The times tables we are learning are: 4/8 times tables and revising 3, 2, 5 and 10 times tables.

The additional maths facts we are learning are: Finding 10 or 100 more than any 2 or 3 digit number, finding 10 or 100 less than any 2 or 3 digit number, doubles of numbers to 20, halves of doubles to 20, addition and subtraction facts to 20.

If we have extra time at home, this is a good way to help us improve our learning: Discuss our reading with an adult, practise spelling and practise maths facts using TT Rockstars. Please also see our Y3 homework leaflet.

Mr Nash, the Learning Mentor, can normally help sort out any worries or problems about school life. He or senior leaders are on the playground before school each morning or can be contacted via the office.

Our class teacher(s) are always happy to talk to parents and carers about how to help children improve their learning. Catch them at the end of the day to arrange a time to talk, or leave a message at the office. (At morning circle time messages are best passed on via the office/Learning Mentor or senior staff as teachers are greeting the children and starting the day.)
