Year 4
Welcome to Year 4's page all about the fantastic things that we are doing in 4G and 4C!
We have lots of exciting things happening this half term and will share them with you here.
Reminders
Just a few reminders for the week:
PE is on a 
Monday afternoon - children need to have their kit in school to change into including a different pair of shoes to wear. Earrings need to be removed by the child or before school, we are not allowed to help with this.
Homework has been set on edshed. There is a maths quiz and spelling games set to be completed every week. Children should know their logins and these have been sent home.

Please also ma
ke sure to be logging on to TT Rockstars. This is a valuable tool to help the children learn their times tables as well as prepare them for the Multiplication Tables Check they will be taking in June. The soundcheck game mimics the real test.

Forest School
Every Thursday one of the Year 4 classes visits Ghost Woods to experience Forest School. We walk there and get the chance to explore and have the freedom to choose our activities. The swing is a popular activity as is building a mud kitchen and making a range of items out of wood.
