Dear Parents,

Children need to learn spellings and 3x, 4x, 5x, and 6x tables. This will be the focus for Times Tables Rockstars. Some children are still not accessing the TTRS website regularly to practice. Please ensure that you allow 5-10mins per day, as we are seeing big gains with children who DO practice. Try to read at least three times at home this week and fill in your reading diary. Homework is to complete the worksheet on telling the time. Please support your child with this.

Dear Parents,

Year 3 homework to be completed by 17.5.19

Year 3 Spellings to be tested 17.5.19

Homework this week is to learn the next ten words from the Year 3 National spelling list. Continue to read at home and please fill in your reading diary.

We have now completed most of the times tables, so next week’s TTRS tests will be on the 3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10x tables. PLEASE encourage your child to practice on TTRS – we have some children in year 3 who have not engaged with the program since March!! This will obviously not help them to progress. Other children have had remarkable success, with repeated drill and practice – please help your children to learn this important life skill.

Homework this week is to complete the “Where / wear / we’re” sheet, which should be in your child’s homework book.

Thank you for your continued support.

Dear Parents,

Also, please encourage your child to complete their homework about Birmingham city, which was issued before the Easter holidays (see below) for 10.5.19 or earlier.

“Children will need to make a poster about Birmingham City, and this forms their homework for the next four weeks. Try to include details like basic facts (population, size, etc.), buildings and landmarks, points of interest, reasons to go there, weather and climate, activities to do etc. You can add drawn (preferably) and coloured pictures or printed pictures to your poster. Please try to make it at least A4 in paper size and of presentation standard quality, for display on the wall.  This will support our topic work on Towns and Cities for next term.  The homework is due in on, or before Friday 10^th May.”

Dear Parents,

Please continue to help your children learn their times tables, using TTRS. We have several battles currently taking place between 3B:3P and 3B:3W on TTRS – please allow your children to play as much as possible.

Children should continue to work on their shields, to be ready for 1^st April. Again, we request that you do not send them in before this date, due to restricted storage space. Please learn spellings and complete at least 3x entries in reading diaries with parent signatures.

Thank you for your continued support,

Year 3 week 9 spellings to be tested 15.3.19

Dear Parents,

This week, children should continue to work on Times Tables Rock Stars. We would really appreciate it if you could let your children spend at least 10 mins per day on TTRS, to maximise its impact on their tables recall and accuracy. Thank you.

Please complete your reading (3x) weekly homework, and complete the English homework sheet set (see orange homework books).Please note: Children DO NOT NEED TO CREATE THEIR ROMAN SHIELD YET. We have not done the preliminary work in class for this, so would appreciate if you could not send them in, as we have nowhere to store them!

Thank you for your support,

The Year 3 Team.
