Year 3

Welcome to Year 3! The children have already settled in well and made a fantastic start to the year, demonstrating remarkable enthusiasm and dedication in their learning. Meet the Year 3 team Miss Baker – Class Teacher My name is Miss Baker, and I am delighted to have joined the team at Sudell Primary School. I have been teaching for 20 years and feel truly passionate about helping children learn, grow, and succeed. I have a busy and happy family life with my partner, my three children, two stepchildren and our dog, Chip. In our classroom, I aim to create a safe, welcoming, and positive environment where every child feels valued, confident, and inspired to work hard and do their best. I love music and am especially passionate about encouraging a love of singing. Outside of school, I enjoy making special memories with my family and watching musicals at the theatre, which always brings me so much joy. PE days In year 3 our PE days are every Monday and Thursday. Please send children in with their PE kit and trainers on these days. Homework Incentive Reminder A reminder that the children in Year 3 are working towards earning a fantastic end-of-term reward. Each time children complete their reading or homework, they will earn a special ‘DidiDot’ sticker which is added to our classroom chart. If they collect all 20 stickers by the end of the term, they will enjoy a special reward treat! Weekly homework includes reading at least three times a week, weekly spelling practice and either a SPaG or maths worksheet. All homework is posted on Class Dojo every Friday afternoon, and children have until the following Thursday to complete it. Homework is now recorded in class - if children bring it in, they can earn between 5 and 10 Dojos. Children are also encouraged to use TT Rockstars regularly to practise their times tables, so please ask if you need your child’s login details. https://play.ttrockstars.com/auth/school (https://play.ttrockstars.com/auth/school) If you would like any extra resources - such as arithmetic/handwriting sheets or additional practice in a particular area - please just let me know. I’m more than happy to help!
