Welcome to Year Three:
Here you will find three teachers: Miss McKay, Mrs Matthews and Mrs Green.
Mrs Matthews and Mrs Green share Class 1 and Miss McKay teaches Class 2.
We also have three very talented Teaching Assistants working with us too: Mrs Davies, Mrs Brewer and Miss Walters.
In Year 3, we study three topics - Early Man, Ancient Egypt and Local History (Coal Mining)
Please ensure you have a water bottle in school every day.
Our P.E. days this Autumn Term are Wednesday and Friday where we will be learning fundamental ball skills and team building. Children should come to school in their P.E. kits on these days. Remember our school P.E. kit is a plain white polo shirt, and plain navy shorts/joggers. No logos are to be worn. Remember no earrings or jewellery.
When it is not PE, please make sure you are wearing the correct uniform - always wearing your tie and black school shoes.
Children need to read at least 5 times every week at home and the reading diary should be filled in by a grown-up. Children should always have their reading diary and reading book with them in school and will earn dojo points for each read they complete at home. They will be heard read in school during DEAR time (Drop Everything and Read)
Homework will be handed out on a Friday and should be completed and brought back to school each Wednesday to be marked. Don't forget to practise your rapid recall and times tables each week also. In the reading diary you will find the logins for a range of websites to support learning.
On Thursday 25th September, we invited our year 3 parents and carers to join their children in school for lunch. This was a wonderful dinner time, where families were able to try the delicious food that our school cook makes for us. On the menu was giant Yorkshire pudding filled with roast meat, potatoes, seasonal vegetables and gravy. For pudding there was butterscotch shortcake.
We used pipes and communication skills to transport the ball across the hall.
We made our own muscles using elastic bands.
Learning the 'or' grapheme and tricky words.
