Class Three

Welcome to Class 3

We are a class of Year 3 & 4 children. Our teachers are Mrs Draper & Mrs Hinxman.

We hope you enjoy looking at some of the activities that we will enjoy this year. 

Our Learning

Class 3 cover a range of interesting topics across the school year. The yearly overview provided gives an insight to some of the activities your child will be participating in and experiencing each term.

Class Information and Homework

We have regular P.E. lessons and active minutes throughout the week. Our regular in school P.E session is on Friday PM. Please have a full and correct P.E kit, suitable for indoor and outdoor lessons, available at all times.

Class 3 will be attending swimming lessons this term on Monday PM. A full kit is required each week. Long hair should be tied up securely, or a swimming cap can be worn. Jewellery must not be worn.

Spellings are set on EdShed and a weekly quiz will take place every Friday.

Activities are assigned on Mathletics and TT Rockstars for all children to complete every week.

Year 4 children will take the Multiplication Tables Check in June 2025. This statutory assessment aims to test fluent recall of times table facts. Pupils are asked 25 random facts and should try to answer in 6 seconds or less. To prepare for the check, pupils should use the Soundcheck game on TTRS, as this is the most similar to the real thing. Maths work and support in school will all help pupils to do their best. A recommended time of 20 minutes play on TimesTables Rock Stars across the week has also been shown to increase performance. 

Reading in Class 3

All of the children are strongly encouraged to read daily and to foster a love of reading, choosing to do it for pleasure.

Books are shared regularly and celebrated in class and we have daily reading time in school. Children are rewarded for reading at home or with an adult with Class Dojos.

We expect all children to read at least 4 times a week at home.
