Year 3 - Pearl

Welcome to Term 6, Pearl Class!

We hope you've had a relaxing half term break and feel ready for the final term of this academic year!

This term there will be learning about Forces in Science, the physical and human geographical features of Florida in Geography and Sikhism in R.E. In addition, there will be lots of opportunities to think about the excitement ahead as they transition to Year 4! The children will meet their next teacher and TA and will spend some time familiarising themselves with the year 4 classroom. You will be informed of dates so that the children will feel as prepared and supported as possible.

You’ll find greater detail of our subject coverage in the Topic Web saved in the resources below along with our timetable and some other information that we hope you'll find useful when supporting your child's learning.

If you need to speak to us or pass on any information, please drop us a line in the contact book (which is checked every morning). If you need a quiet chat then the best way to speak to us is through the office by phone or email.

Some gentle reminders going in to this term:

Children should not be coming in with toys, fidgets or their own pencils/pens. If your child needs a concentration aid or small comfort toy, please talk to Miss Bath or Mrs Cameron so that we can agree on an object for them.
Children need to complete their home learning in pencil, and hand it in so that it can be marked.
Home learning should only take approximately 15/20 minutes. If your child takes longer than this to complete the work, or is finding it too difficult, please let us know as soon as possible.
Children are now in KS2 and we encourage them to become more independent including changing their own reading book once they have been listened to by a member of staff.

We hope you find this information useful in supporting your child in their learning. As an added incentive, you can write the word “FLORIDA!” in your Home School Record book for your child to earn 5 reward points! If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

Home learning is issued as follows:

Monday – English SPAG (Spelling, Punctuation And Grammar) activity book due in Wednesday

Tuesday – Reading

Wednesday – Reading

Thursday – Reading

Friday – Maths Times Tables activity book (to be completed for the following Monday)
