Welcome to
Class!
Welcome to Panda Class! This is home to a brilliant Year 3 class, with Mrs McGowan to lead our way. We also receive amazing support from Mrs Sedgewick and Mrs Ashton during our busy week.
We hope you enjoy finding out about all the wonderful things we learn and do in our class!
In our final half term, we will have P.E. on Tuesdays (outdoor) and Fridays (indoor), so please make sure your children are dressed in their P.E. kits when they come to school. It is always good to check that that P.E. kits are fully labelled with your child's name on it.
Each week one of the following activities will be set online: MyMaths, Spag.com or TTRockStars. Each activity will be ready for children to complete by the following week.
For those grammar terms that are less familiar to parents and children alike, there is a bbc bitesize link below and a guide to help you support your child's learning.
Our History focus in Summer 2 continues with the Elizabethan era of Tudor period.
Please click below to find out more about our curriculum throughout the year.
A list of 10 spellings will be given each week, which follow a particular spelling rule, and these will be tested on Friday of the following week.
You will be able to log on to SpellShed and practise spellings there too.
Please read to an adult 3 times each week and have your planner signed to be awarded a merit.

Achievements & celebrations
Each week, a child from our class will be recognised for REACHing high through their work and behaviour around the school.
I wonder who will be first this year?
With a positive attitude, respectful manners and willingness to try, it could be anyone's. So go on, show us what wonderful things you can do and let the amazing person that you are shine through!
