Pine Martens Class - Year 3/4

 

Mr. M. Tran (Class Teacher)

Mrs Gould (PPA Cover - Thurs pm)

Welcome to Pine Marten Class!

 

Years 3 and 4 are the first two years in Key Stage Two and form Lower Key Stage Two. The children's education is planned using the National Curriculum via our Creative Curriculum. We use cross-curricular projects in which subjects overlap to reinforce and compliment each other. Each project is planned carefully to meet the needs of the child. We aim to develop knowledge, concepts, skills and attitudes necessary for the child's whole development and embrace 'Learning Without Limits'.

Term 3 and 4 - Remarkable Romans!

Welcome back and Happy 2025 to you all!

This term, we are starting where we left off in Term 2 at the Iron Age and discover what happens next in Britain. We meet the incredible civilisation of the Romans who went on to take over much of the country as well as Europe and find out why they have left such a lasting impression on the world that we still benefit from even today! Join us on our journey and see how we get on!

 

 

Term 1 and 2 - Time Travellers (Stone Age to Iron Age)

We took a trip to Worlebury Hillfort led by our fantastic local historian Bill Fraher. We loved learning all about the importance of hillforts as well as why this local historic site is special from other hillforts in the country. 

 

Welcome to Pine Martens Class!

This term and next, we will be Time Travelling thousands of years into the past to discover more about the Stone Age, Bronze Age and the Iron Age! 

 

 

  Reading 

Image result for the more you read quote

Reading is taught in many different ways: weekly guided reading (group discussions based around a text), shared reading (quality whole class texts) and reading across the curriculum. The focus across Key Stage 2 is on children's comprehension skills and how well they understand what they have read. You can support your child at home by hearing them read aloud at least 5 times a week (even if they are a fluent reader!) and asking them questions about what they have read.
