Welcome to Year 4!
During the first half-term, In English we will be reading a book called 'Mama Miti' written by Donna Jo Napoli. We will be using this text for children to create their own biographies!
In Maths, we will be looking at place value, specifically:
- Numbers to 10000
- Addition and Subtraction
In Science, we will be learning about 'Exciting Electricity', children will be exploring how circuits and switches work and how lamps connect to a circuit in order to work.
In P.E. children will be learning new skills in Netball, particularly interpersonal skills and how to transfer the ball successfully working well as part of a team. Children will also be learning new skills in Gymnastics.
In Art, we will be doing abstract drawing and exploring the work of Picasso. Children will be using mirrors to identify own features, using lines and shapes to create abstract drawings of themselves.
Important Information:
Current spellings can be found below. These will be updated each half-term. Please ensure that your child practices these as often as they can. Spelling tests will be on a Monday. Maths home learning is set on Wednesdays and due back by the following Monday. We also strongly encourage the children to read at home. New books will be sent out on a Friday and will be expected on a Wednesday with Reading Journals.
Times Tables Rockstars (TTRS):
Children in Year 4 will complete a Multiplation Times table check - known as MTC. We will be practising these at school, however it is important that your child also has access to practice these at home. Each child now has a log-in, which can be found at the front of their maths home learning books. Please encourage your child to log-in and practice at home.

Swimming will start in Spring and continue through to the Summer term. Swimming will be on Wednesdays where the children also come dressed in their PE kits. Further communication will be sent out about this as we approach the Spring term.
