Year 4

Hello and welcome to Year 4

Havana is taught by Mrs Barnes and Kingston is taught by Mrs Birch.  Mrs Foote supports in both classes. We all work together in a team alongside pupils and parents.

This half term, we will be learning about Ancient Egypt. We will be enjoying the book, ‘Cinderella of the Nile’ by Beverley Naidoo. In Maths, we will be developing our knowledge of place value: representing and partitioning numbers into 10,000.  Science, we will be learning about ‘Electricity’.

Key information:

  • Our P.E. days are Monday and Friday for Havana and Friday for Kingston. Please ensure that P.E. kits remain in school and are only taken home for the half-term holidays. Anyone with ears pierced will either need to take their earrings out for the lesson or cover these with plasters/micropore tape, which are provided for by their family.
  • Please send your child with a water bottle each day which is filled with water and ideally labelled.
  • To support your child with their reading, please read with them at least 4 times per week for about 10 to 15 minutes. All children have a book in school at their reading level. We encourage them to bring these books home. Please ensure they are returned each day, so they can also be read in school.
  • Spellings will be sent home weekly and posted on DOJO. Spelling tests will be on a Friday.

The Year 4 team.
