Term 1 Learning
English
We will start the term by using the book 'Leon and The Place Between' by Angela McAllister to inspire our fiction writing. During our whole class reading sessions we will focus on extracts from the story 'The Greatest Magician in the World' to support us with our inference and retrieval skills.
Maths
This term, we will be learning all about place value and number.
We will be beginning to learn our 3, 4 and 8 times tables and their related division facts. Alongside this we will continue to revise our 2, 5 and 10 times tables.
Communications
We have created a year 3 YouTube channel -

Home Learning
How can you help at home?
The following is expected to take children an average of 15- 20 minutes maximum each day.
Reading:
|
Spelling:
Each set of spellings will contain the patterns / rules that we have been learning in class and are a way of reinforcing these. Please practise spelling at least 3 times each week with your child. |
Maths:
In Year 3, children need to be able to read digital and analogue clocks (both 12 hour and 24 hour). Continual practice of this at home will be a huge support to their learning in class. |
