Year 3 and 4: Highmoor 2025 - 2026
We are a class of Year 3s and 4s with our teachers Mrs Claridge (Mon-Weds) and Mrs Griffith (Thurs-Fri)
Mrs Dunn supports us (Mon-Thurs)
Our Curriculum
- The Curriculum Map for 2025-27 is available below.
- The spelling overview links are at the bottom of the page.
Homework
- Please complete the 'A Day' task on Doodle maths - little and often is the key to supporting fluency. 15 mins spent on this is ideal.
- Reading (with an adult or by an adult) please record this in your child's reading record daily. Books can be changed in the classroom when the children arrive at school in the morning.
- Times tables are looked at regularly in school. They are tested weekly on Monday. Children are told which table to focus on (recorded in the back of their Home School Diaries) and this, along with all tables previously learned, should be practised daily at home. By the end of Year 3 children are expected to know their 2, 10, 5, 3, 4 and 8 times table, both multiplication and division facts. By the end of Year 4 they should know their 2 - 12 times table.
- Spellings are sent home weekly on Mondays. Please help your child learn these in whatever way suits them best. They will be informally tested on Fridays.
Things to Remember
- Please ensure that children have water bottles, their reading books and Home School Diaries in school daily.
- We have a welly rack outside our door near the kitchen for the winter months when the Common can get very muddy. Please can all children have a pair of outdoor shoes or wellies to change into at break and lunch times.
- PE kits can be kept in school until they need to be washed!
SAFEGUARDING
If you have any concerns regarding your child's safety, please speak to a member of staff or Mrs Wakefield (Designated Safeguarding Lead).
