Welcome to the Year 3 class page
If your child is in Year 3 then they will have started their learning journey into the Key Stage 2 Curriculum, which runs from Year 3 to Year 6. On this page you will find information about the curriculum, which your child will follow this year and the learning which will take place across both Core and Foundation subjects. Children will be introduced to the Dictionary and Thesaurus as they develop their spelling and vocabulary choices when writing. Our Reading spine allows the children to follow a key text each half term, which is developed through a range of key supporting media. We will focus on developing our reading comprehension using VIPERS skills for reading – Vocabulary, Inference, Prediction, Explaining, Retrieval and Summarising. We believe that our children learn best when their learning is enhanced through creative lessons and supportive teaching from the Year 3 staff.
We really appreciate parental support particularly when helping with homework. The task set are related to what we have covered in class that week and provides a chance for your child to consolidate their learning.
Children will require their PE bags in school for lessons, which take place on Monday and Wednesday.
Children in Y3 are allowed to bring a healthy snack, such as a piece of fruit, for their morning break and a bottle of water.
