Year 3 @ Mount Street Primary 

Welcome to the Autumn Term in Year 3!

This year, our class will be named after the inspirational person Mary Anning. She was a girl who grew up in Lyme Regis in the early 1800s. Her family was poor so Mary helped her father collect and sell fossils found along the cliffs. She became fascinated with the strange bones she found. At the time, girls and women were not encouraged to become scientists so Mary worked hard and made several important fossil discoveries. Her findings helped people learn more about dinosaurs and life on Earth millions of years ago. She is inspirational because her story shows us to follow your interests, work hard and never let obstacles stop you from achieving great things. 

Our Class teachers

Our class teacher is Mrs Clement-Stallard (Mrs C-S) and the class is supported by Miss Dann who is our class Teaching Assistant. Mrs C-S's PPA will be covered by a member of staff. 

Class Dojo

If you haven't already done so, please sign up for our Class Dojo. Here you will find messages from your class teacher that will help you keep up to date with what is happening in class and any forthcoming events. You can also send a message to your child's class teacher via Dojo and they will get back to you as soon as possible. 

Useful information: 

Home learning: This will be set at the following times: 

English and Maths handed out on Monday to be handed in on Friday.

Reading – 10 minutes reading daily. Reading books and diaries need to be in school each day. We ask that an adult signs the reading diary and it is handed in at least once per week. 

Spellings: Set on a Monday ready for a Friday spelling test.

Times Tables:  TT Rock Stars daily.

Games and PE:

Children will need to wear their PE kits to school on our PE days. Please make sure that they are wearing their kit on the correct days only – Wednesday and Friday. I will always let you know via Dojo if this changes for any reason. Children with long hair MUST have it tied back for PE lessons and stud earrings MUST be covered with tape (that is brought from home) or they will need to be removed.

Kit: black trainers, black shorts or tracksuit bottoms and the PE top provided by school. PE hoodies are ONLY to be worn on PE days.

Reading for pleasure:  Remember that you can complete Accelerated Reader quizzes at home if you don't have time to do it in school.  Use this link: Welcome to Renaissance Place (renlearn.co.uk)

E-Safety

As so many of us are spending more and more time online, it is important that the children have a secure knowledge of how to be safe.  We will discuss various issues regarding this each week.  If your child or yourself have any questions linked to their online world, then please do not hesitate to get in touch or have a look at some of the links below.
