on a particular learning behaviour
that is linked to growth mindset and certificates are awarded to children who show these learning behaviours in school.

Investigating Light
We had great fun investigating light with Mr. Morgan.
Our challenge was to make the gem light up using mirrors.
