Year 3 Summer Overview
In the summer term in Year 3, under the main heading of the 'Environment' we will be looking at our local area and then moving on to conservation. In our Geography we will be looking at ordnance survey maps of the Wirral, introducing grid references, investigating land use and looking closely at the River Dee.
In History we will be looking at the Anglo-Saxons and exploring whether they settled in the Wirral. We will start reading the book’ The Hodgeheg’ by Dick King Smith, in the second half of the term to lead us on to our conservation topic looking at hedgehogs.
The children will be making clay hedgehogs in art and constructing packaging for their hedgehogs in design technology. The children will also receive a talk from a lady who works in a local hedgehog sanctuary about hedgehogs and learn how they can help them.
