Year 4 

Welcome to Year 4 with your teacher Miss Bandegiati and teaching assistants Miss Hayes. Please look in the information section for general information about year 4 and the gallery section to see photos of all the fun things the children will do this year. 


General Information

Timetable

Year 4 Timetable

PE for Year 4 will be on Thursday and Fridays. Children will bring their correct PE kit into school on these days and change into them after lunch ready for the lesson.

PE Kit:

  • Plain black shorts, leggings or joggers
  • Plain white t-shirt 
  • Plain black hoodie or school jumper
  • Trainers or pumps

Homework

Reading

We will be encouraging children to read each day in school. To support your child's reading at home, we ask that they read to an adult at home, 4 or more times a week.  We ask that you record each time they read in their reading record to enable them to work towards and achieve their rainbow reading badges. We will check their reading records each week to ensure these targets are being met.

TT Rockstars

This is a fantastic way for the children to learn and practice timestables. Children in Year 4 will complete a national timetable test later in the year so it is so important that they are confident in recalling these facts. Knowing their timestables will help them to be more confident in all areas of their maths lessons too. 

Other homework

The children will also have a homework book that they will complete other homework tasks in. This will be a piece of English or Maths work that links closely to what they have been learning that week. Please make sure that your child has a quiet place they can work at home and that they bring their homework in on the day set.

How you can support your child's learning

You can support your child at home by:

• helping them to become more independent in terms of them getting their things ready for school, eg PE kits/homework

• making sure they read at least 4 times per week and asking them questions about their book as they read

• filling in your child's reading diary

• making sure they use TT Rockstars to practice times tables

• making sure that they have good attendance and punctuality
