Summer 

Welcome back, Year 4!

I can’t believe it is our last term together. We have come so far and achieved so much along the way, but most of all I have really enjoyed getting to know each and every one of you and your fabulous personalities.

As always, we have a very busy term ahead, full of lots of exciting learning opportunities and events.

Some key things to note:

• PE kits are to be worn on Tuesday and Friday.
• Homework is set on a Tuesday and is due back the following Monday.
• Spelling tests will take place on a Monday or Tuesday (dates are in spelling booklets).
• Viking Day will be on Tuesday 19th May (a letter has been sent out with details).
• Our Multiplication Check will be in the week beginning 8th June – please practise using Soundcheck on TT Rockstars as much as possible.

Please see the overview for this half term below.

Autumn

Hello and welcome to Year 4 everyone. I hope you are all as excited as I am to start our new journey together!  

This year is going to be a super-busy, but fun one and we're going to start by hitting the ground running. This term, we'll be swimming, learning about the Romans, continuing to master our times tables and completing lots of fun projects together; I can't wait to get started, 

Here are a few notices and reminders: 

• PE - Friday is PE day, so please ensure you come to school in your kit. 
• Swimming - Swimming will take place weekly, beginning on Tuesday 16th September, so please ensure you bring your swimming kit to school on those days. 
• Homework - You will receive x1 maths and x1 English homework on a Tuesday and this will be due the following Monday. You can hand your homework in at any time during the week once it is completed - there is a basket in the classroom for completed homework. We will mark these together on a Monday morning.
• Spellings - Your spellings will go home with your homework every Tuesday and we will have our spelling test on a Monday.
• Times Tables - We will practice our times tables daily in school. At the end of the year we will have a Multiplication Check that will test all of your times tables from 1 to 12. TT Rockstars will be your best friend! Make sure you are practicing at home.
• Reading - Home reading is such a special and important part of your learning which can be enjoyed by the whole family! Home reading should be completed 3x per week, but the more you read the better! Please record your daily reading in your home-school diary. These will be checked each Friday morning. 

I have attached our Curriculum Maps to this page, so you can have a look at what we will be learning this year. 

Please let me know if you have any questions!
