Year 4 2017 - 2018

Welcome to Summer term in Year 4...

I hope that you had a wonderful Easter break.

I’m very pleased to say that the Year 4 trip to Ingleton is happening again this year, from the 20th - 22nd June. The cost will be approximately £125 (based on last year’s cost), but further information will be given nearer the time. You can make payments towards this on ParentPay now if you would like to.

It is my aim that every child in the class will achieve at least one of our Blue Rainbow Challenges and be able to recall the times tables up to 12x12 by the end of this academic year, so please encourage your child to work on them at home! Spellings tests will remain on Fridays, so any help with which you could provide your child, I’m sure would be really useful. I will also continue to set English and Maths homework on Fridays, due in the following Wednesday unless stated otherwise.

It would be great if children could continue to be encouraged to read anything and everything as much as possible at home, please. As I often tell them, they may change their books whenever they are ready, during Guided Reading sessions, breaks or lunchtimes, or at other given opportunities.

We are timetabled to have PE on Tuesdays and swimming on Wednesdays. Please ensure that the children’s names are in their PE and swimming kits and their school uniforms.

I have attached a topic web for this term so that you can see the learning journey that your children will be taken on. I hope that this term will continue to be progress-filled and enjoyable for all. As always, please do pop over for a chat before or after school, or arrange a meeting if you have any concerns.

Thank you very much. Best wishes,

Mr Coates
