Term 6 Learning
English
We will start the term by using the book 'The Firework Maker's Daughter' by Phillip Pullman to inspire our fiction writing. During our whole class reading sessions we will focus on the book and related non fiction texts. We will use our retrieval and inference skills to answer questions around the text.
Maths
This term, we will be learning all about shape and statistics! We will be covering 2D and 3D shapes and their properties, learning to read and interpret graphs and charts and draw our own!
We will continue to learn our 3, 4 and 8 times tables and their related division facts.
Communications
In the first instance, please see us after school.
If you have any urgent queries which cannot be answered after school or by making an appointment then contact us via the school office:
office@wheatfieldprimary.com or the school gateway app.
Home Learning
How can you help at home?
The following is expected to take children an average of 15- 20 minutes maximum each day.
Reading:
|
Spelling:
Each set of spellings will contain the patterns / rules that we have been learning in class and are a way of reinforcing these. Please practise spelling at least 3 times each week with your child. |
Maths:
In Year 3, children need to be able to read digital and analogue clocks (both 12 hour and 24 hour). Continual practice of this at home will be a huge support to their learning in class. |
