Key information
Homework
Homework will be given out on a Friday and will be due back the following Friday. Homework will either be literacy, maths or topic based. Each week your child will also be given a spelling activity to try.
PE
Your child’s PE days will be Tuesday and Thursday. Your child should come to school ready in their PE kits and trainers on these days.
Your child will have Forest School every other Thursday. On these days, your child should come in their Forest school kit and bring their PE clothes to change into.
Reading
Confident Year 3 readers will be able to choose a book from the school library. We have a new scanning system in the library. When children have finished reading a book, it will be scanned back in by a member of staff. Children can then take out a new book.
For most children in Year 3, we won't ask you to fill in a reading record/ books. However, please continue to read daily with your child whenever possible – aim for 20 minutes a day.
Some children, who are finding aspects of reading or phonics difficult, will continue to receive Little Wandle keep up sessions in small groups. They will also be given a reading record book. Please click on the link below to access the parent area on the Little Wandle website with information and ideas to support your child at home.
Phonics bloom have some fun games you can play at home:
