Year Four

Year Four

Class Teacher - Mr Wilson
Teaching Assistants - Miss Burns

The staff in Year 4 work together as a team to provide the children with a range of exciting and engaging experiences to support their learning. We encourage mutual respect and co-operation, valuing everybody’s opinions and contributions. 

We also encourage the children to become more independent, with the hope that they come to school with a positive attitude each day.

We have high, but achievable expectations of the staff and the children and we strive to provide the appropriate support for everyone to achieve their full potential. 

We have lots of exciting topics and educational visits planned for this year to broaden the children’s learning. 

Our Weekly Routine

Every morning and four afternoons will be taught by Mr Wilson. 

Mrs Troughton will teach one afternoon a week. 

PE will be on Monday afternoon and Friday afternoon.

Swimming will be on a Thursday morning in the Spring Term.

Reading in Year 4

Children will continue to move through the colour schemed books in school. The children will get a book to read at home from one of these colours, but they are also welcome to read books from home. I ask that the children read at least 4 times a week at home and that their reading record is signed by an adult. Children who have 4 signed reads in their record, by Friday, are rewarded with dojos points. 

Homework and Spelling in Year 4

In Year 4, homework will be given on Showbie, which is an online tool we use throughout school. Children will also use this in school for some lessons. 

Homework will be uploaded to Showbie on a Friday afternoon, to be returned the following Thursday. Homework will usually be Maths or English, but it could be linked to our topic in Science, History or Geography.

Spellings will be given on a Friday to learn for the following Friday, when we will have our test. All of the spellings will be uploaded to Spelling Shed, which provides games to help the children learn their spellings.

TimesTable Rockstars can also be accessed from home. This is a fantastic tool to help the children learn their Times Tables. 

All logins will be given to the children at the start of the year.
