3W-The Minpins - Mrs Woods and Mrs Harrison
Dream, Believe, Achieve
A huge welcome to Year 3. I am Mrs Woods and I can not wait to share and support your child on their journey through this coming year. We will work hard, have lots of fun and continue to become resourceful and resilient learners. Weekly updates will be posted on Class Dojo of our learning for you to enjoy and share our exciting moments and achievements. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at school or speak to me on the door.
Enjoy, Respect, Succeed
Reading
Children will have a reading book chosen by themselves appropriate to their reading level. Accompanying these books are their reading diaries, where you can write comments on their reading daily. Your child will also be given many opportunities throughout the week to read a variety of texts and will then undertake an online quiz to assess their understanding of the text.
PPA Time
I will be out of class on a Thursday afternoon.
Miss Kolaitis will cover RE and Music. I'm sure they will have lots of fun!

In Year 3, children are expected to complete two to three pieces of homework a week.
Your child has been provided with both CGP English and maths books to complete their homework. Each week, they will be provided with different page numbers in order to complete different tasks from each book!
