Hi Year 3,
What a strange start to the year! We are looking forward to welcoming you back to school, although this might be a little different than usual. We look forward to seeing all your faces, either online on in person.
From Monday (11.01.21) each week we will upload a timetable of activities that we hope you will be able to complete. All of the work will be uploaded onto Google Classroom and you can also post back any pictures of the work you have completed. I'm looking forward to seeing your work. Your login details should be in your reading record but please feel free to email if you have any queries about this. There will be a weekly class zoom to check in with how you’ve found the tasks set and a chance to ask any questions.
Stay Safe. Work Hard. Keep Smiling!
If you would like to contact your teacher please feel free to email at any time. Please note that we are all working in school throughout this time and will not always be able to respond straight away.

Grammar will also be an important focus this year. Children will be learning how to use conjunctions such as, when, if, because, although. They will also be learning about pronouns, commas, apostrophes, and, speech marks.
Handwriting expectations remain high, for further information please see our Penpals support for handwriting, on this page.
Children are expected to listen to and discuss a range of texts including, fiction, poetry, plays, non-fiction and reference books or textbooks. They will be using dictionaries to check the meaning of words. Additionally, children will be preparing poems and play scripts to read aloud and to perform, showing understanding through intonation, tone, volume and action. We will be discussing words and phrases that capture the reader’s interest and imagination.
We expect children to read daily and record which pages and books in their reading logs.
We understand that going into the juniors can be big transition for children, our aim is to ‘Inspire, Believe, Achieve!’ we wish for all children to feel happy and safe in school, please, if there is anything that you need to know or you have any worries or concerns about your child, or school life in general then please don't hesitate to contact me.

Thank you for your continued support.
