Welcome to Year 3 – MacArthur Class
Hello and welcome to MacArthur class.
I am Miss Mirto and the Teaching Assistants are Miss Andrews and Mrs Ziccardi.
In Autumn 1, our History topic is the Stone Age- we will be learning about where the Stone Age fits on a timeline and how people lived and adapted their lives during this time. In DT, we will be designing and making light up information posters, using simple circuits. In Science, we will be exploring the properties of rocks and learning about how rocks are created. In Music, we are excited to welcome a specialist teacher from the Bedfordshire Music Hub for weekly ukulele lessons.
In Autumn 2, our Geography topic is London and the United Kingdom- we will be learning about where London and other major cities are situated. We will then explore the human and physical features found in London and compare them to another location in the UK. In Computing this half term we will be exploring databases, we will learn how to use and create a database. Our French unit this half term focuses on adjectives (colour and size), we will use this information to describe shapes and create our own images
Facts about Year 3 – MacArthur
When 26-year-old Ellen Macarthur became the fastest woman to sail around the world, it was the culmination of years of hard work and determination. Ellen’s passionate relationship with sailing began when she was eight and stepped aboard her aunt’s boat to go sailing on the East Coast. Her career started with Ellen sailing single-handedly around Britain – an achievement which brought her the title of BT/JYA Young Sailor of the Year.
