Welcome to Fletcher Class
We are the class teachers, Mrs Whittle and Mrs Lodge. We love teaching Year 3. We are excited for an amazing year filled with lots of fun topics and learning opportunities. It will be a year of Egyptians, the Stone age and much much more! This year we have named our class after the Author Tom Fletcher. He has written some great books such as The ChristmaSaurus and The Danger Gang. In our class, we also have Miss Shiel. She is brilliant and will be on hand to support us in the class.Keep checking what we have been up to!
Year 3 Get Active Day
River Trip
Year 3 enjoyed a fantastic afternoon looking at what is living in the River Dearne with the help of the Eco parish and the River helpers. We discovered different creatures such as the Olive, Mayfly, Shrimp and Fish to name a few and then we used magnifying glasses to look closely at their features and characteristics. We also discussed biodiversity and pollution in water, then the creatures they find can show how polluted the water is.
Topic Writing
Year 3 have begun their latest writing topic all about the story of Theseus and the Minotaur. Last week explored the plot and used drama to tell the story. We definitely discovered some future actors and actresses in our class.
Letter Writing
Over the last few weeks, Fletcher class have been learning about letters. We have written our own letters based around the book “The Gardener”.
Orienteering
Year 3 have been learning all about orienteering in our PE sessions this half term. We’ve had to interpret maps and find the correct routes.
Storytelling through Art
In Year 3 we are using Art to tell stories. We have focussed on the work of illustrator Quentin Blake. We’ve loved developing our ideas using in his style. Can you tell which Dahl story we are trying to tell?
School Trip - Manchester Museum
Year 3 have had a fantastic day visiting the Manchester museum. We loved exploring everything on show in the museum and even got to handle some real ancient Egyptian artefacts in our workshop. The class were excellent representatives of our school! Mrs Lodge and Mrs Whittle were very proud of them.

Bills New Frock
