PE Day
Our PE has changed this term to Wednesday so children can come to school in their PE kit that day. Please remember no jewellery, football shirts and appropriate footwear.
Reading
It is really important that your child reads 20 minutes each day minimum. If you are able to read with your child, that is also extremely beneficial to support them. Please could you update reading records in your child’s planner and sign this each week.
Homework
Homework will be sent out weekly on a Friday. This will be spellings, literacy and maths which will be consolidating learning they have done in the classroom that week. Please encourage your child to return this to school on a Wednesday.
Times tables
We will be having a huge focus on Times Tables in year 4. It is very important that by the end of the school year, the children know all of their times tables fluently up to 12 x 12. We will do lots of work on this in school but please encourage your children to do extra practice at home. They all have Times Table Rock stars logins in their planners which is a fantastic resource for improving their tables.
School Uniform
As a school, we are having a big push on school uniform. We will be expecting the children to arrive at school in an appropriate school uniform, whether this be with a logo or a plain navy blue jumper, cardigan etc. We do have spare uniform, however this is far and few between and children will now be expected to get changed into any spare uniform we have for the day. If you have any questions please come in and speak to us we are here to help where we can :)
On the days your child has PE, they can attend school in their appropriate PE kit (No football shirts are allowed), however, they will no longer be allowed to wear PE kits on the days they attend after-school clubs. Please send your child in with an appropriate PE kit in a bag on those days, unless it is the same day as our PE day then the children are welcome to attend in their kit for the day and their club. The children will be given time to get changed at the end of the day in time for their club.
Please see attached in the files section the knowledge organisers for each subject. This will give you an overview of what your child is learning about.
Please keep checking your class page for further updates.
Thankyou,
Mr Cowhig
