Year 3, Classes 1 & 2

Welcome to Year 3!

This year welcoming you into Year 3 we have Mr Fishwick, Miss Henderson, Mrs Price, Mrs Ball and Mrs Young. 

We hope our new Year 3 children settle in well to our wonderful school where we learn and have lots of fun!

This term we will be learning all about 'The Stone Age' as part of our history work on 'Prehistoric Britain'. We will be researching and making our own 'Stone Age Paintings' during our Art lessons. In English we will be studying the wonderful story 'Stone Age Boy' and learn how to write our own adventure story. In our science lessons we will be learning about 'Animals Including Humans'.

Our class books this term will be 'The Bolds' by Julian Clary and 'Billy and the Minpins' by Roald Dahl. 

PE
Your PE t-shirts should be in your house colour and clothes with logos and stripes should not be worn.
You will need to bring your indoor and outdoor PE kit and leave it in your locker to change into for lessons. Our kits need to be in school for a Monday (indoor) and Friday (outdoor).
Please make sure you have a warmer PE kit (jogging bottoms and sweatshirt) during the colder months. 

Homework

Reading

We love reading in Year 3 and as well as reading a class book, children have individual readers and a book from our school library. We ask at home that our children read three times per week and have this written in their reading record.

Please ensure reading records are in school on a Friday for them to be checked.

Maths

Each week you will be given a timestable sheet to help practise your multiplication and division skills. Please take time to complete these. It really helps with your Maths work (especially Number Ninja).

Please return the sheets on a Monday. New sheets will be handed out on a Tuesday.

You can access Times Tables Rockstars by using the login on the inside of your reading record.

Spellings

Everyone has a login for Spelling Shed (these can be found in your reading diary). We would like you to play some spelling games on Spelling Shed to help you learn the spelling patterns required for Year 3.
