Year 3 Update

Congratulations to all Year 3 students for a positive start to this year!

Upcoming learning:

During the next fortnight, Year 3 students are undertaking learning in the following areas:

Literacy: In reading, in the next fortnight, we will be setting routines and learning about the features of non-fiction texts.

In writing, in the next fortnight, we will be learning about persuasive writing.

Maths: In the next two weeks will be refreshing our knowledge on place value and addition.

Inquiry: Our topic this term is 'How can I create a healthy me?' 

Students will be investigating the connection between a healthy body and mind to contribute to healthy and active environments.  

S.E.L.: We will be forming positive relationships, working in teams, dealing effectively with conflict by recognising student's emotions and values, as well as their strengths and challenges. We will continue to work closely with the new school values of, kindness, respect and resilience. We will use these values to understand The Matrix of Expected behaviours in and around the school.

News and reminders 

Hats: Please remember hats are required throughout terms 1 (until April) and 4. Students without hats will be asked to sit/play under the shade sail on the courtyard steps.

Drink bottles: Please remember to bring a drink bottle to school every day, but more importantly throughout the summer terms. It saves disruption to your child's learning when this is accessible within the room.

Meet the teacher: Tuesday 13th February. Classrooms will be open from 3.30-4.30pm, we would love to see all families pop in to have a look around your child's classroom, meet their teacher if you haven't already yet, and get a feel for year 3. It is a great way to understand things your child may come home talking about throughout the year also.

NAPLAN:  Year 3 and 5 will be participating in NAPLAN in March. This will be throughout week 6. If you have any questions regarding this please see your child's teacher.
