Parents evening- 4RT

Hello, Parents evening calls will take place on Monday 2nd November and Wednesday 4th November. If you are unable to answer the phone when I call and receive a missed call from the school, I will call back at an alternative time. If I call and it is an unsuitable time to talk then please arrange another time with me for those dates on the phone and I will do my best to accommodate everyone. 

Many thanks for your co-operation

Mrs Taylor.

Year 4 Spellings- Week Beginning 26.10.20

As we're limiting the amount of paper that comes home, we will now post weekly spelling lists below. There will be two spelling lists that vary in difficulty and your child should know which list they usually work on. You can download them and print them off or you can write them on to some paper to help your child practice. Spelling tests happen every Monday.

Year 4 Update 18.09.20 

Hello! We have had a very busy start back in Year 4! Thank you for all your support already. We have had fun learning lots of new things about the Romans, including staging a battle or two with the Celts! 

Just a few reminders from the Year 4 team: 

• PE days are Monday and Wednesday. Please send children to school wearing trainers, suitable PE trousers/shorts, their school polo shirt and jumper on these days. 
• New spellings will be handed out every Monday for them to learn at home as well as in school. A spelling test will take place with the previous week's spellings every Monday too. 
• The two-weekly homework is all based on I Am Warrior this half term, our Roman topic. Please can children complete their next homework by Friday 25th September. Ideas sheets have been sent home but if these need replacing, please let us know. 
• Reading records are being collected in weekly so please record any reading done at home in these. Children are expected to read at least three times a week at home, as well as daily at school, which means their reading books and reading records need to come back to school every day. 
• Thank you for sending lunches to school in paper/plastic bags. Please can this continue as the large bags/rucksacks are not suitable for our cloakrooms at present, while we are still trying to keep children's belongings distanced. Your child is welcome to bring a book bag or similar small bag to carry their reading book and reading record to and from school, as this can be left by their desk in the classroom. 

Thank you again for all your support getting everybody back to school. Keep checking the website for more updates and messages.

Hello Year 4,

These videos show you how to enter the school everyday and what to expect in your classrooms. You will need to enter the school grounds via the Richmond Park gates and follow the one way system to the ball court where your teacher will be waiting. Parents can escort their child to the ball court every morning or if the child would prefer they can walk in alone with the Year 5 and 6 children from this entrance. Year 4 children do need to be collected from the ball court everyday by an adult. Please stick to the Year 4 arrival time of  8.30-8.40 and pick up time of 3.10pm. 
See you on Friday

Mrs Taylor and Mrs Swan. 

Summer Homework Ideas for Year 4 2020-21

To 4CS and 4RT 2020-21,  

We are so looking forward to meeting you and starting the new school year together. 

If you are looking for something to do over the summer holidays, why not get a head start on your first topic: I Am Warrior! It is all about the Romans and there are some ideas below for what you could do. If you have your own idea though, that's great! 

Looking forward to seeing all your great projects! 

Mrs Swan and Mrs Taylor :) 

I Am Warrior! Knowledge Organiser 

To give you an idea of what will be covered in this topic, here is a knowledge organiser, full of the vocabulary, facts and ideas the children will be need to be aware of over the first half term back at school. Hopefully by the end of the topic, they will be able to recall the facts on this sheet and place the Roman invasion of Britain in a wider historical context. Have a look and see which words and facts you already knew, which you are unsure of and which you have questions about.

Home Learning for Year 4 Children

During this time, we thought it would be helpful to provide you with some ideas for home learning. 
Please find below Word documents which have a suggested timetable for activities linked to Maths, Writing, Reading, Connected Learning subjects and P4C.


There are also some 'HOW TO' Power Points / sheets to help you when supporting your children and some website suggestions on the plan. All of the additional resources are referenced on the plan. All of the resources can also be accessed via SharePoint. Details of how to login to this have been sent home with the children. If you are unsure of how to access this, please email the school office for access details.

For Computing activities, please take a look at Mrs Cox's updated webpage containing lots of fun activites. Click Here.

For latest information to Parents/Carers from CEOP, on how to protect your children when Gaming, Click Here.

For P.E. activities, some child-friendly links include 'Joe Wicks Body Coach Children's Sessions', 'NHS 10 minute shake ups', 'Cosmic Kids' Yoga and Mindfulness and 'GoNoodle' videos. Hopefully these will help children to stay active whilst indoors.

For additional P4C activities, please take a look at; www.thephilosophyman.com/brainsqueezers. Each week, there will be different Spot and Stripe videos, a game, a riddle, Sticky Questions, a stimulus story and details of Alien Adventures in Philosophy Zoom sessions. These will be changed every Friday. 

David Walliams is releasing a new free audio book each day for you to enjoy :) 

https://www.worldofdavidwalliams.com/elevenses/ 

The ideas listed will not necessarily match exactly the content and order of that being taught in school, because we have adapted the activities to suit home learning rather than class based learning.

We hope you find this useful. If you have any questions, or need hard copies of the downloads,  please email the office who can forward the email on to the class teachers.

Many thanks,

Mrs Taylor and Mrs Clark.
