Reading Books

Children are asked to bring in their reading books/bags daily.  Reading record books will be signed and comments noted where necessary.  The children's books and levels will be changed as each child progresses.  Sometimes, children may be asked to repeat a book for consolidation. Understanding the text and developing comprehensions skills are as important as decoding words.  We ask that you support your child with their reading as much as possible at home.  This is essential in enabling them to become fluent readers and in reinforcing the skills learnt.

Spellings

Given out Monday – Spelling Activity on Friday.

Spellings correspond with the rule/pattern or specific phonemes your child is currently working on.

Times Tables

A huge focus in Year 4 is on times tables. Please ensure your child is using the ‘Times Tables Rock Star’ app to aid with progression.
