Oak - Mrs Harvey & Miss MurrayWelcome to Oak Class - Year 3 New Beginnings... We are very excited to welcome you all to Oak Class this year. We cannot wait to show you our brand new classroom and for you to fill the walls with all your wonderful learning! Year 3 is the beginning of a brand new Key Stage and Oak class will be an exciting time for you to grow as independent learners who have lots of fun along the way. In Maths, we will begin with place value and number lines to secure children's understanding of the meaning of numbers and their order. In English, we will begin with The Tear Thief which is based on emotions and the reasons behind these. This focuses on children's wellbeing after an extra long break from the normal school routine due to Covid-19. Our class reader will be The Hundred-Mile-an-Hour Dog.
