Year 3 Curriculum

Year 3 Homework Expectations

Reading

In Year 3, the children are expected to read their reading book three times a week and this is to be recorded in their reading diary. Children are encouraged to use our online reading resources - Oxford Owl - and they're encouraged to visit the Library where they have many opportunities to enjoy a range of books and genres.

Spelling

Children are encouraged to practise the spellings for their year group and to revisit the spellings from Year 2 to ensure they are known and understood. 

Here are some ideas for practising spellings the old fashioned way using pencil and paper.

Here are some website which can be used by the children to help them learn their spellings:

Times Tables

Children are expected to log in and play Times Tables Rock Stars at least three times a week. This supports the paper-based times tables they practise at school. 

In Year 2, children were encouraged to learn their x2, x5 and x10 tables. In Year 3, this continues and now includes x3, x4 and x8. For those children who are able, learning the other times tables is also encouraged.
