Welcome to Year 4!

The teaching team this year are Miss Willis and Mr Harden with Mrs Omlo being our Teaching Assistant.

We are very much looking forward to seeing the children all back in school for the new academic year.  We hope that we will be able to have a full year in school and get up to some fantastic adventures. 

Here is some information about this term for Year 4:

• PE will be on Tuesdays and Thursdays.  PE kits now need to be brought in and hung up in the cloakroom. As the term progresses and the weather decides to be a little chillier, feel free to bring in PE jumpers and joggers for those colder and windier days
• Spelling tests will be on a Tuesday – these words can be found in the Home School diary.  Please remember to LOOK, COVER, WRITE, CHECK to help practise.
• Homework will be given out on a Tuesday, to be returned by the following Monday.  This will usually consist of a piece of Maths and English to work through.
• We will have a times table test at the end of the week on Friday.  The children will work through their times tables at their own pace which will run in this order – x2 x5 x10 (altogether), x4, x8, x 3, x6, x12, x9, x7, x11, Challenge.

We have plenty of exciting learning to do this term including:

• Electricity and Sound in Science
• The State of Florida in Geography
• Pre-historic Britain in History
• Creating cave paintings and using clay in Art

Please have a look at the Thematic web below for a further details.

We are always free at the end of the day so feel free to catch us then if you have any questions or queries or just want to say hello!

Many thanks,

Mr Harden & Miss Willis
