Welcome to Class 4!

In Class 4 you will find Mrs Foster, Mrs Adams, Miss Whitley and Mr Luke. We are very much looking forward to guiding you through your Year 4 journey, full of fun and lots of exciting learning.

Please check class Dojo as this is where you will find our daily/weekly updates. 

Snack

- Please bring in your own fruit or vegetable snack for break time if you would like. Please ensure your snack pot is labelled to ensure it does not get lost. 

- Please bring in your own water bottle to ensure you stay hydrated throughout the day.

P.E

Our P.E day is going to be on a Tuesday. Please ensure you come to school on a Tuesday wearing the appropriate PE kit: House coloured T -Shirt (not football shirts), shorts, leggings or tracksuit trousers and  trainers or shoes that are suitable for sport. If you wear earrings, please make sure these are removed for your PE day or taped up before coming to school.

Developing a Love for Reading in Year 4!

In Class 4, we are really trying to push the children's reading. Could you please encourage your child to be reading at least 15 minutes each night. This will really help to improve their fluency, comprehension and writing.  o support you with books that can be read at home, I have made this suggested book list. These are targeted at Year 4 children and are a range of genres. We encourage both fiction and non-fiction books to be read.

Home Learning

Children will receive a sheet of paper, consisting of 3 activities (English, Maths and Captivating Curriculum) on a Friday. These activities are based on what the children have been learning in class, thus meaning they should be able to complete them independently. 

Homework will be due in the following Thursday. This means the children have the weekend, plus 3 days to complete their homework. Children will receive 5 dojos for completing their homework each week.

There will be a homework club, held on a Wednesday, for the children who are consistently not completing their homework or those who struggle to do work at home. 

Homework will be posted onto Dojo each week too for easy access.
