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. 

 

  • Spellings will be shared weekly on Class Dojo in two groups.
    There will be no spelling tests, however regular practice at home is strongly encouraged as it supports reading and writing development. Spellings will be shared digitally to prevent them being lost. I will write your child’s spelling group inside their reading diary for reference.

  • 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
     

P.E.
P.E. is every Tuesday and Wednesday.

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 outside at break.

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