Art Afternoons
As part of our Art theme on architecture, we have been examining the work of Frank Gehry, a leading proponent of deconstructivism. Most famous for designing the Guggenheim Museum. We then created 3D models after sketching our own designs.

Dear Parents & Carers,
We would like to warmly welcome you to our Year 3 team. Our team include Mrs Sloan and Miss McCambridge, who are the two class teachers. Mrs Ashley and Mrs Marshall will assist in supporting the children in all areas of their learning while Mrs Kevane will continue to teach French, Music and Computing. Mrs Jones and Mrs Hart also teach in Year 3. Year 3 is an exciting and challenging year and we are very enthusiastic about the year ahead. It may be useful to have some information regarding routine, expectations and home learning.
Reading
Reading is a very important part of your child’s development and is a key indicator of success later in life. In Year 3 the expectations are very high and all children should be reading every day for at least 20 minutes at home. It is important that children develop their comprehension skills as well as their ability to decode words and read fluently. Therefore it is important to ask your child questions about their reading to confirm their understanding of a text. Your child should be completing detailed entries in their reading record nightly to reflect what they have read and understood that day.
Key Facts
It is very important that children develop a quick recall of their key mathematical facts in order to carry out a range of calculations quickly and accurately. All children in Year 3 should be able to fluently recall their multiplication facts and the related division facts with speed. This will help them to prepare for the National end of Year 4 times tables test in June 2026. Please ensure these are practised regularly.
Homework
The children will be set homework twice a week and this is designed to support and develop their learning in school. It is essential that all homework is completed to a high standard and is handed in on time.
English and Maths homework: This is set on Monday and is due on Friday. English homework consists of either a reading comprehension activity or a grammar, punctuation and spelling activity. Maths homework consists of an online MyMaths activity based on the weekly Maths topic.
Spelling: The children will be given a set of spellings every Monday to be practised throughout the week for a test on Friday.
Weekend Homework: This is set on Friday and will either cover RE, Topic or Science. This should be handed back on the following Monday.
PE
Please ensure your child is wearing their PE kit and trainers every Tuesday and Friday for PE lessons.
We hope that your child has a successful and enjoyable year in Year 3 and we look forward to working with you more closely,
Miss McCambridge and Mrs Sloan

Year 3 are Reading Wizards!
To complete our Year 3 Reading Challenge, we need to read twelve books from the Reading Challenge Box. Look out for these books as they have special stickers. There are a selection of books from different authors and different genres.
If we succeed and read all twelve, we will be presented with a certificate and badge at the end of the year. If any of the books are too challenging, then they can be shared at home as a family book. Look at the Year 3 badge below.
Mindfulness
It is also incredibly important that the children have times in the day where they can relax. Please use the link below for different activities that use music, art and crafts and some PE games and also some morning and evening meditations.
