WELCOME TO MRS FARLEY'S

YEAR 3 CLASS

I hope you have all had a wonderful week off.  I am very much looking forward to being back in the classroom for the rest of the term.

We have lots to look forward to, including a very special trip to Bridgewater Hall to see the Halle Orchestra perform, as well as performing our very own class assembly.

General Information

In Year 3 children are asked to bring their reading books and diary to school on a daily basis.  This will enable me to provide a comment related to when a child  has taken part in Guided Reading or a 1 to 1 reading session. 

Reading diaries are also to be used by the children to record their independent reading and for parents/carers to provide feedback or make comments on the reading they have done with their child.  Children's books will be changed on a weekly basis with the day written on the inside of each child's reading diary.

Snack

Children are invited to bring their own snacks to be eaten during morning or afternoon break times.  Snacks should be a healthy food choice such as fruit or a cereal bar.  Chocolate bars and crisps are not considered to be healthy snacks.

Homework

English and Maths homework will be set each Friday and should be completed and returned the following Friday.  Any homework set will reinforce learning related to basic maths skills and spelling patterns. The children will also have a spelling test and a times tables test every Friday.  In addition to this, the children will receive various additional homework activities throughout the year related to the creative topics.

P.E.

P.E. sessions will take place each Monday and Friday, although this may be subject to changes throughout the school year.  Please ensure a full P.E. kit is brought to school and that items are clearly labelled.
