Welcome to the Year 4 class page. Mr McInerney is the class teacher with Mrs Rose supporting each day. Miss Booker also teaches the class on Tuesdays.  

Homework will be given out on a Friday and should be returned on a Thursday for marking. Spellings will also be given out on a Friday to practise for the following week, they will be stuck in planners but can be practised in homework books. Times Tables Rock Stars and Rollama will also be used to set homework tasks throughout the year.  Children will be informed when this happens. 

PE days are Wednesday and Thursday and will be outdoors weather permitting so please ensure that appropriate PE kit is in school. It is suggested that it is brought on Monday and taken home on Friday to allow for any last minute changes. 

Each child will have a reading for pleasure book which can be selected from the class book shelf, the 50 recommended reads shelf or the school library. Reading books will be changed in class when needed and children will take ownership of this.

Please make sure you try to read daily at home!  If you read four times a week and it is written in your Personal Organiser, you will get a raffle ticket to join our reading raffle! 

Our Reading Scrapbook will also be sent home each week to further share our love of reading in class. 

Summer 1

Y4 have worked hard this half term and have really enjoyed learning about Eastertide in RE. We've had a great time celebrating and learning some new songs too! 

We've gone from strength to strength in maths and have gained a deep understanding of fractions including mixed numbers! 

In Literacy, we loved reading the book Cinnamon and writing our own narratives with a similar structure. 

Spring 

The spring term has been packed full of fun and learning for Y4. We've really enjoyed taking part in sporting events and gave it our all at kick rounders!

We worked incredibly hard while practising for our Last Supper liturgy and did an amazing job performing in front of parishioners and parents at Holy Rood Church. 

We even managed to code our own micro-bits this term and had great fun learning how to debug the code and create our own digital timers. 

Autumn 2

Year 4 really enjoyed the second half of the autumn term. They have learnt so much! 

In maths, they learnt all about perimeter and area and started to explore the multiplication facts up to 12 x 12. They even explored the relationships between adjacent multiples! 

In Literacy, the class loved studying the book, Tar Beach. They had great fun creating their own play scripts and acting them out too! 

In History, the children continued to explore the Ancient Greeks and by the end of the term, were experts on all things Greek mythology. They also enjoyed learning about the first Olympic Games.

We can't wait to see what the spring term will bring!  

Autumn 1

Year 4 have really enjoyed the start to the year and have learnt so much already. Here they are exploring light and dark in their art lessons and using manipulatives to explore place value and multiples of 100.
