Mrs Beasley and Mr Williams are your Year 3 teachers. Supporting alongside the teachers in Year 3 are Mrs Murphy-Jones and Mrs Jump - Our lovely Year 3 TAs.

Miss Balmer is the Year 3 and 4 Assistant Headteacher and Senco.

The team in Year 3 are extremely experienced and here to help.

What will the children be learning?

In English this term, Year 3 will be using Seal Surfer, Counting on Katherine, Beware of Boys and Stone Age Boy as our stimulus.

As writers, they will be producing a variety of work including diary entry, narrative, non-chronological report and letter writing

This term in Maths, the children will be looking at Place Value of numbers up to 1000 as well as adding and subtracting numbers both mentally and with written methods.

We will also be focussing on recalling our 2,5 and 10 times tables and introducing the 3s and 6s.

Please remember to log on to Times Table Rock Stars as much as possible to keep practising.

PE will be on Monday and Tuesday this year. Please remember the correct kit.
