Spring Term 2023

Our topic this term is called Indian Adventure and much of our learning will be linked to this.  We will be studying music, stories and culture from this fascinating country and the geography of India.  We are very excited about this topic!!

We will also be concentrating our efforts on learning times tables so any extra practice at home would be brilliant please!

HOMEWORK

We will set weekly homework which will be available via seesaw or on occasion we will send home a paper copy.

READING

We encourage your child to read to you at least 3 times per week and for you to share a book with them too. Please record this in their reading journal and send the journals to school daily so that we can add when we hear your child read.  This year we have set ebooks which are aimed at improving speed and fluency of reading.  Passwords have been sent home.

SPELLING
Spelling will be set on seesaw or paper

TIMES TABLES

As mentioned in the presentation, in year 4 there is a national times times spelling test administered in the summer term so all children will be expected to know these 'off by heart' and it is a big focus this year.
