Miss E Barnes
Year 4 Class Teacher
Hello and Welcome to our Year 4 class page. I am Miss Barnes the class teacher.
Reading
Children should bring their reading books with their reading record books daily for our guided reading sessions. Children are encouraged to write in their reading record books about what they are currently reading. Children can change their books once they have read and understood the text.
Homework
As children are getting older it is important to promote the importance of routine in completing weekly homework tasks. Children in Year 4 receive Homework on a Friday and Homework books needed to be handed in on a Wednesday. Homework tasks that are set in homework books are: Weekly spellings - Spelling tests will be a Friday. A Math's or English set activity, and the choice to complete 2 activities throughout the half term from their topic homework grid.
At the end of the academic year children in Year 4 throughout the country take the timetable test. Its essential children are practising their timetables through TTRS at home as well as in school. 10 mins per day is suggested. If you need a new log in for TTRS let Miss Barnes know. We have various competitions and prizes awarded for children who use this at home.
Seesaw
Seesaw is a brilliant way to communicate with parents and pupils. If you need a new seesaw code let me know. It’s a platform to ask questions, see what we have been doing in class and to post pictures of their homework or anything they would like to share with their teachers and friends.
PE
PE days are Tuesday and Wednesday.
