Welcome to Class 3

About Us

Myself and Mrs McBride teach across the week in Class 3, supported by our new teaching assistant, Miss Hope.   We are a mixed age class of 18 Year 4, Year 5 and 6 children.

What Our Week Looks Like

Mrs McBride will be covering PPA on a Monday morning.

Our Forest Schools Leader, Mrs Booth, takes the class down to the forest every other Monday afternoon and we are very lucky to have an Activ Sports coach, Steph, to teach PE on a Thursday afternoon this half term. Please ensure your child has suitable clothes that are named.

Homework

Homework will be set every Monday on Seesaw to be completed by the following Monday.

For the first half term the children have a half-term project in addition to Spelling Shed, reading, MyMaths (Years 5&6) and times tables. 

The MyMaths homework to completed each week is for Years 5 and 6 for the whole term. Year 4 will have MyMaths in the 2nd half term. If you would like your Year 4 child to complete MyMaths in the 1st half term as well, just ask.

For the second half term, pupils will manage their own homework through the suggested ideas given by the teacher in addition to Spelling Shed, reading and MyMaths and times tables.  If there are any questions about homework, please just ask!

We will be really pushing Spellings and times tables this year and children will now be able to practice spellings online with the Spelling Shed website.

We would like all our pupils to read at least three times a week to an adult. Each time they have read, a child will receive a star to add to the reading rocket in their reading record book.  Once they have completed their rocket, they win a prize!

Finally, no equipment (pencil cases, sharpies etc) is allowed in school. Children will be provided with their own pencil case and resources. Please ensure your child has a clean water bottle in school everyday, that goes home at the end of each day. 

Thank you,

Miss Birch
