Help at Home

Year 3 homework expectations are Reading, Spelling, and Times Tables Rock Stars.

Please support pupils to read, learn spellings and practise times tables. Try to do these three activities regularly, this keeps key skills sharp. Table facts need to be revisited often!

• Reading – To support your child with their reading, please read with them at least 4 times per week for about 10 to 15 minutes. Please record and sign in pupil Reading Diaries. All children have a book in school at their reading level. We encourage them to bring these books home. Please ensure they are returned each day, so they can also be read in school.
• Spelling – Please spend time learning the spelling pattern each week. It’s a good idea to learn a few words each day.
• Times Table Rock Stars (TTRS) – Please use this app to increase speed and accuracy with tables recall. Year 3 should know x2, x5, x10, x3, x4 and x8 facts. It’s a best to recall the facts often so use TTRS regularly.
