Welcome to Class 3W!
Keep scrolling to see what our class have been up to so far this year!
Welcome to Class 3W! Year 3 is a big step for the children as they move from Key Stage 1 to Key Stage 2 and this year the children are encouraged to gain independence by organising themselves and taking responsibility for their own learning.

Curriculum Overview 
Useful Websites
Click here to see what the children in 3H will be learning about this year and to learn more about our learning this term take a look at our newsletter at the top of the page.
The various activities include Spellings and Times Tables. Spellings will be tested on a Friday.
You can also help your child by listening to them read for 15 minutes, 3 times a week which will not only not only expand your child’s vocabulary and ‘ideas bank’ for story writing, but also help them with their spelling! Reading books will be changed regularly.
Your child will also need your help learning their multiplication tables in preparation for the Times Table Challenge in class on a Friday afternoon. Useful strategies include: chanting in order, writing them out in 2 minutes, responding quickly to questions out of order. The Times Table Rockstars website can be used to consolidate this.
PE is on Monday and Wednesday afternoons and the children need to bring their PE kit to school on these days. Please ensure that this is appropriate for the weather.
The children will begin their swimming sessions from the 6th January and go every Friday morning. They gain so much from these lessons and love doing it! Please make sure they have a clean and dry kit every Friday morning.
