Other Useful Information
PE:
PE days are Wednesday and Thursday and we require your PE kit to be in school every day which can be taken home on a Friday to be washed ready for the following week. P.E Kit can be worn to school on Wednesdays for the mile run, (please ensure normal uniform is brought to school carried in a separate bag).
Outdoor Learning:
Our outdoor learning day is every other Thursday. Children should arrive in school in school uniform as usual but with outdoor learning clothes in a bag. This includes bringing long sleeved tops and full-length trousers. They will need to bring a change of clothing including socks, underwear and trainers, to ensure they remain warm during the colder Winter months! Don't forget a hat and sun screen in the hot summer months. Children will change when necessary, depending on the nature of the activity. Not all outdoor activities require a change of clothes.
Water Bottles:
The children should have a clearly named water bottle in the classroom. This should be a different bottle from their lunch drink and should be WATER only. The bottles should be taken home daily.
Reading:
Reading takes places at the end of every day, and once the children have completed a book they can take an Accelerated Reader Quiz to check for understanding. This term children will be bringing home a reading record to record all the reading they do at home and school. It must be brought into school EVERY DAY. The children also have an opportunity to read aloud to an adult and we ask that you also listen to your child read at home.
Year 4 Multiplication Tables Check:
Your child will be participating in the multiplication tables check in June, a parents guide can be found below. We will practice our times tables in class using Times Table Rock Stars (TTRS). We kindly ask for children to practice as much as possible using TTRS or Times Table Games.
Information for Parents - Multiplication Tables
How you can help support your child's learning:
- Promote a love of reading and read regularly at home
- Encourage a growth mindset and a can-do attitude. The power of ‘yet’!
- Working maths into every-day life – counting out money at the shop, telling the time, helping to weigh and measure ingredients etc
- Complete the maths homework and practice any times tables your child still does not know.
- Ask your child about their learning.
