Homework
In Year 3, the children are not given homework books and are not set worksheets to complete. Instead, we would like every child to spend time reading at home. Alongside reading, spellings will be set once week, which your child will be tested on.
If you would like to do more at home with your child, the following would be beneficial to their learning:
Times Tables - Spend 10 minutes a day practising the times tables up to x12.
Time - Spend time teaching your child to tell the time on an analogue clock, 12-hour digital clock and the 24-hour digital clock.
Money - Ensure your child can identify the different coins and notes and understands their value. Can add up money and work out what change is required. This can be done informaly in small doses while at the shops.
Weight and Measurement - To be able to understand grams, kilograms, millilitres and litres. This can be done in the kitchen baking cakes or making dinners with your child.
Reading Books - All children have been given a book to take home and read. Please ensure the book is returned to school when it is finished to enable your child to take another book home.
Also, please ensure your child is able to tie their own shoelaces, knows their home address and can spell their own last name, along with the parents, in case of an emergency.
If this is done consistently throughout the year, your child will make fantastic progress.
