How to Support Your Child
How You Can Support Your Child in Year 3:
Encourage regular reading – Read with your child daily and discuss the stories or information together.
Practice times tables and number skills – Short, frequent practice helps build confidence in maths.
Talk about their learning – Ask questions about schoolwork, topics, and projects to show interest.
Support homework routines – Provide a quiet space and a regular time for homework.
Encourage independence – Allow your child to take responsibility for packing their bag, remembering letters, and organising their work.
Promote healthy habits – Ensure your child gets enough sleep, a balanced diet, and regular exercise.
Attend school events – Participate in parent meetings, trips, and special activities to stay involved.
Foster curiosity – Visit museums, libraries, or local events to support learning outside the classroom.
Praise effort and achievement – Celebrate successes and encourage perseverance when learning is challenging.
Maintain open communication – Keep in touch with teachers to share concerns or celebrate progress.
