Year 3 - The Kingfishers

Welcome to our Year 3 page. I hope you find this site useful for keeping up with important dates and celebrating our learning and achievements throughout the year. I am very much looking forward to working with you and supporting your child on their journey. As always, I have an open door policy so please do not hesitate to contact me either in person or on Class Dojo with any concerns or of course any celebrations your child has achieved and you would like to share. 

​

  • Times Tables Rock Stars (TTRS) should be practised regularly to help consolidate multiplication facts.

  • Reading at home continues to be extremely important. Regular reading supports vocabulary development, comprehension and overall confidence across the curriculum.
    Thank you, as always, for your continued support. Please do not hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions.


Reading
Reading is essential in Year 3. We ask children to read at least four times a week.
Each child has:

  • A book at their reading level (used in Guided Reading)

  • A self-chosen book, which may be more challenging of their choice from school or from home

P.E.
P.E. is every Tuesday and Friday

Reminders:

  • Children must bring appropriate kit and outdoor footwear.

  • Long hair must be tied up.

  • Earrings must be removed or covered (staff cannot remove them).
     

Snacks

  • In Year 3, snacks are brought from home and eaten after break between 10.50 and 11.05

  • Please send healthy options (fruit, veg, or low-sugar cereal bars).


    In English, we have been looking at character description and have used two lovely texts 'The Iron Giant' and 'The Tin Forest' to develop our writing using expanded noun phrases, similies, adverbs and all the other skills we learnt in year 2.
    In math we have been looking at our place value knowledge and addition and subtraction up to 1000 and also re-visiting our times table knowledge.
    Mr Terry has also been teaching the classes in school French and we have been lucky enough to develop our speaking skills.
