All the English skills in the 2014 National Curriculum for Year 3 are gathered into one coherent sequence, which you can use as a complete plan for your whole year s literacy lessons, or as a flexible starting point. This Teacher s Guide provides progression for your pupils, and supports you in delivering a more demanding skills-based curriculum.
Treasure House Teacher s Guides are underpinned by five core principles to ensure that all children learn to enjoy and excel in English. Wonder and joy for curious young minds describes the carefully mapped journeys from immersion in high quality texts through to independent creation. Reading is a critical academic and life skill for children to develop, so is at the heart of every Treasure House learning journey. Great teaching requires effective assessment for learning; this is why flexibility is built into the foundations of Treasure House. Treasure House learning utilises a high ceiling, low threshold approach to differentiation, enabling access and success for all. Teachers are intelligent decision-makers: Treasure House encourages professional judgement in the crafting of inspirational English lessons."
