Year 3 Spellings to be tested Friday 5th October

Year 3 Week 4

Week 4 handwriting homework

Please see the two links above for spellings and homework, both due on Friday 5th October.

Spellings and Tables to be tested on Friday 5th October. Children need to show evidence of having practiced their 2x, 5x and 10x tables in their homework books by writing out tables, parents comment to say they have been tested etc., and writing their spellings, using Look, Cover, Say Write Check method. Children also have a handwriting sheet of their weekly spellings stuck into their orange Homework books. Please watch your child forming letters to check they start and finish letters in the right place on the line. This will enable a more fluent, joined style and allow them to join letters correctly.

Thank you for your support,

The Year 3 Team.

Permission Slips

Please can parents return last minute permission slips on Monday morning so that we can get numbers finalised for the trip on the 8th October please.

Thank you for your continuing support.

Y6 homework due 3rd October

The homework for this week is as follows:
Read at least 3 times and ask an adult to sign your reading diary to confirm.

Learn your spellings. Complete detailed sentences and definitions in your homework book.

Use the picture and write a story about what is happening. Remember to focus on sentence structure, conjunctions and descriptive language.

Spellings and Homework Year 3

Year 3 classes have received their homework and spellings today. All classes have their usual 10 spellings. However, this week spellings are also included on their handwriting sheets. Please could children practice both the spellings and handwriting daily for their spelling tests on Friday.

The children have also been reminded to also practice their time tables ready for Friday’s test too.

3J also have an additional piece of maths homework to complete which has been stuck in their homework books. Please complete this on the sheet.

Extra homework: some children have taken it upon themselves and have completed extra homework! How fantastic! Can we please make sure any additional homework that the children may decide to do, is done in homework books so this can be rewarded!

Good luck with the homework guys!

Have a lovely weekend.

Thank you for your continuing support.

Year 3 Jumpers

Please would parents check if they have any additional jumpers that do not belong to your children. There will be 10 house points to each child who brings a jumper back that is not their own.

Let’s get these jumpers reunited with their owners!

Thank you for your continuing support.

Friday 28th September for Year 3

Please could parents and children be aware of the following;

Tomorrow is the PTA bake sale, there will be house points for any Year 3 children that donate cakes in the morning. Bring them straight to class and the PTA will collect them ready for selling after school!

Friday is also ‘Wear Red Day for Zach’ so children can replace an item of their school uniform with a red piece of clothing. Please may children bring any donations into class in an envelope so we can get this money collected safely so it can go to the cause.

Don’t forget children, that tomorrow is also spelling test and times table day. I’m sure you will have been practicing all week but some of you might want to get some last minute practice in tonight ready for tomorrow!

Thank you for your continued support.
