Dear Parents and Carers,
Welcome to Year 4!
Our topic for Autumn Term 1 in Geography is mapping England. In Science, we are learning about States of Matter; solids, liquids and gases. We will occasionally send home research projects on these subjects for the children to work on - please support your child as best you can with this.
We are also continuing with Mathletics and Reading Eggs. Please encourage your children to use these online resources for at least 15 minutes each day.
Our PE days are Tuesday (pm) and Wednesday (pm), children should bring a PE kit with them to change into - they will have a chance to do this during the school day. It is very important to ensure that the children are changing completely for PE to promote good personal hygiene. The PE kit remains the same, a white t-shirt, black bottoms and black trainers.
School Uniform
This is a red school jumper or school fleece with a white or red shirt underneath. Bottoms should be grey trousers or skirts - NOT tracksuit bottoms or leggings. Shoes should be black.
Reading Records
Reading records need to be filled in daily with a comment from the child about what they have read and new words that they have learnt. Parents do not need to sign the records as this is something that your child should take responsibility for. However, please check that your child is doing this properly. Homework is handed out each Friday and should be returned to school / submitted on Google Classroom on Wednesdays. Weekly spellings and times tables are given out on Friday and children will be tested the following week on Thursdays.
Soft Start
Will will have a 'soft-start' from 8:45am Tuesday - Friday. Please support your child to attend to this on time as it is a chance to address misconceptions from the day before and ensures that we start lessons promptly at 9am.
If you have any questions regarding the curriculum or any aspect of your child's learning or welfare, please come along to our 'Meet the Teacher' event on 20th September at 3:50pm.
Kind regards,
The Year 4 Teaching Team
