‘Growing Kind Hearts and Curious Minds’

Year 4

Welcome to Year 4 

 

Hello and welcome to the Year 4 class page. The Year 4 teachers are Mrs Davison and Mr Bateman. Teaching Assistants working with the children this year are Mrs Robertshaw, Mrs Cooper and Mrs Padbury. Mrs Coppin and Mrs Hoskins will be spending time teaching in Year 4 too.

 

We will be updating our class page regularly, giving you snapshots of our every day learning in class and any special events we may hold. 

 

If you would like to speak to us or need to send us a message, we can be contacted via email at davison@kidgateprimary.co.uk or bateman@kidgateprimary.co.uk

 

Important Information

Our PE sessions are on Thursdays for both classes and Friday for the class not swimming. 4D will be swimming for the first half term starting from the 13th September. If your child wears earrings please either remove them before school or ensure your child knows how to remove the the earrings themselves before the PE or swimming session. 

 

For swimming, it is very important that your child brings a towel along with their swimsuit or shorts.

 

Homework

  • Times Tables: Children will have a times table test each Thursday.

 

  • Spelling: Each Friday, the children will have a spelling test based on the words from the Year 3/4 spelling curriculum.

​​​​​​​

  • Reading: Children will be expected to read regularly at home. We ask that you support your child's reading by listening to them read at least 3 times a week. Please can your child bring in their reading pack each day so they are ready to read at home or in school.

In Year 4 we have been busy finding out about teeth and the digestive system in science. We have completed an investigation to test the effects of different liquids on eggs as a way of considering the effects of different liquids around our teeth. We were very surprised by the effects of cola and tea.

Class 4D have used a book (Can I build another me?) for transition into Year 4. We are very proud of the work in our gallery. The book helped us to think about things that are important to us and what makes us special, even by drawing ourselves with our own, individual tree on the tops of our heads.
