Year 3

Autumn Term (I)

Through the Ages

Join the children as they travel back in time to learn about life in the Stone Age, Iron Age and Bronze Age. As historians, children will interpret artefacts and information from across these periods of history to increase their awareness of the rich culture of the people living in these eras. Building on prior knowledge, children will deepen their knowledge and understanding of language, communication, art and religion, as well as researching the tools and weapons needed by early humans during these challenging and dangerous periods of time.

Autumn Term (II)

Food, Glorious Food!

Throughout this topic, children will explore the wonderful world of food and the processes involved in getting the food we love to our plates. As geographers, children will investigate the origins of everyday food items and build on their previously learned geographical skills to map the locations locally and nationally before extending to globally. Using what they have learned, children will debate the issue of importing goods from other countries and the impact that this has on our carbon footprints as opposed to sourcing food locally and the benefits of this. Following this, children will become engrossed in an in-depth study of chocolate and use multi-curricular skills to design and produce a nutritiously balanced chocolate snack!
