Miss Lester-Jones

Teaching Assistant: Mrs Bayley

Welcome to Class 3

Welcome back! I am looking forward to teaching you all this year. The children have settled back into school and the new routine well, they are all aware of the expectations and have worked together to come up with some fabulous class rules. I hope everyone engages well in the learning, whilst having lots of fun!

Spring Term

Topic

Our topic this term is 'The Industrial Revolution and Railways', we will be answering the question 'How Does it Work?'. The children will be learning about Railways and travel in Geography, the Industrial Revolution in history and we will be making Robots in DT. Within our English, we will be using 'Journey' to write a story. We will also be using our historical knowledge to write a non-chronological report on the working conditions of children in the mines. For more detail please see the curriculum letter.

The homework menu is now available. I look forward to seeing the fabulous work I am sure the children will create.

At the bottom of our class page, I have included some spelling activities, reading comprehensions and key number facts to aid the children's learning.

Here is a link for the Oxford Owl reading website which includes lots of free resources.
