Welcome to Class 3

About Us

We are a mixed age class of Year 5 and 6 children who are taught by myself, Miss Davenport and our teaching assistant, Mrs Gill. For a small part of the week, Mrs Battrick will be covering PPA sessions.

What Our Week Looks Like

Our Forest Schools Leader, Mrs Battrick, takes the class down to the forest every Monday afternoon. Again, please ensure your child has suitable clothing, especially for the colder and wetter weather.

Homework

Homework for the first half term is the project. In addition, children are expected to: read daily; practise their spellings on Spelling Shed; practise their times tables; and complete their weekly MathShed.

For the second half term, pupils will continue with their weekly maths, spellings, times tables and reading.

We are really pushing Spellings and times tables and children are able to practise spellings online with the Spelling Shed website. Children can practise their times tables on 'Hit the Button', on MathShed or in their times tables books. They will be tested on their spellings every Monday and on the focus times table every Friday. 

We would like all our pupils to read at least three times a week to an adult. Each time they have read, a child will receive a star to add to the reading rocket in their reading record book.  Once they have completed their rocket, they win a prize! Regular readers will also be entered in a prize draw each half term to win a book.

Finally, no equipment (pencil cases, sharpies etc) are allowed in school. Children will be provided with the resources they need. This also includes trading cards, toys, teddies or anything else that is not needed in school.

Please ensure your child has a clean water bottle in school everyday, that goes home at the end of each day. 

Thank you,
