Welcome to our Year 4 Classes
Year 4 Expectations
In Year 4, the children should be reading every day. The school uses the Accelerated Reader scheme. Pupils have completed a Star Reading Assessment, and they have a reading zone written in their reading record book. You can check books from home too to see if they are in your child’s reading zone at https://www.arbookfind.co.uk/ . Reading quizzes take place at school once the book is completed, and certificates can be earned for correct questions.
Children have spellings sent home for a quiz on Friday. These words will be used in spelling and handwriting activities during the week.
We are working hard in class on times tables, so any extra support you can give your child at home would be appreciated. We encourage frequent use of mathsframe.co.uk.
Maths homework tasks are set each week on Freckle, a password-protected website, and you will find your child’s details inside their reading record. Please ask your class teacher if you would like their settings changed so that the questions are always read out loud.
PE Day
Lions have P.E. on Monday and Tigers have P.E. on Tuesday.

Timetable
Our timetables can be downloaded below. Here, parents and pupils have the opportunity to view the class schedule to see the day-to-day routine including the range of curriculum that is covered. We have found that children with SEND have responded well to visually seeing the structure of the day ahead.
Terms/Topic Information
Parents will receive a Curriculum Booklet at the start of each term informing them about what the children will be learning. This will also be available below to download.

Home Learning
We expect children to read every day at home, fill in their reading records and bring them in. Your child is given a spelling list each week as homework, please go through these with your child. We also set maths homework on Freckle each Friday.
