Year 3

Welcome to Year 3! 

We have an exciting term ahead of us. We are all really looking forward to the interesting and engaging work that we will be producing together. 

Throughout the school our main topic is “One Planet Many Worlds” and the focus for Year three will be on Europe. We will be finding out about key human and physical features of European countries and comparing it to the UK.  If you have any books or information about any countries in Europe we would be pleased to borrow them. 

Much of our English work will be linked to our theme but will include writing stories, information leaflets and other non-fiction writing about Europe. 

In Science we will be learning about forces, then light and shadows.   

Homework 

There will be a spelling test on Friday and the children will be given their new spellings on the Monday before. Please make sure your child practises their spellings every day. 

Children will be bringing reading books home and it is still really important that the children are reading every day. Children's reading diaries will be checked on a Friday.  The children all have a log on to Times Table Rockstars and they should be completing 30 mins on the garage or studio each week.

PE 

Our PE day is Wednesday. On these days, we are asking the children to come into school in their full PE kit, including trainers. Please can the children make sure they have suitable outdoor clothing (trainers, jacket, jogging bottoms / trousers).  

Water bottles 

Please can all children make sure they have a labelled water bottle with them each day; they are welcome to fill their bottle up throughout the day at school. 

The Year Three team will be working hard to ensure the children have a happy, productive and successful term. If you have any questions, please email these to schooloffice@sacredheart.peterborough.sch.uk and these will be forwarded to us and we will get back to you. 

 

Thank you for your continued support.
