PE

Our PE day is 

Please ensure children come to school in the school PE kit. They will spend the whole day in their PE kit.

St John's Kit should be a plain white top, plain dark shorts/pants and dark trainers or pumps. School jumpers or cardigans can be worn over the top. 

Reading Books

Reading is such an important skill which will be used in every subject. To make progress in reading involves reading a little at home every day. Each day, a 20 minute read at home, will help our children develop a good level of reading fluency. 

Children must bring their reading book to school everyday in their book bag, as they will be asked to read to an adult. 

Homework

Spellings

These are sent home every Friday and the test will be the following Friday, so the children will have a week to practise.

Please practise the spellings regularly at home. 

Time Tables

In Year 4, we have weekly times table practice in school. We also use Time Tables Rock Stars (TTRS) for children to practise their tables at home. 

Please access TTRS across the week. Miss Shields will check how often the children have logged on and will monitor how the children are getting on with their times tables. 

We have a (TTRS) test every Monday in school, where the children can try to beat their record and improve their 'Rock Star Status!'

A good knowledge of our times tables can help to deepen our understanding of number, which in turn helps the children to problem solve with increased fluency. 

Reading

Reading for 20 minutes a day with an adult. 

In Year 4 the children will be sitting their statutory multiplication tables check (MTC) in June.
