Year 3 Emerald

Welcome to Year 3 Emerald!

Our class teacher is Miss Ransley. There are also lots of lovely adults who help us each day based in Lower Key Stage Two. These include Mrs Smith, Mrs Neild and Miss Jamil. Year 3 is an incredibly exciting year as the children have now moved up to their first year in Lower Key Stage 2. In Year 3 we become more responsible for ourselves and follow the three key school rules which are ‘Be ready’, ‘Be respectful’ and ‘Be safe’.

 

P.E

 

Our P.E days are Wednesdays and Fridays. We need to have our PE kit in school on these days, our kit should include:

Indoor PE

Outdoor PE

– Black tracksuit bottoms
– Black hoody
– Black pumps/ trainers

 

Reading

Reading is very important to us and we are always looking for opportunities to promote our love of reading. We will be bringing a reading book home each week that will either be from the ‘Year 3 Book Spine’ or from the RWI phonics programme.  As well as this, we will bring home a “reading for pleasure” book. This is a book which can be enjoyed as a family at any time of the day. Books are changed every Monday and it is very important that these are in school every day so that children can practice reading both at home and in school. Each child also has a reading bookmark in their bookbag which can be signed each time you read together at home. When the bookmark has been signed 10 times it can be put into the half termly raffle for the chance to win a book!

 

We also have some year group focus authors who we learn more about throughout the year. These are:
Autumn: Lucy Rowland                                                                               Spring: Roald Dahl                                                                          Summer: Oliver Jeffer
