Mrs Radley 

Welcome to Year 3!

Welcome Back, I hope that you have all had a fantastic Summer and are looking forward to a fantastic new term!

I have included a few notes below to give you a broad outline of the work that we will be covering this term.  Maths and English will be taught daily, with the rest of the subjects being taught in blocks, with the exception of P.E.,music and PSHE.

This year the class will be taught by Miss Jones on Monday through to Thursday and by Mrs King a Friday morning.

In Maths, we will be looking at addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and fractions.

This term's English will cover writing in various styles with a focus upon Stig of the Dump around our topic Stone Age to Iron Age.  This will include story construction, characterisation and inferring meaning. We will be listening to the children read regularly in school but do expect the children to read every night at home.  We ask that the children fill in their own reading records but do fill it in if you wish to communicate with the school.

P.E. will take the form of swimming on Wednesday morning and American sports taught by Rik on a Monday afternoon.  The class will also be taught PSHE on a Monday afternoon by Mrs Tolley.

Our topic for the term will be Stone Age to Iron Age and in Science, we will be studying rocks and our bodies.  In RE will will look at why people pray as well as Christian festivals. We are also very fortunate to have Mrs King who will be visiting us on every other week on a Friday afternoon, to teach the children French.

The children will be given homework on a Friday and they will have a week to complete it. This will take the form of spellings to learn and a maths sheet related to work covered in class.  I would like the children to write a sentence that includes each of their spellings and to complete the 'look, say, cover, write, check' sheet. All homework will be stuck into a homework book.  If they are struggling with any aspect of it, please encourage them to come and have a chat with me about it.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me via the school office or leave a note in your child's homework book.
