Year 3 - Pearl

Welcome to Pearl Class page!

Hello and welcome to Pearl class!

We hope that you’ve all enjoyed a relaxing summer and are ready for the exciting adventures of moving into Key Stage 2! Your teachers this year are Miss Bath (Monday – Wednesday) and Mrs Olejnik (Thursday & Friday). Our class TAs are Mrs Chappell, Mrs Elgar, Mrs Munns and Mrs Macauley. You’ll find greater detail of our subject coverage overview on our Topic Web and class page but here is some helpful information as we get started.

PE this year will be Outdoor on Mondays and Indoor on Thursdays. Appropriate indoor and outdoor PE kit needs to be in school every day. Please refer to our uniform policy. Children who do not have appropriate kit (including trainers for outdoor PE) will not be allowed to take part and will be sent to another class with work. A letter will be sent home informing you if this occurs.

SNACK TIME

As part of Healthy Schools, could we remind you that at snack time the children should have a healthy snack (such as fruit, vegetables, cheese and crackers or breadsticks). The children should also bring in a drink of water in a named bottle.

HOME LEARNING

Reading is an essential part of our learning and we expect the children to read at least 4 times a week at home (even if only for 5 minutes!), which needs to include their schoolbook at least once. We will be encouraging the children to try more adventurous book choices in school and hope they’ll enjoy doing so!
Home learning should only take approximately 15/20 minutes. If your child takes longer to complete the work, please let us know using the contact book.
If your child has not completed their homework for the week they may be asked to stay in for a few minutes at lunchtimes to complete it.
This year we are also sending home weekly spellings in the Home School Record and will be having an informal assessment every week so keep an eye out for those!

Home learning is as follows:

Monday – Spelling and Grammar activity book (due in by Wednesday)

Tuesday – Reading

Wednesday – Reading

Thursday – Reading

Friday – Maths Times Tables activity book (due in by Monday)

There will be a timetable at the front of the home learning books, please only do the pages allocated.

Thank you for taking the time to read our class page. More detailed information about our term can be found in the Termly Information links below as well as a Visual Timetable if your child prefers pictures! If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to get in touch with us!

See you soon!
