4H 2024 - 2025

Welcome to 4H!

This half term, we will continue to learn about the Romans but our focus moves from the army and conquests to how the Romans lived in the towns and settlements.  We will be looking forward to our Design and Technology week and performing in our Christmas concert where we will be proudly showing you how much we have learned on our ukuleles.  

If you ever have any questions about our learning please get in touch via Dojo. 

Reading books

Your child will continue to need support with their reading at home even though they may now read fluently.  You can help to make sure they have understood the new vocabulary they are reading and ask them questions about what they have read.  Reading books will be changed on Tuesdays and Fridays with library books being changed every other Thursday.  All reading counts! Your child should record their reading in their Learning Record and return it to school every day.

PE

PE is on a Wednesday in 4H but it may be easier for your child to keep their kits in school from Monday to Friday.  Please note that children doing sports after school should bring in a different kit to wear for these clubs.

Homework

Please encourage your child to complete their homework on time and get into good routines ready for upper Key Stage 2 next year.  Your child will recieve 2 pieces of homework in addition to reading regularly and practising times tables.  Sometimes this will include a more creative piece of work over two weeks but most homework will be given out on a Friday for the following Tuesday.  Spellings will be given on the Monday to learn for a test the following Monday. We have added in some small times tables tests this half term.  These will be tested like the spelling tests.  Please support your child in learning these facts out of order so they can answer them quickly.

I look forward to working with you and your child this year and will update our gallery and the class Dojo with photographs of our learning as the year progresses.  As always, if you have any questions please contact me or Mrs Palmer via our Class Dojo messages.

Thank you 

 Mrs Harvey and Mrs Palmer
