Welcome to 3M with Mr Morris!
Welcome to Class 3M's webpage for 2021-2022!
Some things you need to know about our class:
- The Year 3 classroom doors open at 8:50am and school starts at 9.00am. Please be on time!
- School finishes at 3.15pm. Please pick up your child from the classroom door.
- PE is on Thursdays when children need to come to school in their PE kit, sweatshirt and school shoes. Remember to bring pumps in a bag to change into. Leggings and tracksuit bottoms can be worn instead of shorts.
- Homework (Maths and Spellings) are sent home on Friday to be returned by the following Friday.
- Spelling tests are on Fridays.
- Children are expected to read at home every day, and reading books are changed regularly.
A few requests:
- Please ensure that your child goes to the toilet before leaving home. Going to the toilet during lessons disrupts learning.
- Please arrive on time - learning starts with Maths catch-up practice at 8.50am. Regularly arriving late harms your child's learning.
- Please label all clothing - it's very difficult to locate your child's jumper when we have 30 in lost property with no names on!
Thank you!
I'm on the door most mornings and afternoons or you can get in touch via the school office if you have any questions or concerns.
