Year 4 Teaching Team
Mrs Doherty (Teacher)
I would like to welcome you and your children to Year 4. The children have settled into Year 4 really well already and I am excited to see how they grow and develop over the coming year. There are a lot of exciting challenges and experiences ahead of us, including an exciting visit to Coombe Abbey where the children will do a river study, taking our learning beyond the classroom. We are looking forward to a busy and enjoyable year.
Children will take part in daily maths and spelling lessons. They will also have reading, computing, RE, PE, science and French lessons throughout the week. All other subjects will be taught through our Knowledge Rich Projects. These projects allow children to develop their knowledge and skills in a creative and engaging way.
Please try to listen to your child read for 10 minutes every night and write a comment in your child’s reading record. This will really help your child to become a confident, fluent reader. Another important skill is to be able to recall all the facts in the multiplication tables up to 12 x 12. Practise reciting your tables as often as you can using this link https://mathsframe.co.uk/en/resources/resource/477/Multiplication-Tables-Check
For the Spring Term (2) PE will be on Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays, children should come to school wearing the St Anne's school PE Kits. This must be plain navy tracksuit bottoms or shorts (depending on the weather, we do try and take the children outside as much as possible). These should be paired with a branded St Anne's PE top & hoodie.
We have many opportunities planned to engage and excite the children to help them enjoy all of their learning. I look forward to you sharing in those times and I am really looking forward to getting to know you and your children this year.
If you have any concerns or questions, please do not hesitate to talk to me.
