Oak Class
Teacher: Mrs C Willsmer
The Year 4 Classroom
This Spring half term, our main topic will be migration, looking at Brazil as a case study. Within the curriculum this half term we will also be studying the book, The Boy at the Back of the Class in Reading lessons. We will be exploring narrative suspense writing in English and continuing our work on multiplication in maths. In science we will be studying sound, how it is produced and heard, and in RE we will be exploring the signficance of festivals and worship for Muslims.
Homework will be handed out every Friday and should be completed and returned by Wednesday. Homework tasks are designed to reinforce what we have been learning in class and provide additional practice.
PE will take place on Thursday and Friday. The lessons will focus on dance and basketball. Please ensure your child comes to school with a complete PE kit, a plain tracksuit for colder days and appropriate footwear. Earrings should always be removed on PE days.
Regular reading at home is vital to your child’s progress. Please encourage children to read every day and record this in their reading record. We check reading records weekly every Monday, and any support you provide at home makes a significant difference.
An update on pupil progress will be provided through parent consultations the week beginning the 10th February.
