Autumn

We have started our Autumn Term and are all enjoying learning about the animals, including humans as well as becoming explorers. Our Maths will include place value and addition and subtraction. In English the children will be learning about endangered animals through our reading and using our writing to create stories and writing information pieces.

As always, we believe that communication between school and home is key to helping us support your children. If you have any queries or concerns, please do get in touch. I can be reached via email at Year4@englishmartyrs.school. 

Physical Education:

PE this Term is on a Monday and a Thursday.   Children will need to come to school in their PE kit on our PE days and will not be changing kits at school. 

Homework:

Please refer to the grid for different activities that give everyone a choice and a chance to choose an activity that interests them.  As always, please encourage your children to read, practice times tables and spellings everyday as this is hugely beneficial to their continual learning. 

Every Thursday, I will also set a spelling test to go alongside our weekly spelling lessons.

Self-organisation

We encourage the children to take responsibility for their belongings and to bring the equipment they need as appropriate each day. Please remind them to check that their water bottles, school clothing and personal items are named to save confusion. They will each have a peg in the classroom and a personal tray.

Water bottles:

Please make sure your child has a named water bottle in class (this should only contain water, no juice or squash). Please help your child fill their bottle with fresh water each day to ensure the children are not drinking water past its best.

Please get in touch with any queries/questions you have via the email address above.
