Year 4

Welcome to Year 4's page all about the fantastic things that we are doing in 4G and 4C!

We have lots of exciting things happening this half term and will share them with you here.   

 Just a few reminders for the week:

PE is on a Tuesday afternoon - children can come to school in their PE kit. Please make sure they are wearing the correct kit. Earrings need to be removed by the child or before school, we are not allowed to help with this.

Homework has been set on edshed. There is a maths quiz and spelling games set to be completed every week. Children should know their logins and these have been sent home.

Please also make sure to be logging on to TT Rockstars. Playing the garage game will help you to learn your times tables.  This is a valuable tool to help the children learn their times tables as well as prepare them for the Multiplication Tables Check they will be taking in June. The soundcheck game mimics the real test. 

 School starts back on Tuesday 6th January! We hope you have a lovely holiday!

Next term we will be continuing our history topic of the Romans. Why not try and do some research  about Colchester as a Roman town. 

In Literacy we will be moving on to a book study on the book Julius Zebra: Rumble with the Romans.

In Maths we will be continuing to look at multiplication and division learning written methods. 

 Every Thursday one of the Year 4 classes visits Ghost Woods to experience Forest School. We walk there and get the chance to explore and have the freedom to choose our activities. The swing is a popular activity as is building a mud kitchen and making a range of items out of wood.
