Year 3

PE - Our PE days this half term are Tuesday and Thursday. Please send your child to school in their PE kit on these days. 

Coats -  Please can you send your child in with a coat everyday as we will be doing learning in and out of the classroom in both rain and shine! It would be a real help if coats and jumpers/cardigans were clearly named so they don't get lost.

Water bottles -  Please ensure that your child's bottle is in school every day so that they can access a drink during the day. 

Reading – Now that your child is in KS2, it is still important that they are reading regularly so that they are able to build their fluency and comprehension. It is important to see what your child has been engaging in at home, for example: reading, extra maths jobs, handwriting. Please could you record this in your child's reading diary.

Bookbags -  Please bring in books/book bags every day. These will be kept in your child's drawer or on their peg. Where possible, please avoid sending your child in with very large back packs as we struggle to fit them all in the cloakroom.

Showbie - Your child will be given a Showbie login, we will be using Showbie in class to support our learning and may set home enrichment tasks on there too. We will also post a weekly newsletter on a Friday with some detail about what we have learnt during the week and any reminders about upcoming events.

Summer 2 Guided Reading Texts

Summer 2

Zeraffa Giraffa by Dianne Hofmeyr (illustrated by Jane Ray) is an enchanting picture book based on the true story of a baby giraffe sent as a gift to the King of France in 1826. It follows the epic 4,000-mile journey of the giraffe and her young keeper, Atir, as they sail down the Nile, cross the Mediterranean, and walk 550 miles from Marseilles to Paris

Our school uses Power Maths to teach mathematics, it teaches pupils not only to be fluent in solving mathematical problems but also to solve multi-step problems, reason and explain. Children will be taught through an ‘I do, we do, you do’ approach to ensure that learning is embedded and any misconceptions are addressed early.

Our Topic for Summer 2

Anglo-Saxons and Scots

What changed in Britain after the Anglo-Saxon invasion?
