Year 3
Welcome to Year 3!
Ruby Class is taught by Mrs Gillespie.
Year 3 is an extremely exciting year filled with opportunities to further our learning and challenges!
English and Maths are our core subjects but the children also participate in a range of subjects including: Guided Reading, Science, History, Geography, Computing, Spanish, Music and Physical Education. Handwriting, Times Tables practise and SPAG are also a huge priority in Year 3.
To support your child, please make sure that they learn their weekly spellings and read regularly with them after school. We follow the VIPERS skills when reading, which you can find below. Please ask questions linked to these skills when reading at home. Children should also practise their times tables and can do this at home using ‘Times Tables Rockstars’. As well as this, grammar activities will be set on SPAG.com for your children to complete online.
Maths & English homework is set Monday-Wednesday and Topic homework on Thursdays. Weekends can then be spent practising number fluency (KIRFs) and reading for pleasure. You will find these in children’s blue maths homework books.
Please feel free to click on the 'What We Are Learning' icon to find a 'Curriculum Overview' to find out what we are doing in the term ahead. Finally, don't forget to take a look at our photos in the 'Gallery of Our Learning' area.
