Fable
We try hard in Year 3 to perfect out handwriting. We focus on the following:
Letter formation and orientation
Tall letters (letters that touch the sky - E.g. h, l, b, d)
Small (letters that reach halfway - E.g. a, e, s)
Letters that go below the line (Letters that get a bit wet - E.g. j, g, y)
We also take part in RWInc sessions daily. These sessions focus on phonics and reading skills along with spelling activities.
Please see the main class page for helpful links to website that will help the children build on their spelling, reading and writing :-)
Welsh
In year 3 we use Welsh everyday. The children have daily practise with our placemat as well as engaging Welsh activities throughout the week. These encourage the children to use their Oracy skills as well as reading and writing.
