Maths MasteryMaths Mastery
We plan for children to deepen their understanding and master the maths curriculum.
It is essential that children entering year 3 know number bonds within 20. They also need to know their 2,5 and 10 times tables and the related division facts.
The children were following the Maths Mastery programme in year 2 and will be
following the same programme throughout the Junior School.
SpellingSpelling
We follow the National Curriculum spelling guidelines.
All the children have been assessed and given an appropriate set of words to work on for this term. Look out for your child’s words in their class home learning book.
In class we learn spelling patterns and rules, and aim to widen children’s vocabulary.
See Spell Excel information on FJS website.
HandwritingHandwriting
Handwriting and presentation is a school focus this year.
We would encourage you to work with your child on their handwriting and presentation in their home learning.
Pen Licence rules are displayed in class.When a pen licence is awarded, school will
provide a pen, and children are then allowed to bring in a blue fibre tip pen from home.
