Welcome to Year 3

Welcome to our Year 3 class! Miss Hawker is the class teacher, with learning supported by Mrs Blythe. We work together to create a happy, supportive classroom where children can enjoy their learning, build confidence and make great progress.

English

In English, we use Ready Steady Write. Throughout the year, children explore a range of high-quality texts which inspire a variety of writing outcomes. We develop children's reading, vocabulary, spelling, handwriting and writing skills across the curriculum.

Maths

In Maths, we follow White Rose Maths, developing children's understanding through practical activities, discussion, problem-solving and reasoning. Children build secure foundations in key areas of maths and develop confidence and fluency with number.

Reading and Spellings

We use Ready Steady Read and Ready Steady Spell to support the development of children's reading, fluency and spelling skills.

Homework is provided to help you support your child with their reading and spellings at home. All homework information, including what your child is currently working on, can be found on ClassDojo.

Keeping in Touch

ClassDojo is our main way of communicating with parents and carers. We use it to share learning updates, curriculum information and general day-to-day information, including reminders and important calendar dates.

Please keep an eye on ClassDojo throughout the year to stay up to date with what is happening in Year 3.
