Week beginning 9nd June

We have a busy week this week! On Tuesday we have our TTRS day, where your child can come dressed as a rockstar for the day. We will spend the day doing a variety of activities focusing on practising our times tables.

On Thursday the children have their Multiplication Tables Check. The children have done lots of practice for this and it is not something for them to worry about at all and just to do their best!

Homework:

Please check the homework overview at the bottom of this page, we will share and display the home learning in class. 

My Maths will be set each week and the task is due every Thursday. 

Reading:

Remember to read at home as much as possible! If children read three times at home, they get a raffle ticket.

Reading Raffle – Please encourage your child to record in their yellow reading record when they have read at home. 

3 reads a week = 1 raffle ticket 

5 or more reads a week = 2 raffle tickets 

Library Day is on a Monday for both classes. 

Your child regularly reads with an adult, both individually and during whole-class reading lessons. In Year 4, children are encouraged to take responsibility for changing their own reading books as needed.

Please note that we do not always write in your child's reading record. This is because we keep our own detailed record in school, and avoiding duplication allows us to spend more time directly supporting the pupils.

Thank you for your understanding and ongoing support in fostering a love for reading. If you have any questions regarding reading, then please speak to a member of the Year 4 team.

At the end of every other term, two names from each class will be drawn in Worship and those children will make a special trip ( with a book) to our local Costa to enjoy a babyccino!
