Friday 16th June                                     Year Three Spain Project

Dear Parents/Carers,

This half-term the pupils in Year Three will be asked to complete a project as part of their homework.  This project will enhance their knowledge of our forthcoming topic; ‘Spain’ and will also help the children to develop their research and organisational skills. 

As the children progress throughout Key Stage Two they will complete a number of homework projects. This will be their first project so we hope you will be able to support your child, however, it is important that they produce their own work.

Here is a list of what to include in the project along with dates for returning the project to school.

Please follow this list and complete all the pages as described.  Some children may wish to add extra pages, however we would ask that only two extra pages as well as those described above be included.

We look forward to seeing their brilliant work! 

If you have any questions, please see one of the Year 3 Team.

Yours Sincerely,

Mrs Avery-Torrance, Miss Bolger and Mrs Marshall.
