Year 4
Welcome to Year 4!
Welcome to Year 4, where lots of fun and exciting learning takes place. Miss Pennington is our class teacher and in the mornings we are joined by Mrs Wilkinson. On this page you will find our class news and any other important information for the year.
Reading and Homework
Children should bring in their home-reading books in to school everyday, as they will be checked regularly. It is important that we develop a love of reading, we want them to enjoy reading and sharing books with you. Please can parents write a message in their records to confirm they have been reading.
Homework will be handed out on a Friday each week and should be returned the following Tuesday. It will be something they have covered in the week or may be to prepare them for the following week, if your child needs help please ensure they see me on Monday so I can help them.
There is also the RMeasimaths programme and Timetables Rockstars website, which they can use at home, it would be very useful if they could log on at least once a week and do a session.
Rewards
Rewards will be given out to children who are demonstrating good values and behaviour. Also, rewards will be given to those who are showing perseverance, team work and who is being a good friend; which are some of our class targets. We have a weekly prize box for those children who have earned 15 dojo points in a week.
Timetables Check
In June 2020, the new Year 4 multiplication tables check will become statutory. Your child will need to take a short online test to make sure their times tables knowledge is at the expected level. We will be doing lots of practice in class but it is also important that you regularly have a go at home. Each child has their own login for Timetables Rockstars which is a great programme to use.
We look forward to having a fun and exciting year together!
