Year 3/4: Miss Corrigan 2023 - 2024

Welcome to our Year 3/4RC class page.

This year, the teacher in Y3/4 is Miss Corrigan.

I am excited to be teaching you for a busy last half term of the year!

I am sure you will all agree that reading continues to be a focus for the children this year.  Although we do a lot of reading activities each day in class, it is also important that reading is also completed at home each week. The children will bring home two books each week, a book matched to their reading level and a reading for pleasure book.  These will be changed each Monday if they have a signature in their reading diary to show they have completed their book.  As the reading for pleasure books are longer stories than the children received in KS1, they may take a few weeks to read.  This is expected so please do not feel pressured to change their reading for pleasure books weekly.

Spellings will be sent home on Mondays and put on our class page and there will be an informal spelling test in class on Fridays.

In English we will be reading, Old Shell, New Shell and writing a non chronological report. 

In Guided Reading we will be reading 'Aesops Fabel's' and The Worst Witch.

In Maths we will be looking at solving word problems using multiplication and division as well as time and reviewing our two, five and ten times tables.

In History we are going to be learning about Ancient Egypt, and in Geography the children will be looking at London.

We will of course be practicing our creative skills in our music lessons as well as a fun filled DT week!

Homework will continue to be set as a grid, with the children expected to complete one question a week from the grid. We also expect children to have read 3 times a week, practiced TT Rockstars and their spellings. Reading at home will be monitored weekly.

PE this half term will be on Wednesdays and Thursdays.
