What to expect in Year 3.

Mrs Meech will be teaching Year 3 from Mondays to Fridays and the class will be supported by teacher assistant, Ms Mundy.  We warmly welcome new students, Lewis Perkins and Miami Bronson to the class. This year we look to cover the curriculum requirements of Year 3 with a focus on:

• Mathematics: the numbers to 10 000, multiplication and division facts and efficient strategies for addition and subtraction.
• English: creating a variety of text types, extending our reading strategies, and further developing our knowledge of spelling.
• Science: Biological & Earth and Space.
• HASS: how things have changed over time and landmarks in Australia. 

Students require a library bag for borrowing and PE uniform may be worn on Mondays and Fridays.  Homework will commence in Week 2 and will include Home Reading, Spelling and Mathematics.  Students should be spending no more than the equivalent of 30 minutes a day.  Homework is to be returned to school each Friday.  Parents are expected to view, sign and return the school diary daily.  If you have any concerns or questions, please do not hesitate to contact me via a note in the school diary or phone the school office.  Ms Mundy and I are looking forward to working with the Year 3 students and having a happy and productive year. Regards, Mrs Meech
