Year 3 - Parks Class

Welcome to Parks Class

 

Our Class teacher is Miss McCue and our LSAs are Mrs Vaas, Ms Nantaayi and Mrs Jacobs. 

 

This term our learning journey in History is Stone Age, Bronze Age and Iron Age,  Italy in Geography, forces in Science, and seasonal eating in DT.

 

This term we will also be sowing vegetable seeds and hopefully watching them grow.

  

During our class novel time we will be reading a range of exciting books and the children will have the opportunity to vote for their class novels, which will be shared as a whole class.

  

Please ensure your child’s reading diary and reading book comes into school every day.

 

Please also ensure that your child brings a water bottle with them each day and now that the weather is getting warmer please also ensure they have applied sunscreen and bring in a hat.  

  

Monday – Spelling test 

 

Tuesday – PE day. Please remember to come to school in your PE kit including jogging bottoms.

 

Wednesday – Spellings set and homework set. 

   

In Year 3 we don’t have a specific day for show and tell, however if the children receive something they are very proud of or have something that is linked to our learning they are very welcome to bring this into school and we will share as a class.

Things that help us learn

We use My Maths and Times Table Rock Stars to support children’s home learning and we will be continuing to use Google Classroom as our online learning platform in Key Stage 2. Reading books are sent home on a weekly basis which are pitched at your child’s current reading ability. Weekly spellings are sent home to consolidate the SPaG rules the children have been learning that week.
