Year 3 2024 - 2025
Mrs Heath
Miss Baron
Welcome to Braeburn Class!
I am Mrs Heath and I am delighted to be working in Year 3. Year 3 is the first year of the juniors and is a very exciting year! Its the time when we develop our independence skills and become much more mature.
Things will work slightly differntly this year as we will be working just as Year 3 in the morining, but then combining with the Year 4 class in the afternoon. The children will have a combination of myself and Miss Baron teaching them in the afternoons. On Thursday afternoon Mrs Spence will teach Year 3 and 4 together. We are very lucky to have Mrs Don, who is a former governor, helping on a Tuesday morning too. Our class value is 'Courage' and hopefully as the year progresses we will become much braver and develop our courage so that trying new things isn't as scary.
Working with us this year is Mr Kirkwood, who is a trainee teacher from SCITT.
A typical day in Year 3 looks something like this:-
- Spelling/Reading Vipers
- Maths
- English
- Topic – this maybe history, geography, art, Computing and PSHE
- Handwriting
- Class Novel
We also lucky that in Year 3 we begin our MFL journey and begin to learn French. Madame Walbank teaches us on Tuesday.
PE day is Monday. This will be with the SHARES coach. Once the winter weather arrives it is a good idea to send in some jogging bottoms and a jumper to wear as we will be working outside. We will also have PE on Tuesday too.
