Welcome to Class 3!

Mrs Williams is the Class Teacher

A note from Mrs Williams…  Wow, here we are in the final Summer half term, and what a great topic to end the year with, Road Trip USA!

Below are some reminders...
P.E.- PE lessons will continue on Fridays - delivered by the Lancashire Sports Partnership.
Swimming - continues on a Monday afternoon at Tarleton Academy. We leave school at 1.30pm and return at the end of the school day.
Spelling—We continue with the Spelling Shed Programme which embraces the knowledge of patterns and rules as well as the learning of spellings from the statutory words, common exceptions and personal spellings. Your child will be taught spelling daily in class and bring home a pattern / rule to focus on each week. Their understanding will be assessed each Friday. I am delighted with the progress seen last half term.
Reading— Thank you to so many parents that are supporting your child’s reading at home. Please continue to listen to your child read as often as you can and record this in the Reading Record book. Your child will read with me in a focused Guided Reading group on a weekly basis, as well as on a daily basis within lessons. Each child is responsible for changing their own book when needed, with-in the stage they are on. We are focusing on detailed understanding and comprehension of texts this year so please try to talk about the main events of the story / characters in the book / where the story takes place/ what will happen next etc.
Times Tables - Please encourage your child to learn their times tables as we practise them every week. The children will be given the opportunity to earn certificates as they progress. Please note it is important they understand the related division facts: 2 multiplied by 5 = 10 so 10 divided by 5 = 2. Each child has a log in for Times Tables Rock Stars, please ask if these have been mislaid, the children can log on at home for extra practice. If your child is in Year 4 they will be participating in a National on-line Times Tables check in June. See separate leaflet.
English / Maths Homework - This continues to be sent home every Thursday to be completed by the following Thursday. Topic Homework ideas are on a separate sheet and are optional and ongo-ing.
Snacks
Named water bottles and healthy snacks may be bought into school—toast is available - £1.00 for a week.
Suncream and hats may be bought into school if needed.
Please feel free to email me with any concerns or make an appointment in the office to see me.

Thank you, for your continued support,
