Year 3

Welcome to Year 3

Dear Parents,

Welcome back. We hope you have enjoyed the summer holidays and are now ready for the exciting year ahead in Year 3. At the start of this new half term we thought that you might like a reminder of some expectations of Year 3 so that you can continue to support your child with their learning:

Homework in Year 3:

Reading: 10 minutes daily with a written comment by the children at least three times a week.

Times tables/number bonds/spellings: 10 minutes daily.

A selection of homework activities will be set half termly. Please complete an activity from the selection each week and return books to school by Thursday each week.

Spellings are tested on Thursday or Friday.  The children might not know which day they are to be tested so they need to know them by Thursday.  This will help keep them on their toes!

Times tables/number bonds are tested weekly.

Each week five different children will be picked as Star Mathematician, Star Reader, Star Writer, Pupil of the Week and Values and Virtue of the week.  Their names will be displayed on our classroom window for the week.

Any letters or reply slips, which need to be returned, can be handed in to me or put in their reading records.

Please ensure children have only water in their bottles at school.

Children do not need to bring stationery to school or pencil cases as all equipment is provided.

Thank you for your continued support. Please do not hesitate to come and speak to us if you have any questions or concerns.
