SUMMER Maths Booklets [White Rose]
For anyone wanting maths work over the Summer we recommend these. Click on the blue button below and scroll down to year 2 or year 3. You will find maths booklets for all year groups. We suggest you start with your current year group. Prisms who have already completed all of the White Rose home learning units we suggest going over any units you feel less confident about in Y3 and then moving on to Autumn year 4. For anyone who finds maths work hard - please use a lower year group. Any maths work is good.
EVERYONE remember your timetables! Keep practising them. The Rockstar TT Competition will continue again in September!

SUMMER READING
READING IS REALLY IMPORTANT! Please take time to read regularly over the Summer holidays. Check out the Library's Summer Reading Challenge [green button below]. We recommend 6 books. Remember to print off your certifcate or take a photograph of it - and bring into school in September. You could also use any of the online reading books further down on our class page.
SPELLING PRACTISE
Scroll down to the spelling section on this page (just under maths puzzles). There you will find links to year 2 and year 3 spellings on SPELLING FRAME. Remember you do not need to subscribe just use the free resources. This is an excellent resource and definitely worth looking at.
WRITING
Over the summer we recommend writing a diary or emailing members or your family, friends or teachers. Remember to read each sentence back as you write it, checking it makes sense and your sentence punctuation. We would love to receive some emails!

Roman Project
Hand in date was Friday 3rd July. Please hand them in as soon as possible. Thank you.
THE ROMANS
The topic of the Romans is huge and it would be impossible to cover everything. Together with your parents decide on a few things to focus on each week. By the end of three weeks we would like you to hand in your roman project. It will need a title page, contents page, clear headings and sub-headings making it clear what your chosen areas are.
Please do not copy text word for word from the internet or books. Put your learning into your own words. Your project must include at least three pages of writing (although we are hoping for more).
Task 2 is the Roman Numeral Challenge which must be completed and added to your final project. This is part of the maths curriculum and is very important.
Below are some questions to help you with your project and some links to help you find out more information about The Romans and The Roman Empire. If you need more help please contact us via email or the school office.
