General Information
Homework
Homework will be sent home on a Friday in homework books to be returned to school the following Wednesday. Alternatively work can be uploaded on SEESAW. If for any reason your child has a problem with any aspect of the homework, please let us know prior to due date so that we can explain it again or complete it in school.
Homework will include:
-Spellings will be sent home in spelling books and be tested on a Wednesday.
-Times tables which will be tested weekly on Fridays.
-a written piece/ maths piece based on our learning that week
and of course reading
Your help with reading, spellings, times tables and homework is greatly appreciated.
Times tables
Learning times tables is particularly important for Y4 as they will be sitting the MTC (national multiplication times table test) in June, where they are expected to have mastered all their times tables up to and including the 12 times table.
We practise our times tables regularly and use Times tables Rockstars to help us improve our fluency. Children have their own log ins and can practise both at school and at home, click the link below to find out more about using the website at home.

Reading
It is vital to be reading each and every night. Sometimes it can seem tricky to choose a book that you enjoy reading, if this is a problem for you it can be handy to use the BookTrust Book Finder website or talk to us at school. We have compiled a list of some suggested books but feel free to let us know of others you have enjoyed so we can add them to the list.
