Year 3
Miss Woodward Miss Angell
On this page, you will be able to find out about the recent projects and activities we have been involved in.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Reading Books
We aim to read and change books with the children every week. Please ensure that your child has their reading book and journal in school every day to support their progress in reading.
Reading Ambassadors
Every time your child reads at home, please record it in their reading records. This is classed as a 'read'.
After 25 reads, your child will be rewarded with the bronze badge and certificate.
After 50 it's silver.
After 75 it's gold.
100 reads is rewarded with the 'Reading Ambassador' badge and certificate.
Homework
Homework will be given out every Friday. One side will have English work and the other maths.
The maths homework will cover an aspect the children have been learning in the week or a timetables activity.
The English will be a reading comprehension or a grammar and punctuation activity.
Spellings will also be given out each week and will be tested the following week.
Reading should be a daily routine, with adults sharing books alongside children reading at their own level for at least 15 minutes each day. Please sign your child's reading record so they earn their Reading Ambassador awards.
PE kits
P.E Lessons will be on a Thursday and Friday.
Due to Health and Safety reasons, children who do not come to school with the correct PE kit will not be able to participate in PE lessons.
Children must have a red top, black shorts or joggers and black trainers (not pumps). Please do not send your child in with sports tops or patterned joggers.
If they do not have the correct kit mentioned above, children are to come to school in their school uniform with their PE kit in a bag and they can then get changed for PE before the lesson.
Children must not wear earrings for P.E lessons and long hair must be tied back.
Look what Year 3 have been up to already in the first week back!
