Class 3
Ms Harwood welcomes you to Class 3!
Hello, welcome to Class 3's home page, in Class 3. In our class we are ably assisted by Mrs Kim Sparks who supports our learning by taking groups in Maths and English, with additional support offered to individuals and small groups in the afternoons. We teach years 4, 5 and 6 and we follow a rolling programme of study. The children are all very friendly and they display strong Christian values; working well together and offering support and encouragement to their classmates. They rise well to the school’s expectation of being super role models for the younger children across the school and they really delight in a creatively rich curriculum.
Together, we are a happy team!
We welcome parental involvement, so if you have any questions, offers of help or special skills to share with us, we would love to see you.
Homework
The expectation for homework in Class 3 is that your child reads at least five times a week (some of which to an adult) and records this in their Reading Log. Spelling homework is to practise the words on the Year 3/4 and 5/6 Statutory Word Lists and sometimes words are set to practice at other times too. Maths homework is to practise multiplication and division facts on Times Tables Rock Stars and to complete the weekly MyMaths tasks. Log in details are in the front of your child's Reading Log. A creative home learning challenge is set at the beginning of each term; details of which can be found on the Class Curriculum Map (which can be found at the bottom of this page).
At certain times of the year, Year 6 homework expectations will include additional work focusing on reading comprehension, maths and SPAG - books will be sent home at the appropriate time.

AUTUMN 2025
We have been learning about Space and we have conducted are own Shadow Investigation over the course of a day. We noticed that our shadows were shorter at midday and that they lengthened in the late afternoon. We have asked scientific questions for the reasons for this and we have considered aspects of fair investigations. We were lucky because the weather was beautiful on the day and our results were really clear.
