Key Information

PE - We have PE on Wednesdays (Outdoor) if not Swimming and Thursdays (Indoor). Please ensure that your child comes into school in their PE kits on these days.

Library - Every Friday.

Spellings - Given out every Thursday and due back the following Wednesday. Your child needs to practise each word three times (on different days is best). Each week, there will also be a DoodleSpell added extra. Your child needs to complete 3 practices and then the test for the added extra to be complete. They can earn 5EP for ‘DoodleSpelling’ and another 5EP if they score 100% in their weekly dictation.

Maths (Mrs Haughney's group) - = Given out every Wednesday and due back the following Monday.

Reading - We encourage children to read at least 3 times a week. They can also earn a Star Reader Award and 5 EP. Reading Records will be checked on Mondays.

Brain Builder - Once a half term, your child will receive a Brain Builder. This will need to be completed by the date in the Brain Builder and will be linked to work completed in class.

Doodle - Encourage your child to play DoodleMaths, DoodleTables and DoodleSpell three times per week. That’s a potential 15 EP to be earned each week! Their play in school (Friday Board Work) counts towards this. DoodleClub is on a Wednesday lunchtime for Year 4.

Towards the end of Year 4, there is an online statutory Times Tables Test, covering all tables up to 12 x 12. Click on the TwinklGo link below and enter the code CK3468 to play. If you improve your score, make sure you let your maths teacher know!

This half term

1/4

We journeyed through the digestive system, all the way from the mouth to the anus.

2/4

Can you believe the small intestines are 7m long? That’s as long as our classroom!

3/4

Once our bodies have taken all the nutrients (good stuff) from our food, what’s left is stored in the rectum.

4/4

Then, the waste (poo!) comes out of the anus. Why not test your knowledge using the BBC Bitesize link below?

Previous half terms

As part of our DT work, we looked at shell structures and chocolate bar wrappers. We even made our own scrumptious chocolate bars!

In PSCHE, we have been thinking about online safety and the impact of people's actions.

Can you play Band Runner and answer the E-Safety questions correctly?

In Hedgehogs, we have been learning about teeth. Egg shells are made up of a similar chemical to the enamel of our teeth.

2/6

So, we put eggs in a selection of our chosen drinks and observed what happened.

3/6

After a week, we took the eggs out to see what had happened.

4/6

We know that it’s so important to brush our teeth twice a day, but it’s particularly important to wash them after sugary drinks.

5/6

We were particularly surprised by the results of the egg in orange juice as it’s made with fruit juice.

6/6

Can you tell your families what happened to each egg?

1/8

At the beginning of the year, we thought about our aspirations.

Zaynah aspires to be an interior designer. If her model is anything to go by, she's going to be fab!

Your child has been tested on their Common Exception Words and has brought home a CEWs card. Please help them to practise these words. Your child needs to be able to read, understand, spell and apply these words before being able to move onto the next list. CEW tests are half-termly and updated cards are sent home at the beginning of each half term.
