English

In English, our work will be based on the book 'Escape From Pompei' by Christina Balit.  This fits in well with our history topic :Romans'.

Reading - all children will be reading a book with their peers in class.  We will be practising skills such as comprehension, inference, retrieval and developing vocabulary.

What can I do to support my child at home?

Reading - Read, read, read!  Try to read with your child every day.  In order to develop a love of reading, it is important that you read to your child as well as listening to them read.  

Spelling - children will be working on spelling patterns at school.  The common exception words for Year 1 and 2 and Years 3 and 4 are saved in the files section on this page.  PLease practise these at home.

 

 

Maths

Our main focus this term will be times tables.

 What can I do to support my child at home?

Years Three and Four are the years when children need to become fluent on all times table facts to 12 x 12. 

 

In Year Three, children need to know multiplication facts for the  2, 5,10, 3, 4 and 8 times tables by heart.

In Year Four, children need to know these, plus facts for the 6, 7, 9, 11 and 12 times tables 

 

To practise the Year 4 times table test go to https://mathsframe.co.uk/en/resources/resource/477/Multiplication-Tables-Check

You can programme individual tables to be tested on or a random mix.

Oxford Owl have a great guide to learning times tables with hints, tips and games.
