Welcome to Year 4! 

Welcome to our Year 4 Class Page! Our Class Teacher, Mrs Lessiter, is supported by our incredible teaching assistants, Mrs Edwardson and Mrs Lawrence Rimmer, who help to ensure every child is supported and ready to learn. 

Year 4 is a year of exciting learning, new challenges and growing independence. Our curriculum is designed to encourage children to become Creative, Confident and Curious learners. We will support children to think creatively, develop confidence in themselves and their abilities and ask questions that inspire them to explore the world around them. 

As a team, we want every child in Year 4 to feel valued, encouraged and proud of thier achievements. Through high expecations, nurturing support and exciting learning opportunities, we will help your child recognise their strengths, overcome challenges and reach their full potential. 

Striving for excellence in all that we do. 

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me. Please see me at the end of the school day or alternatively, contact the school office via phone or email and I will respond at the next convenient time.

Times Tables Multiplication Check

In Year 4 your child will take place in the Multiplication Tables Check (MTC). This check is designed to assess children's fluency and their recall of multiplication and division facts, particularly the times tables up to 12x12. 

Developing quick and accurate recall of multiplication facts is a vital foundation for many areas of mathematics as your child progresses through their academic journey. 

Throughout the year we will be practising times tables daily in fun and engaging ways, helping children to build confidence, improve fluency and secure their understanding. 

Please support your child by positively encouraging them to practise their Times Tables daily through fun and interactive methods, whether that be TTRockstars, Hit the Button or Song. 

Please see attached links to support this.

Routines

P.E days are Tuesday and Wednesday this half term. 

Please ensure your child comes to school with the correct P.E kit on these days. 

Homework

Children are expected to read for at least 10 minutes every night. We encourage Juniors to start taking responsibility and writing their own comments but please do ensure an adult signs the log as well.

Children have their TTRockstars logins in their Reading Logs. As the Multiplication Check is of key importance in Year 4, please also be practising daily! Thank you for your support with your child's progress.

Drop off and Pick up

We operate a 'Drop and Go' system in the mornings. Children can access our free breakfast club from 8:15am, entering from our main entrance or enter through our KS2 gates from 8:25 until 8:45am.

School finishes as 3:10pm, where we will dismiss children from the KS2 playground. Please remind your child to inform their teacher they can see an adult before leaving our care.
