Welcome to our Class Three Page. I hope that this information is helpful and useful and you are able to find out things that you need to know about life in Class Three at Wellhouse J and I School!
In Class Three we have a mix of Year 4, 5 and 6 Children. We are a fun and friendly class who always try our hardest. We have a great laugh in our class, but are really eager to learn at the same time. We take pride in our work and always want to acheive great new Heights. We really soar high when it comes to our learning attitude and we never give up. We love to learn and are always trying to find out new things. If you need any more information regarding Class Three, please pop into the school office and ask to speak to a member of staff who works in there.

Monday's - Celebration Assemblies. If you have achieved anything outside of school, please bring this in and hand to Mrs Kenworthy or Mr Bradbury.
Wednesday's - Library day. Our volunteer librarian, Mrs De-Barkham, comes in to change our reading books. Please remember to bring your book so that you can change it!

This can change weekly but will give you an idea of what we are up to in Class.
What can we do at home?
Learning is important across a child's life and therefore we ask that children complete little jobs and tasks at home. Each week children will be given a learning homework task that reflects the learning that we have completed at school; this may be maths/ literacy or topic related. There is an expectation that this is completed. We must ensure that reading takes place, we learn our times tables, we learn our KIRFs and learn any spellings that we may be given. Below there is also a grid of ideas for 'Homework' in class. Take a look at this document so that you know what different activities you can complete at home in addition to the tasks that have been given to the children.
Reading lots is always important and it is important that we write what we have read in our planners. Remember that we have the top 60 books to read before you leave Class Three! The document is in your planners but can also be found below.
We must know our KIRF target and apply this. The KIRF's can be found under the pupil's page at the top.
Our Topic
This term our Topic is What are the Seven Natural Wonders of the World?
Each week we will take a journey to a different wonder of the world. We will find out about the human and physical Geography that takes place there too.
The curriculum newsletter below will give you an overview of what we are studying in our class this half term.
What are we reading in Class?
We really love reading in Class Three and we really are trying to read as much as we possibly can.
Our current literacy book is: All the Wild Wonders - Poems of the Earth
This Poem books shares what the wonders of our planet is through poetry. This gorgeous book shares all our wonders and we are thrilled to be reading this.
In our Guided Reading Groups, we are reading two books: Butterfly Lion and Room 13. Mr Bradbury has admitted that these are two of his favourite books from when he was a child (we think that must be reason that he has chosen them). Maybe you could grab the copy that you are reading:
Mr Bradbury has also chosen a novel to read to us in Class at the end of the day. We have started reading 'Wonder' and it seems like a book with lots of meanings but seems relevant to our learning:
Please feel free to buy any of the books that we are reading in class to help you with your own learning!
