We are a class of Year 3 children and our teacher is Miss Bate with Mrs Wahby and Miss Barker supporting us.
Our main topics for this year include:
'Awesome Egyptians' where we learn about the history of the ancient civilisation from mummification, the River Nile all the way to Howard Carter and what Egypt is like now.
'Rumble in the Jungle' we look at the geography of the Amazon Rainforest, the climate and animals that live there to the ancient Mayans.
'Victorian Rawdon' we look our local area and the history/grography. We also look at the life of children in the Victorian era and key areas from that time,
Each topic includes a project to be. completed at home and either a class visit or a workshop to excite and engage the children, as well as to enhance the learning experience.
P.E. is currently on Wednesday and Thursday.
On these days please come to school dressed in your PE kit.
Homework is handed out on a Friday and needs to be returned on Tuesday mornings. Homework and diaries will be checked weekly and house points are awarded for effort and accuracy. Reading at least twice a week at home will also be benifical in supporting your childs learning. Please sign the homework diary so we are aware.
Please keep practising your spellings and time tables (plus the linked division facts), as it is so important. Please also practise telling the time (looking at analogue and digital times) at home as this will really help your child in maths lessons.
To keep upto date with information, please check the weekly newsletter sent by the school office, along with the Jotter app that will publish weekly news from Owl class, If you are unable to log into the Jotter app, please request a log in letter from school.

We are using Times Table Rock Stars in school to help the children learn their times tables. You will have your log in on a letter given at the beginning of the year. If lost please ask for another one.
