High Legh Primary School
Welcome to Class 3!
Our class teacher is Miss Walton and we have Mrs Reszka as our teaching assistant.
Homework
This year, homework will be slightly different and will be given as and when needed. This could be at given time, for example if I feel a child/group of children/the whole class needs more practise on an area of learning after the lesson in school, I will give a related activity as homework. This homework may be a worsheet, or it may be online. Now and again, I may do a one-off homework activity relating to a topic. Please check your child's reading diary each afternoon for any additional homework.
Homework will also include:
Reading at least three times a week.
Regular times table practice - at least 20 minutes per week.
Weekly spellings to practise.
PE
Our P.E days are Wednesday and Friday. Please ensure that children come to school in their P.E kit on these days. This half term, the children will be developing their tag wrestling and tennis skills.
Reading
Children will be given the opportunity to change their reading books as and when they need to. Please make sure they have their reading books and diaries in their bags everyday, so they can be ready to change their book or be read with.
Group reading will be carried our as a whole class reading session two times a week.
We will read a book together in class each term and the children will also get an opportunity to enjoy reading independently in class.
Our class book is:
Evie and The Animals
by Matt Haig
