Welcome to 3VC

Welcome to Year 3/4

Welcome to our Class Page!

I'm Mrs Vedvik and have the privilege to be working with the fantastic pupils in 3/4VC. I am in school Monday to Thursday

English

In English, we will write narratives based upon "The Boy, The Mole, The Fox and The Horse", then further practising key writing skills by drafting a persuasive holiday brochure and collating a report on Rivers, linked to our Geography work. Children will also work on reading and comprehension skills every day. Spelling is taught in school in weekly lessons.Please support your child by hearing them read each night at home too. Reading raffle tickets are given every time your child's reading diary is signed and returned!

Maths

Over the course of the term, we will be exploring multiplication ansd division, before learning about length and perimeter. This will be followed by fractions work. . Every week the children will be completing their weekly arithmetic, which focuses on fluency in times tables and the four number operations. In June, Year 4 children must complete a times tables test to check they know all their tables from 1-12x. In Y3, we revisit the 2x, 5x, 10x, then focus on the 3x, 4x and 8x times tables and their related division facts. We have TTRockstars for children to use at home and the 'Hit the Button' game is also popular and helps build number sense and fluency. Please support your child by practising these times tables.

Supporting your child at home

If you can do anything at home, please support your child by hearing them read as often as you can. We will try to hear them read in school and support their learning with whole class comprehension but 1:1 reading really does help them progress in all subjects. We will learn the times tables but little extras at home will help.  Children will also have half-termly topic homework activities to choose from.

If you have any questions or concerns please contact Mrs Vedvik on the door at the start or end of the day.

Alternatively, please use the ks2@etchells.stockport.sch.uk email address and Mrs Collins (our phase leader) will get back to you.
