Already it is the end of our first term and it has flown by! I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and we come back to a successful Spring term in Year 4!

Here is a breakdown of what we will be looking at over the coming week:

English- We will be continuing our pantomime reviews.

Maths- We will be finishing our unit on perimeter.

Reading- All children read with an adult at least once a week as part of a Guided Reading programme. After this adult led session they complete tasks relating to the text or linked to current English and Spelling focuses. We continue to read stories as a class.

ICT- We are still holding an extra ICT session each week to introduce the children to touch typing. This a free to use course and is accessible to everyone. If you would like to continue this at home, I have included the link below.

Homework- Homework is given out on a Friday and should be returned by the following Friday. In addition to tasks given out I expect the children to read every day and continue to practise the multiplication tables. I will be collecting the reading records in every week to check children are reading and would ask that you initial or sign to show they have read and make any comments you deem necessary, children should also record all independent reading they have done in the book so I am able to see that they are reading regularly. Children should feel free to keep a book for as long as they need to in order to finish reading. If you have any concerns about your child’s book choice, please speak to me or write me a note.

Successes– Well done to Aishu, Sophie, William and the whole of Millennium who all received merit cards this week!
