Class 3 - Year 3/4

Welcome to Class 3 - Year 3 & 4

Hello! My name is Miss Wells, and I am the teacher of Class 3, which includes children in both Year 3 and Year 4. Throughout the week, we are fortunate to be supported by Mr. Green and Mrs. Bond.

This term, our topic is Where do Rivers come from? We will be learning all about rivers, where they come from, their different features and where they can be found around the world. We will also be investigating and visiting our local rivers to see how they are used by our community.

This term promises to be an exciting journey of discovery, inquiry and global awareness!

The curriculum in Class 3 will continue to develop children's skills, knowledge, and understanding across all subjects. The core elements of their learning are centered around English, maths, science, and RE. Excellent progress in these areas will provide a strong foundation for development in other areas. You can find a copy of our termly overview below. 

This year, some of our Year 3 children will also be preparing for the Sacrament of Reconciliation and the Eucharist (First Holy Communion).

I am very excited about the year ahead and look forward to collaborating with parents, carers, and our pupils to make this a truly special and memorable year at St. Mary’s.

 

General reminders:

  • PE: Children in Class 3 have PE on Wednesdays. They should come to school in their labeled PE uniform on these days, without earrings or jewelry.
  • Homework: Homework is set on a Friday and returned the following Thursday. 
  • Spelling tests: Spellings are sent home on Friday and tested the following Friday. Spellings should be practiced weekly on Spelling Shed. Please contact me via Seesaw if you misplace your child's Spellingshed information.
  • Times tables: Times tables are imperative in KS2 and should be practiced regularly both in school and at home. Please contact me via Seesaw if you misplace your child's Times Table Rockstar information.
  • Reading: Reading quizzes can be completed whenever a child has finished a book. They may select a new book based on their quiz result.
