Year 3 2021 - 2022
with Miss Forrester,
Mrs Kemp and Miss Dugmore
This term our topic is:
The Romans!
As always, I am very excited about this topic & I can't wait for all of the fantastic learning that I know will take place!
Why the Romans?
For our children to understand modern
Britain, a knowledge of the Roman
Empire on Britain is essential. The
children should develop an understanding
of what the Romans brought to Britain
that we still use today in our modern
society. Children will develop their
critical thinking skills and use their
enquiring minds by evaluating the
reliability and validity of different
sources and information, considering why
alternative viewpoints differ. They can
they apply and transfer these skills to
everyday life by being reflective about
information they encounter.
Our main focus texts are:
These will be the stimulus for many of our writing opportunities through the final term of Year 3!
