Swimming in the Spring term takes place on a Thursday. Please remember that you can come into school with your swimming kit in a bag and that earrings and jewellery are also removed. Throughout the year, we are also lucky enough to have additional sports coaches. Information regarding these sessions will be sent out on school ping closer to the time.
Spellings are taught in class. Please use homework time during the week to practice 3 spellings from the year 4 spelling list. On DB primary you will find vocabulary lists as well as a range of activities and resources that you can use to learn these.
Due to year 4 times table test at the end of the academic year, Maths homework will always be focused on learning and practicing times tables. Please use TT rockstars to learn your set tables as well as competing between your classes!
Year 4 are encouraged to continue reading aloud to someone at home. Not only does this improve fluency, but allows children to ask and answer questions about the texts using their bookmarks. Reading books can be changed every Monday and Thursday.
During the Spring term, year 4 are learning to play the violin. In the past we have had trumpet, cornets and clarinet lessons. This year we shall be learning the violin! The teachers are very excited as this is one instrument neither of them have learnt!
