Snowy Owls Y3

NOTE: For the FIRST WEEK ONLY the children will have PE on Tuesday (6th) and Friday (9th), the following weeks it will be a Monday and a Friday.

Welcome back to Term 6!

 

I hope you have had a relaxing sunny half term holiday.

 

Below is the main information you need to know for the last term of this school year. 

As the weather is getting warmer, it would be a good idea if the children wore sunscreen to school in the morning and they can also bring some to reapply at lunchtime (own use only).

 

Whole class guided reading:

This term we will finish our whole class guided reading book, ‘The Wild Robot’ by Peter Brown. 

 

 Topic:

This term our topic is all about rivers. We will look at local rivers as well as rivers in the UK and other parts of the world. The children already have some knowledge from KS1 and learnt a bit about the river Nile in our Ancient Egypt topic in September last year.

 

Homework:

Homework will be given out on a Friday and should be returned by the following Wednesday.

On top of the homework given out on a Friday, it would be great if you could read with your child at least three times per week and sign their reading diaries ( they will get Dojo points).

 

Spellings:

Spelling tests will be on a Wednesday.

 

PE:

PE this term will be on a Monday and a Friday 

 

Mondays will be Athletics with Mrs Marah.

Fridays will be American Football with Mrs Dickson

 

. Please send your child to school dressed in their PE kit. PE Kit should consist of the following: navy, black or grey bottoms (shorts/ joggers/ PE skirt), white T-Shirt and navy, black or grey warm hoodie/ top if required (no football kits please!).

It is also essential that the children have a spare pair of shoes on these days (they should have their school shoes on and change into their trainers for PE) to keep the mud and dirt out of the classroom.

 

 

Please can you make sure your child has outdoor shoes or wellies to change into for break and lunch as well as a waterproof coat every day.

Our cloakroom is very small in Snowy Owls so please can I ask that the children only bring the essentials into school (book bag, water bottle (water only please) and packed lunch), no big backpacks please.

As the children are now in KS2 they no longer receive a snack at school, so please send them with a healthy snack (fruit or vegetables are ideal) for break time as well as water only in their water bottles.
