Year 4
Throughout the year we will use this page to keep Year 4 children and adults up to date with our fantastic learning, photos and other important information.
We have two classes in Year 4:
Asters - Mrs Dearman
Lavenders - Miss Smith
We are also very lucky to have additional support in class by Mrs Ditchburn, Mr Cruz and Mr Stammers
If you have any questions or concerns, please get in contact via the school office.
A Typical Day in Year 4
General information:
Belongings:
Our cloakrooms are very small, therefore we ask that the children do not bring large bags into school, unless there is a specific reason for having one (after school sports club etc). Please make sure all belongings are named.
PE:
This term our PE day is Thursday (Game On) and Friday (Class PE)
On these days, the children will need to come into school wearing their PE kit.
PE Kit: White t-shirt/ school PE shirt or house shirt; dark shorts; dark joggers and sweatshirt; trainers.
Please make sure all PE kit (as well as regular uniform) is labelled with your child's name.
Forest school:
Forest School this half term will be alternating with Class PE. Below are the dates for planned Forest School sessions - Please check our class windows for any updates regarding these dates:
Wednesday 11th September
Wednesday 25th September
Wednesday 9th October
Please note the weeks that we have Forest School, we will not have Class PE on Friday.
Drinks/Snacks:
To make sure the children stay hydrated, please remember to bring in a clearly named water bottle. Please remember that only water is permitted in these. Children may have a snack at break time. If snacks are bought in, please make they are only fresh fruit or vegetables.
Your child will have a choice from 9 different activities, of which they are to complete 5, over a 5 week period. The * indicates tasks that must be undertaken. Any completed work needs to be returned to school by Wednesday to each week, books will be sent home on Fridays.
Please look down below to find the home learning grid.
Reading:
We would like you to encourage your child to read at home every day. Please ensure that your child has a current book, appropriate to their level and understanding, with them each day. This could be a book from home or school.
Please note, in Year 4, reading record logs are not given to all children.
Here is a link to the recommended Year 4 reading list which is regularly updated. It also has 'book match' lists so if your child likes a particular author, it has suggestions which are similar.
