Class+3

Name: Mrs H. Tozer Class: 3 Specialist Subject Area: Religious Education Other Responsibilities: Co-ordinator for Mathematics and R.E. Assistant SENCo Welcome to Class 3 it is lovely to meet all the boys and girls again and see how much they've grown and changed over the holidays. Lots of the routines for Class 3 will remain the same as last year so for the children moving up from Class 2 they will have lots of the same routines. As usual we will be working closely with Class 2 again this year - our theme for this term is 'Our Wonderful World of Colour and Light.' Sometimes we have homework on a Friday, please help and encourage your child to complete this and return to school when needed. We will be having PE on a Tuesday, it would be helpful if your child wears earrings to remove them before the lesson or cover them with plasters. Please also remember reading books are changed on a Tuesday and Friday, please return with the reading record signed to have a new book. The reception children (those moving up from the Nursery) will have word books for the first few weeks in readiness for reading books at a later date, please help your child learn to read the words in this book, when they are confident with this they will also have reading books changed twice a week. Sound books will also be given to reinforce the sounds that are taught in class, as they are completed in school so they will be ticked off in the book to keep you up to date with the sounds your child has been introduced to. As with the other classes it is really important to bring a coat to school everyday as it is getting colder and we often go outside in the day.

Our theme this term is Precious Things, please bring into school all the chocolate boxes, pringle tins and sweet wrappers you have been collecting over the holidays. We will be using them for our role play areas and making some precious things to sell in our role play shop. Miss Davies and Mrs Lewis are looking forward to working with classes 2 and 3 again. We give them a big croeso nol to school. Please continue to read regularly with your child and learn the sounds. Revise all the sounds regularly in the sound book and practise letter formation. Year 1 children will also have some spelling words to learn each week. Summer Ahoy me hearties! Our theme this term is Ship Ahoy which we will be sharing with class 2. Our role play pirate ship is beginning to take shape and we can't wait to use it. Class 3 will be using their imaginations and sailing the seven seas with captain Llew and class 2. Also this term we will visiting the beach dressed as pirates, following maps and looking for buried treasure. What will we find? this term we are hoping for some fine sunny weather so please remember hats and sun cream to protect us from the sun. April 2010 Well the Summer Term is under way, we have two new members of staff as Mrs Lewis and Miss Davies have gone off on maternity leave, welcome Mrs Hurley and Mrs Dimmery. We have a busy term in front of us, in readiness for Sports Day and to make the most of the weather we are now doing games outdoors, please make sure outdoor kit is in school everyday so we can take advantage of the good weather. Reading books are still changed Tuesday and Friday and spelling tests are on a Monday for Year 1 pupils. __December 09__ Well we all had a few extra days in our Christmas holidays this year due to the snow, a pity that we missed our Christmas party though! The children have made beautiful cards that I'm sure will make delightful New Year cards, they are all ready to be given out - what a pity the snow stopped them going out for Christmas!! Never mind we had a lovely last day of term - our school trip, make sure you take a look at the pictures. All the children behaved beautifully and had a smashing time. Don't forget school starts back for the children on Wednesday January 6th. Happy New Year everyone, see you in January and thank you for my Christmas cards and gifts, it was very kind and was greatly appreciated!

Our P.E. day is on a Thursday, it is really important to remember shorts and t-shirts for this activity and remove or cover any ear-rings. Please send dinner money and fruit money in on a Monday in a labelled envelope. Pupils are also asked to leave a pair of wellies in school for any outdoor activities.
