RE

In line with our fellow Diocesan schools, we are using a scheme called ‘Come and See’ in Year 3.

During the Autumn term, the children will focus on three key themes: 

  • Domestic Church (Family) 
  • Baptism and Confirmation (Belonging) 
  • Advent and Christmas (Loving). 
  • The children will also spend one week studying Judaism.  

As we move into the spring term, we will be studying:  

  • Local Church (Community) 
  • Eucharist (Relating)  
  • Lent/Easter (Giving).  

Within the summer term, each unit reflects upon the role the Holy Spirit plays in our lives. We will be studying the three themes: 

  • Pentecost (Serving) 
  • Reconciliation (Inter-relating) 
  • Universal Church (World).  
  • The children will also spend one week studying Islam.

Oracy

This is a key focus in our school and is built into everything we do. Oracy is learning to talk and talking to learn. We seek to provide as many opportunities as possible for the children to speak aloud clearly and confidently. There will be paired discussion in every lesson and we will use a range of stem sentences to promote language development eg ‘I agree with … because.

We will also focus on the development and use of new and challenging vocabulary.
