Key information

Homework

Homework will be given out on a Friday and will be due back the following Friday. Homework will either be literacy, maths or topic based. Each week your child will also be given some spellings to practice. They will be tested on these spellings every Friday. Children can also practice spellings on edshed.com.

Your child’s PE days will be Wednesday and Thursday. Your child should come to school ready in their PE kits and trainers on these days.

Reading

Confident Year 3 readers will be able to choose a book from the school library. We have a new scanning system in the library. When children have finished reading a book, it will be scanned back in by a member of staff. Children can then take out a new book.

For most children in Year 3, we won't ask you to fill in a reading record/ books. However, please continue to read daily with your child whenever possible – aim for 20 minutes a day.

Some children, who are finding aspects of reading or phonics difficult, will continue to receive Little Wandle keep up sessions in small groups. They will also be given a reading record book. Please click on the link below to access the parent area on the Little Wandle website with information and ideas to support your child at home.

Year 3 loved examining replicas of Stone Age artefacts with archaeologist Rob Hedges.

Year 3 had a fantastic Stone Age Day. They looked fantastic in their outfits and had a great time cooking Stone Age crumble, making jewellery, creating cave art using natural materials, testing their archery skills and making model Stone Age houses in our garden area. Well done Year 3!'
