Lewis brought home a really good school report. And he also found out that his teacher next year will be the same one he had last year. He is REALLY happy about that!
Some parts from his report: Literacy
Reading: Lewis is an excellent reader. He has fantastic expression and can sustain his concentration during reading times. Lewis had done exceptionally well with the conprehension quizzes he has taken on the online reading scheme. I am very pleased with his progress and I am really proud of him.
Spelling & Handwriting: Lewis is a wonderful speller and this is shown in his weekly spelling tests. He makes every attempt to spell unknown words with a mixture of success and has good spelling strategies. Lewis does however need to develop his handwriting style.
Speaking & Listening: Lewis is a quieter member of the class and would benefit from adding more to class discussions. Lewis is good when listening to others in the class but rarely contributes without prompting.
Maths
Mental Maths: Lewis can mentally add and subtract 2 and 3 digit numbers, count back in tens, hundreds and thousands and can recall his 2,3,4,5,6 and 10 times table with speed and accuracy. He has scored very well in mental maths tests.
Calculations: Lewis can use all 4 operations to solve calculations and can apply this to solving word problems. He listens well and has coped well with all the year 3 learning objcetives.
Shape & Space: Lewis can suggest suitable estimates for amounts and lengths of objects and measure them accurately. He can name and identify the properties of 2d and 3d shapes and can recognise and sketch lines of symmetry.
And the basic comments for the remaining subjects...
Science: Lewis has tried very hard in all areas of this subject, he grasps scientific concepts well and can makes sensible predictions and draw his own conclusions.
ICT: Lewis uses the computer competently and confidently and is able to use word processing, databases & email. He can manipulate text appropriately and can search well to gather needed information.
Art: Lewis has worked well in art and his efforts inthis subject really have improved. I am very pleased about this. He has had a lot of success creating an abstract design and producing a print from his template.
French: We have started learning French this year and Lewis has put in a lot of effort. He is keen to join in and can introduce himself and talk about the weather.
History: Lewis has thoroughly enjoyed History and our work with the Tudor times. He has worked well when learning about Henry VIII.
Music: Lewis has always been very sensible and focused during music lessons and can work well with instruments.
P.E: Lewis really enjoys P.E and is able to perform a variety of skills with quality & control. He works well as part of a team and is very active during lessons.
Personal, Social & Health education: In year 3 Lewis has looked at health & safety at school and at home. He has talked about different people who are there to help us. Lewis has shown that he can be caring and considerate to others which reflects his personality. He is able to express his relationships with others.
General Comment: Lewis has been an absolute pleasure to teach. He is a good friend to others and seems to enjoy school life. I wish Lewis luck for next year and hope he can continue to work hard and do well. Well done Lewis for all your effort.
