Maple Class
Teacher: Miss S Rich
The Year 3 Classroom
This half term, our main topic will be The Romans. Within the curriculum this half term we will also be studying Forces and Magnets within Science and Margarete Steiff as part of our DT project. Our class book for this half term is 'The Wild Robot' by Peter Brown.
Homework will be handed out every Friday and should be completed and returned by Wednesday. Homework tasks are designed to reinforce what we have been learning in class and provide additional practice.
PE will take place on Mondays and Wednesdays. The lessons will focus on football and hockey. Please ensure your child comes to school with a complete PE kit, a plain tracksuit for colder days and appropriate footwear.
Regular reading at home is vital to your child’s progress. Please encourage children to read every day and record this in their reading record. We check reading records weekly every Monday, and any support you provide at home makes a significant difference.
End-of-term assessments in Reading, Writing and Mathematics will take place at the end of November. These assessments will help us evaluate your child’s progress this term and put in place further challenge or support. Reports to parents will then be sent home at the end of term.
