Our class teachers are Mrs Jackson (4CJ) and Miss Evans (4CE). The teaching assistants supporting the Y4 children are Mrs Moth, Mrs Sysum, Mr Hensley and Mrs Hensley. PPA is covered by Mrs Lowe in 4CJ and by Mrs Bate in 4CE.

This term, we will be welcoming two PGCE student teachers from the University of Gloucestershire:  Mr Easey into 4CJ and Miss Barrett in 4CE.  

During the Spring term, P.E. lessons are on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Please come to school on these days wearing P.E kit and with earrings removed. 

This term, Year 4 are learning about locations in Geography.  We will be looking at the land use and physical features of Gloucester before comparing and contrasting these with areas in Cornwall and Italy. We will also be developing our map skills as part of this unit.

Children are continuing to enjoy our OPaL lunchtime offer.  Please can they make sure to have wellies or old trainers, and waterproof trousers or old jogging bottoms in school each day so that they can make the most of all of the wonderful zones available.

 

Each week, two homework tasks will be set to be completed in their learning books.  These will be a combination of Maths, Reading and Grammar tasks and focused on current learning in school.  Tasks will be set on a Monday and due in on Friday.

Children take home a school reading book, which they can change on a Monday and Thursday. Each week, children should aim to read their home reading book at least three times and parents/carers are asked to rewrite a comment in their home reading book.  Every child has a reading book mark with questions on it.  These questions are to support parents/carers in asking your child questions about what they have read. Children need to bring their reading book and reading record into school every day.  Children should also regularly practise their times tables by logging in to Times Table Rockstars with their individual log in details.
