Welcome to Year 4 and our fascinating Autumn theme...

"TOMB RAIDERS!"

This term we will be exploring the tombs of Ancient Egypt alongside famous Egyptologist Howard Carter.

We'll investigate his breathtaking discoveries to help us to learn more about this incredible period of history. 

So grab your spirt for adventure (and some sun cream) and lets head back over 3000 years to ancient Egypt.

The past is calling Year 4!

To find out more about the work your child will undertake this term please see the Autumn Termly Overview document in the files to download section of this website. Here you will also find our 'Welcome back' letter and key documents relating to spelling, our calculation policy and the DFE Multiplication check.

Homework

Homework will be set via google classroom each Friday. Work will focus on either Maths, English or theme based work and will be due the following Thursday.

Children should be encouraged to read daily both aloud and independently - this should be recorded in your child's reading record. Please also continue to prompt your child to review and practise their times tables up to 12x12. We recommend a starting point of 20 minutes per week.

Times table Rockstars is a brilliant way for your child to brush up on their skills alonside other online games such as Hit the Button - especially the Multiplication check simulator. If you need any assistance with a log in for TT Rockstars please speak to your child's class teacher.

PE

Our outdoor PE slot will be Monday afternoons and indoor PE will take place on Friday afternoons.

Please ensure that your child has the correct kit in school each week. Long hair should always be tied back and earrings removed.

As the winter months approach, jogging bottoms and a warm jumper may be worn for outdoor PE. 

Key Dates

All key dates will be added to the school calendar - keep checking back for exciting updates!
