Welcome to Year Four

Year 4 2025-26

Class Teacher: Miss Jones
Class Teaching Partners: Mrs Holt & Mrs Duval

Welcome to Year 4! We are so excited to have you back for another fantastic year! Our topic this term is 'disasters' where we'll be looking into events like tsunamis, volcanoes and much more! 

PE

Our PE sessions are on a Tuesday (indoor) and a Wednesday (outdoor)

Please ensure your child is wearing their PE kit into school or has a PE kit in school ready for these sessions.

  • a plain white or blue t-shirt (round neck or polo type)
  • school jumper/cardigan/fleece
  • plain blue, back or grey leggings/joggers on colder days and plain blue, back or grey shorts on warmer day

When it is our turn for swimming, swimming kits must be brought into school. 

Homework

All homework will be completed digitally through EdShed & Times Table Rock Stars. Children should have their logins for these websites. If you need your child's login please let us know.

Reading

Children are expected to read each night and have Reading Records to record this in. Please ensure these are signed every time they have read. We have certificates that are awarded for regular reading.

Times tables

In Year 4, it is an expectation that all children are fluent with multiplication facts. In June, our class will complete a 'Department for Education Multiplication Check'. You can find more information about this here Multiplication tables check: information for parents - GOV.UK

As part of class preparation for this, we have structured our year to ensure all tables are covered and all children are confident.  The tables not listed have been covered in Year 3. If your child is not confident, feel free to practise these alongside. This can be found below: 

Term 2

Weeks 1 to 4  - 6x Table

Week 5 to 6 -  7x Table

Term 3 

Week 1 - 7x table

Weeks 2  to 6 - 9x table

Term 4

Weeks 1 to 3 - 11x Table 

Weeks 4 to 5 - 12x Table 

Term 5 

Weeks 1 to 3 - 12x Table 

Weeks 4 onwards - All Tables

To support at home, your child should use Times Table Rock Stars daily. This is essential for supporting their fluency and confidence. 

If you have any concerns, please contact us either through a message sent to the office or a message passed on to us at the gate in the morning. We will endeavour to get back to you promptly.
