Hi. If the school aren't being helpful, try to get her interested in a mini project that you can do with her. If you can link it to local places of interest all the better.
I taught a Year 3 class for 2 years and am primary trained. The curriculum is very set for English and Maths (an hour of each a day) but other areas will be topic based. You should be able to find out what those topics are by asking your daughter and/or other parents, or having a peek in class when she is picked up. The class displays will (should) have up the topic work. They will be the usual though - Ancient Egypt, Vikings, Conservation etc. Good luck, and nice to hear that you are keen to help her so much. |

The National Curriculum is currently going through a major overhaul, and any teacher will tell you (off the record) its not worth the paper its printed on. I've got one here as my wife is doing her teacher training as we speak but it wouldn't help you one jot.
While I think its great that you want to get involved with your childs education remember this....they spend approx 6 hours a day in a classroom being told what to do and, like you when you come home from work, they just want to chillax after a hard days learning..... Kids are more intelligent than we give them credit for sometimes and despite both of mine {6 and 8} supposedly doing 'nothing' at school all day when asked, when we go in for parents evening there are books, pictures, projects and all sorts they have been working on. Listen, far be it for me to tell you how to bring up your kids, all the above is IMHO, I just think its important to seperate home and school life. G |
