Welcome back from the Easter holidays everyone! We’re so excited to welcome you back to Potters Green and to Year 4! Our topic this term is called Invasion where we will be learning about the history of Britain from the withdrawal of the Romans, the arrival of the Anglo-Saxsons, the pillaging of the Vikings through to the invasion of the Normans.

PE

Our PE days will be Friday (Outdoor) and Tuesday (Swimming). Both require PE kit to be brought in. An outdoor PE kit is required which includes jogging bottoms, t-shirt, jumper/hoody and trainers. We recommend bringing in a carrier bag too as trainers are often muddy and covered in grass, so will not be able to be worn in the classroom.

Swimming kit must be brought in order to take part in the swimming lessons. Goggles are allowed. Long hair must be tied for health and safety reasons. Swimming kit should come be brought in on a Monday morning and taken home at the end of the day on Tuesdays.

Homework

Children have homework set on Seesaw weekly.

Times tables Rockstars (TTR) is an excellent way to encourage children to learn their times tables, we are focusing on every times table this term in preparation for their Multiplication Year 4 Check. All children have been given their logins and are able to log in and play!

Spelling Shed via www.edshed.com - is full of games which are geared to encourage your child with spelling tricky and common exception words. Logins can be found in the front of your homework book.

Reading Books will be changed once the child has finished reading their book. Children will be heard in class. Children should be reading 3 times at home to an adult and recorded in their reading records with a signature of who heard them read.
