In Y4 the children will be having swimming lessons. This term it is 4B only. It will be on Tuesdays throughout the term, starting on Tuesday 17th September, with the last swim on Tuesday 3rd December.
On swimming days, children are to come to school dressed in their PE kits, with their swimming things in a separate bag (goggles are optional but recommended). Please ensure that children have long hair tied back ready for the lesson.

Maths :
Homework sessions will be set on TTRockstars. Initially, this will be 15mins on Garage each week. Garage helps them to learn the tables they are not yet confident with. Once the 15 minutes on Garage is complete, children can play any of the games for additional practice, including 'Jamming' to practise specific tables without the timer; 'Studio' to increase your speed and Rock Status; and 'Soundcheck' to prepare for the summer term times tables test.
MyMaths: activities to be completed each week, although maths homework may sometimes be given on paper instead.

Library : We visit the library as a class each week. The library is also open to the children every lunchtime and after school on Tuesdays (with an adult.) Children may borrow two books for a period of two weeks. At the end of the loan period, books must be returned to school where the loan can be renewed if required. If a book is lost, please talk to Mrs Bickmore or Mrs Burnham. We ask for a contribution of £5.00 towards replacing lost books. Children can log in to their Reading Cloud accounts from home to check their current loans or look for suggestions about what to read next.
