Mr C Donnelly

Welcome to 4A!

We are so excited to start the school year with your children! We are looking forward to lots of fun, learning, imagination and creativity. You will be able to find key dates and information on this page, alongside the children's learning. 

Our Autumn topics will be 'Covenant and Creation' in RE, Fantasy Stories in English, The Great Plague in History and Number in Maths. 

In Year 4 we place a huge emphasis on learning our times tables as the children will complete the official Multiplication Tables Check (MTC) in June. It is important that the children continue their learning of times tables at home.  To help with this, the children's reading diaries have their Times Table Rock Star logins so they can practise at home. 

Reminders:

• Children are expected to read regularly at home and have their reading records signed. It is advised that they do this every evening.  Ten minutes a night will make such a difference! 

• PE this term will be swimming on Thursday afternoons. Please ensure that the children have their swimming costumes/shorts and a towel. Ear rings must not be worn. 

• Homework will be sent out on a Friday and this is to be completed in their homework book and will be due back the following Wednesday.

• Spellings will be sent home on a Friday and children will need to learn these words for the following Friday.

I will keep you updated on our Class Dojo page with photographs/messages and I will update you with key information on here too. 

We have an open door policy and we are happy to speak to you about anything you are concerned about, or want to know more information about. Feel free to grab either of us before or after school or you can message us on Class Dojo.

Thanks,

 Mr Donnelly and Mrs Gibbs
