Welcome to Year Three

In Year 3 we visited the Lunt Fort as part of our Roman topic and learned how to march like Romans and train Roman horses. We also had a Roman themed day which included making Roman food, designing and creating mosaics and some Roman dancing.

Homework

There are normally given four pieces of homework each week, as detailed below.

MATHS using Mental Maths Books - on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday (to be marked the following day)

TIMES TABLES - Given on Thursday - (tested the following Thursday)

LITERACY - Given on Thursday- (to be handed in by following Thursday).  This will often a research task linked to our topic.

SPELLINGS - Given on Friday (to be tested the following Friday)

In addition to this, children are encouraged to read every day at home. Please record on their reading record any time you hear them read.

Ways parents can help:

Encourage your child to read the time, measures and amounts of money.
Encourage your child to talk about characters and settings in stories.
Encourage your child to understand the importance of healthy eating and exercise in keeping healthy.

As a guideline, we expect children in Year 3 to spend approx. 1½ - 2 hours on their homework each week.
