Year 3 Golden Assembly Awards

This week Mrs Doyle and I have been really impressed with Ignacy. He has been much more focused in class – especially in his English lessons. It’s been great to see him join in the whole class story map with enthusiasm. This week, he has contributed very valuable ideas, in his group, for suspense story writing. It has been lovely to see Ignacy glow with pride and respond so positively to the praise he has been given this week.

Tillie deserves a special mention for always trying her best in every aspect of her learning as she always has focus and does not fuss. Also this week, Tillie has obviously thought about the golden rule ‘taking care of our school’ because she has been a tidying superstar. She has been a great organiser not only in the classroom but in the corridor too, making sure children’s coats are on their pegs and book bags are in the box. Well done!

Also Jake deserves a special mention this week for making good choices, particularly when choosing who to play with and how to play appropriately at break time and lunchtime. Mrs Doyle and I have noticed this change and are very proud of you for making these choices by yourself with very little encouragement. Well done!

This week Year 3 managed to get 16 readers in the reading raffle - a great job! Lets see if we can improve on this further next week. However, congratulations to both Anya and Koby, who was drawn from the reading raffle, and won themselves a book of their choice. 

 Yesterday, your children brought home a new set of spellings. This week they are learning the meaning and spelling of homophones and near homophones. The spellings proved tricky last week because not only did the children have to remember how to spell each word but also had to select the correct one to use within a sentence. More practice this week should ensure better results. Also Maths homework has been set. If I could ask for the homework to be returned by Wednesday, it will be possible for me to mark them and send an activity home over the holidays to support their learning.

Tuesday and Wednesday next week is parent/ teacher interviews. Targets will be set for your children and will be shared with you on the evening. It is an opportunity for us to get together and celebrate your children's successes and their next steps to ensure they make good progress throughout the year. Please make an appointment if you haven't yet made one. 

Have a lovely weekend, see you Monday.

Miss Kerry and Mrs Doyle :) xx
