Year 3

Welcome to Year 3 at Endeavour Primary. In this year group, children build on the foundations from Year 2 and develop their confidence in reading, writing and mathematics. Our curriculum is designed to support secure learning, encourage curiosity and help pupils make steady progress through engaging lessons and clear expectations.

In English, children focus on developing vocabulary, improving sentence structure and writing for different purposes. Reading remains a key priority, with opportunities to practise comprehension skills and discuss texts. In mathematics, pupils strengthen their understanding of number and place value, develop fluency with key calculations and apply their skills to solve problems in a range of contexts.

We also provide a broad and balanced curriculum, including science, history, geography, art, design and technology, music and physical education. Throughout the year, we work closely with families to support learning at home through practical activities and regular updates. If you have any questions about your child’s progress or how you can help, please speak with your child’s class teacher—we are always happy to help.

 Week Commencing 12th October

This week, Year 3 have enjoyed applying their knowledge about The Stone Age within their art lessons. We have learned the slipping and scoring method to attach parts of clay in order to create our own mammoths. We've had so much fun making these and we are really impressed with how well they have turned out!

Week Commencing 5th October

This week, Year 3 have been working hard to solve addition and subtraction questions involving 3-digit numbers and bridging the tens. Children have been using Base 10 and place value counters to help them understand how to exchange.
