Curriculum
Lexia is a fun computer-based program. The activities focus on developing reading skills in six areas: phonological awareness, phonics, structural analysis, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension. The program is designed to allow the children to complete the activities independently. It will move the children on when ready, and it provides additional support when needed.
​
As well as being given time to complete Lexia activities within the school week, your child will also benefit from spending at least two additional twenty minute sessions at home.

Educational Visits
Each term, every class goes on three Educational visits. These visits provide a fun and valuable learning experience which will link with teaching back at school. This was highlighted as a strong feature of our school by OFSTED on their last visit. Currently, we are unable to go on any educational visits, however, we have arranged virtual visits to continue learning and experiencing educational content outside of the classroom.
Have a look at some visits that we have been on in Year 3 recently.
Homework
Homework will be given out every Friday and needs to be completed and returned to school by the following Wednesday. Maths homework will be linked to developing the arithmetic skills which are being taught that week. Another short homework task will be set, and this may well be related to English, but could be a research question connected to which ever theme the children are studying at the time. If the children need Internet access for the research, and this is not available at home, arrangements will be made for them to complete the work in school.
Spellings
Children are also encouraged to take home their spelling books and reading books every night so that they can practise and improve.
​
In addition to this there is a list of words that the children will be learning throughout the year. Any support and practice that you can do at home would be most beneficial.
