Year 4
Welcome to Year 4
This year, Miss Middleton and Miss Harris will be teaching your child. Below are some useful pieces of information but should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
PE
PE lessons will be on a Tuesday and Friday for the first term. The PE kit consists of black pumps/trainers, black shorts/jogging bottoms and a plain white T-shirt which are clearly labelled with your child’s name.
Entrance to School
Good attendance and punctuality is very important at Fiddlers Lane.
Register is taken at 8:45 and classroom doors will be locked at this time. If you are late to school, please take your child to the school office to register and explain why you are late.
You will not be able to accompany your child to the classroom.
Reading and Homework
Reading
It is very important that your child reads at home as much as possible. Your child will be bringing home books suitable to their current level of ability in reading. It would be fantastic if you could support your child by reading with them to continue their progress. If your child can read and have their reading record signed a minimum of three times a week, they will earn a reward for our Reading Race, which they can then cash in at the end of the half term for a prize.
Maths
At the end of Year 4, your child will be taking part in a national multiplication tables check, which is compulsory for all Year 4 children across the country to complete. As such, in Year 4 we will be placing an emphasis practicing times tables facts which are not only useful for the tables check, but their progress in all areas of the maths curriculum.
School Uniform
Please remember to label your child’s uniform, especially their jumpers, cardigans and coats.
We hope your children will be very happy in Year 4, and we look forward to working with them.
Kind regards,
Year 4 Team
