Types of questions – Inference

Why might some people think Columbus

was not a good man?

Some people may think that Columbus was not a good man because he exchanged cheap gifts such as cows, sheep and pigs, in return for gold and exotic food, showing he may be selfish and greedy.

How can you help at home?

In Year 3 we ask parents to read with their children at least three times a

week and to record in their diary.

Asking questions about the text to elicit understanding is really helpful and

encourages children to recall or return to the text.

GAPS or SPAG – Spelling, Punctuation & Grammar

In year 3 we teach spelling every week and punctuation and grammar throughout English lessons rather than as a separate subject. We will sometimes give children GAPS tests in order to introduce them to the language and type of questions that may be asked and also to consolidate learning.

Spelling

Spellings are set and tested weekly. Spelling patterns are taught in class and children are expected to apply those patterns in their writing.

Exception words – These are words that have no set spelling pattern. In Year 3, children are expected to be able to read and spell half of the words correctly. By the end of Year 4, children are expected to be able to read and spell all of them.

• Listening to your child read as often as possible to improve fluency

and expression. Talk to them about their reading to elicit

understanding.

• Children are expected to be reading around 90 words per minute

by the end of Year 3!

• Encourage your child to explain what words mean and to look up

any new words in a dictionary to broaden their range of

vocabulary.
