Our school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. We expect all staff, visitors and volunteers to share this commitment. If you have any concerns regarding the safeguarding of any of our pupils please contact our Designated Safeguarding Lead, Mrs Smith. Please see the safeguarding section of our website under Key Information > Safeguarding.
Reading
It is important that all children continue to read to and discuss texts with an adult on a regular basis. Children should read for at least twenty minutes every night. Reading records must be signed by an adult to confirm that daily reading has been done. This should include the name of the book and the number of pages read.
In Year 4, children use the accelerated reader programme which encourages them to engage with a wide variety of texts from the library. Children will then have the opportunity to select books of interest to them and complete quizzes to further develop comprehension skills and understanding.
If you would like to carry out extra activities here are some options you may wish to choose.
English
Homework is set on Friday and expected to be completed for Wednesday. English homework will reinforce the grammar lesson of that particular week.
Maths
Homework is set on Friday and expected to be completed for Wednesday. It will consolidate children's learning from that week.
Spellings
Spellings are set on Monday and children will be tested on them the following Friday. Children will learn the spelling rules and patterns in their class and will therefore be consolidating their learning.
Additional Homework/Resources
In addition to the set homework tasks, all children also have access to the Bug Books, Mathletics and TT Rockstars.
