PE and Kit Information
Our PE day is on a Monday.
The PE kit is as follows:
Navy shorts, white polo shirt, white socks, navy joggers, navy jumper and trainers. (Please note: sun hats will be needed during the summer)
Reading
Reading is crucial to everything that children do. We nurture a love of reading and encourage the children to read every day in class and to read for pleasure.
Children should be reading at home as often as possible and at least 5 times a week. Talk with your child about the books they are reading. Just 5 minutes reading a day builds up to many hours over time. This will make the difference to the progress your child makes in reading and their enjoyment of reading.
Please sign your child’s Home School Diary whenever he/she reads at home. Each Friday we monitor how many times each child has read at home and we also award a Reader of the week.
Homework and Reading
Year 3s will also have Maths and English homework on a weekly basis. One of these will be set on Seesaw.
In addition to weekly Maths/English, they will also be expected to read every evening to an adult.
Reading remains a priority and we expect the children to read at least 5 times a week with an adult.
It is really important that with all homework the children are encouraged to complete it independently but then supported when necessary.
Unlocking Learning
All children have a Phonics Bug login and this resource can be used at home to encourage more reading. Please support your child in using the following websites.
Remember that your child has usernames and passwords for Education City, Times Tables Rock Stars and Spelling Shed in their diaries. Please use them at home to support their learning.
