Key Information:

Homework

Homework in year 4 is based around the basic skills that the children need to build on. We expect children to read at home daily for about 10 minutes. At the end of this year all children in Year 4 will take the Year 4 multiplication check therefore we also expect that multiplication, division, addition and subtraction facts are practised about three times a week. Spellings should be practised twice a week. Your child will bring home passwords for various online platforms which they can use to practise these skills but they can also use pencil and paper or a combination - whatever works best for you and your child.

PE - Monday and Wednesday

Basketball will be taught by a coach from Active Tameside on a Wednesday

Football will be taught in the other PE session. This will be on a Monday and be taught by Mr Davenport.

Please make sure they have an appropriate kit for outdoor PE- trainers or pumps and black/dark blue bottoms and white top. This may be left in the children's locker. 

Music - Monday

Music will take place on Mondays and we will be  taught by Miss Hughes. The children have the chance to learn by appraising and composing music and playing instruments. 

Water bottles/snack

Please make sure your child brings a water bottle to school every day. Please also send them with a healthy snack for break time. It is a long time for the children to go until dinnertime without anything to eat.
