Welcome to Year 4! 

Class Teacher and Learning Support Assistants:

About our class: 

We are an amazing year group, full of ideas and creativity. We really strive towards independency. We know it is okay to make mistakes as this is how we will learn. We look forward to welcoming you into our class! 

What are we learning? 

This term is full of exciting and fun-packed learning! In Maths we will be starting the term off with decimals!  In English we have started a new book. Our new reading book is, "Dead Man's Cove" written by Lauren St. John. We have formed many predictions on the book and we are looking forward to unravelling the story. Our first writing piece for this term will be a narrative. 

This term in History we are learning about how children's lives have changed throughout the years. We will be focusing on the Roman, Tudor and Victorian time periods. We are looking forward to this and can't wait to share our learning with you.  

PE information:

Our class P.E days are Tuesday and Friday. Children need to be in school on these days in their P.E kits. Long hair will need to be tied back and earrings must be removed on P.E days. 

Homework information:

In Key Stage 2 (KS2), we will send home six project-based tasks linked to the curriculum. This topic homework can be completed at your own pace and submitted upon completion or during the last week of the half term. To encourage participation, students can earn certificates based on the number of tasks they complete: 2 pieces for a Bronze Certificate, 4 for a Silver Certificate and 6 for a Gold Certificate. All certificates will be awarded in class during the final week of the half term.

In addition to the project tasks, children are expected to read regularly at home, at least three times a week, practice their times tables weekly using Times Table Rock Stars, and finally, practice their weekly spellings.
