Welcome to Year 3!

Our team is made up of Mr Cooley (class teacher), Mrs Brown (TA)and Mr Hargreaves (SSA), as well as Mrs Simpson (reading volunteer).  Mrs Hornsby takes the class on a Thursday. 

We are really excited for all the learning opportunities the children will have over the next year and we can not wait to share our journey with you!

On this page, you will find our curriculum map for the year, weekly spellings, suggestions for home learning experiences as well as updated photographs of some of the super learning that goes on. 

Class information

PE/ Games: This will be on Fridays for this half term. Please ensure that the children have their PE kits in school, including pumps or trainers please.

Outdoor Learning: This will be on Wednesdays this half term. The children are to come in suitable outdoor clothing with a change of shoes and socks on this day.

Reading: The children will be have the opportunity to have their reading book changed whenever they are ready. Our reading volunteer, Mrs Simpson will hear the children read on Tuesdays and Thursdays in addition to the daily guided reading your children will do with and unseen text in the classroom.  Please know that the children can read more if they like, this is just the minimum requirement expected. The children are to bring their reading book into school daily, signed by an adult at home. Any child that has their book signed three times weekly will be given a raffle ticket and has the chance of winning a prize at the end of the week. 

The Key Stage 2 maths learning starts with the place value of 3-digit numbers.  Using base-10 to investigate these numbers helps us to understand the value of hundreds, tens and ones, and how they inter-relate.
