1. Programme of Study Topic: Every picture tells a story Year:3 Term: Spring Geography: To investigate places Ask and answer geographical questions about the physical and human characteristics of a location. Explain own views about locations giving reasons. Use maps, atlases, globes and digital/computer Mapping to locate countries and describe features. Name and locate countries and cities of the UK, geographical regions and their identifying human and physical characteristics including hills, mountains, cities, rivers and understand how some of these have changed over time. Name and locate the countries of Europe and identify their main and physical characteristics. To investigate patterns Describe geographical similarities and differences between countries. Describe how the locality of the school has changed over time. To communicate geographically Describe the key aspects of; -Physical geography including rivers, mountains, volcanos and earthquakes and the water cycle. -Human geography, including settlements and land use. Computing: -Use search technologies effectively, appreciate how results are selected and ranked, and be discerning in evaluating digital contents. -Select, use and combine a variety of software (including internet services) and a range of digital devices to design and create a range of programmes,s systems and content that accomplish given goals, including collecting, analysing, evaluating and presenting data and information. Science: To work scientifically TO ask relevant questions Set up simple, practical enquiries and comparative and fair tests. Make accurate measurements using standard units using a range of equipment. E.g. data loggers and thermometers. Gather, record, classify and present data in a variety of ways to help I answering questions. Record findings using simple scientific language, drawings, labelled diagrams, bar charts and tables. Report on findings rom enquiries including oral and written explanations, displays or presentations of results and conclusions. Use results to draw simple conclusions. Identify differences or similarities related to scientific ideas and processes. Art and Design: To develop ideas Develop ideas from starting points throughout the curriculum Collect information sketches and resources Adapt and refine ideas as they progress Explore ideas in a variety of ways Comment on art works using visual language To take inspiration from the greats Replicate some of the techniques used by notable artists, artisans and designers Create original pieces that are influenced by studies from others. Design and Technology: Design, make and evaluate an item Design with purpose by identifying opportunities to design. Make products by working efficiently (such as by carefully selecting materials). Refine work and techniques as work progresses, continually evaluating the product design. Use software to design and represent product designs. History Investigating and Interpret the past Use evidence to ask questions and find answers to questions about the past Suggest suitable sources of evidence for historical enquiries. Use more than one source of evidence for historical enquiry in order to gain a more accurate understanding of history. To build an overview of world history Give a broad overview of life in Britain. Compare some of the times studied with those of other areas of interest around the world. Describe the social, ethnic, cultural or religious diversity of past society. To understand chronology To place events, artefacts and historical figures on a timeline using dates. Use dates and terms to describe events. TO communicate historically Use appropriate historical vocabulary to communicate including: -Dates -Tie period -Chronology Use literacy, numeracy and computing skills to a good standard in order to communicate information about the past. Languages: understand and communicate ideas, facts and feelings in speech and writing, focused on familiar and routine matters, using their knowledge of phonology, grammatical structures and vocabulary. Music: To Perform Sing from memory with accurate pitch. Sing in tune. Maintain a simple part within a group. Pronounce words within a song clearly. Show control of voice. Play notes on an instrument with care so that they are clear To compose Compose and perform melodic songs. Use sound to create abstract effects. Create repeated patterns with a range of instruments. Create accompaniments for tunes. Use drones as accompaniments. TO transcribe Devise non-standard symbols to indicate when to play and rest. Recognise the notes EGBDF and FACE on the musical stave. TO describe music Use the terms: pitch, beat, tempo, use of silence to describe music. Evaluate music using musical vocabulary to identify areas of likes and dislikes Physical Education: develop flexibility, strength, technique, control and balance [for example, through athletics and gymnastics]  perform dances using a range of movement patterns  take part in outdoor and adventurous activity challenges both individually and within a team  compare their performances with previous ones and demonstrate improvement to achieve their personal best.

2. Subject Summaries Topic: Every picture tells a story Year:3 Term: Spring Geography: River Nile Climate zone Human geography Types of settlements Economic activity including trade links Compare Egypt & Britain, Place knowledge Geography skills & fieldwork Computing: 3.1- We are researchers: Researching ancient and modern Egypt and presenting it in a PowerPoint presentation. To collect: Devise and construct databases using applications designed for this purpose in areas across the curriculum. 3.3- We are animators: Creating a film strip using iPods to record ancient Egyptians shadow puppet film/story To code: Use specified screen coordinates to control movement. Set the appearance of objects and create sequences of changes Create and edit sounds. Control when they are heard, their volume, duration and rests. Science: Light recognise that they need light in order to see things and that dark is the absence of light notice that light is reflected from surfaces recognise that light from the sun can be dangerous and that there are ways to protect their eyes recognise that shadows are formed when the light from a light source is blocked by a solid object find patterns in the way that the size of shadows change Art and Design: Digital Media Create images, video and sound recordings and explain why they were created. Printing Use layers of two or more colours. Replicate patterns observed in natural or built environments. Make printing blocks Make precise repeating patterns. Design and Technology: Construction Choose suitable techniques to construct products or to repair items. Strengthen materials using suitable techniques. History: Study of ancient Egyptian life Achievement Influence on western world Mummification – fruit Languages: Language of the term Arabic Tell story in Arabic Take part in simple aural exchanges RE Islamic imagery National/International Links: Music: Queen NUT (musical) Singing & performing vocally Play with tuned and untuned instruments Reproduce sounds from aural memory Music history Physical Education: Gymnastics Plan, perform and repeat sequences. Move in a clear, fluent and expressive manner. Refine movements into sequences. Show changes of direction, speed and level during a performance. Travel in a variety of ways, including flight, by transferring weight to generate power in movements. Show a kinesthetic sense in order to improve the placement and alignment of body parts (e.g. in balances experiment to find out how to get the centre of gravity successfully over base and organise body parts to create an interesting body shape). Basketball BASKETBALL To develop practical skills in order to participate, compete and lead a healthy lifestyle (Football) Throw and catch with control and accuracy. Strike a ball and field with control. Follow the rules of the game and play fairly. Maintain possession of a ball (with, e.g. feet, a hockey stick or hands). Lead others and act as a respectful team member. Trips, Visitors and Outdoor Learning: Photographers gallery
