Reading
Each child will be given a books to take home and read.
Books bags should be brought into school on a FRIDAY for books to be changed. Rereading books is important to develop fluency and comprehension, so please encourage your child to read their book more than once. When reading with an adult in school, we will be using school books and keeping a separate reading record.
Children therefore only need to bring their book bags to school when they need their reading book to be changed.
Please read with your child at least 5 times a week at home. There will be a 'reading club' held on a Friday lunchtime for anyone who doesn't complete their reading or would like to read more.
Times Tables
In year 4, we continue to practice our times tables in the run up to the Multiplication Times Tables Check in June. Therefore, it is an expectation that children practice their times tables at least 3 times a week at home. Here is a practice version of the times table test:
Multiplication Tables Check - 2023 - Timestables.co.uk
This term, we are practicing our 6 times tables and 8 times tables every day using times table booklets in the classroom. If you would like a copy of the booklet for your child to practice at home, please see below.
As well as a paper copy, your child has a personal login for Times Tables Rockstars to help them to do this. Children are able to access the teacher set times table through the garage option on Times Tables Rockstars.
