Homework Expectations
In Year 3, children are expected to read every night at home in order to develop their fluency, comprehension and vocabulary. All children have a homework diary in which they should record which page of their book they are up to. This diary will be checked weekly to ensure children are completing their reading homework.
Children will receive a copy of the spellings for each half term at the beginning of each new half term. Spellings will be tested in school on a Friday
In addition to this, children receive a page of math's homework per week. This goes home on a Tuesday and must be back in school the following Monday. If math's homework is not handed in on time then children can complete this in homework club on Monday lunchtime.
During Year 3, all children will be expected to know the following times tables: x2, x3, x4, x5, x8 and x10. These will be tested regularly to ensure they have quick responses. Please practise these with your children.
P.E..
We have P.E. Monday and Thursday for this half term.
Please ensure that your child comes to school on these days wearing their sports kit. Kit should include school PE t-shirt or yellow or purple polo shirt, a school jumper, black tracksuit bottoms (or shorts) and trainers.
Maths
Please encourage children to use Times Table Rock Stars to practise their times tables. It's a brilliant resource and makes times tables fun!
