Year 3

Welcome to Fox Class!

Our teacher in Fox Class is Miss Charles. Miss Charles loves all the subjects but especially enjoys reading! We’re also supported by Miss McGreal and Miss Ravat.

Year 3 is a super important year because it is the first year of Key Stage Two. We learn about lots of fun topics throughout the year: Under Attack and Natural Disasters. During Year 3, we practise our reading skills by improving our reading stamina with longer texts. We also continue to use our VIPERS skills during reading comprehension lessons. In writing, we ensure we are writing to fit a purpose and audience using conjunctions and fronted adverbial phrases. In Maths, we learn and practise our 3, 4 and 8 timetables and practise column methods for arithmetic.

Our PE days are Wednesday and Friday, so please send your child to school in their PE kits (a plain red T-shirt with black shorts or leggings and suitable shoes).
