Welcome back to the second half of Summer Term!
As we continue to journey into the unknown, both Mrs Sedgwick and I would like to commend you all on the positivity, resilience and creativitiy you have shown in your learning over the past few months. We continue to be blown away by the ideas you are coming up with to make your learning fun.
Throughout this different and unusual time, remember that even though continuing your learning journey is important, it is far more important that you are happy, healthy and smiling. These strange times will not last forever and the Y4 team cannot wait to welcome you back, whenever that time will be.
But as the end of the school year is slowly coming into view, we would like you to know we could not be more proud to be teachers in this school, and to have you as our children. Keep up the amazing work and remember, we are all in this together ❤

Can we please remind you that in order for your children to reach their true potential, it is essential that they have a water bottle in school at all times. Their brains are 75% water so it is important that they can access a drink of water throughout the school day. Unfortunately, there is limited capacity within school to provide children with cups etc, but water bottles are on sale at the finance office for £1.50. Alternatively, a clear plastic bottle, clearly labelled with your child’s name, would be sufficient. We thank you for your continued cooperation.

PE is a little bit different this half term though just as important!
While you are at home, how can you stay fit? How can you get your hearth pumping? Perhaps you could take part in Joe Wicks’ online keep fit videos, run around your garden, during your daily exercise allowance go out on your bike with an adult, jump on your trampoline? The list of activities is endless so please send us your keep fit photos through Class Dojo to show us how creative you can be!

The Year 4 team have created a ‘Chilli Challenge’ information sheet, and on this sheet it gives you information of all the things you should be doing EVERYDAY, and then you get to choose which activities you do after that.
This information sheet will be reviewed every 2 weeks so the next one you will recieve is Monday 15th June, and will include different curriculum subjects.
We hope you enjoy this style of learning better than waiting for us to post things everyday, as this means you will hopefully be able to plan your time better and settle into more of a routine.
Printed versions of this information sheet are available at the school office if you’d prefer a hard copy.
As always, we LOVE to see what you have been up to, so don’t forget to send us pictures of your learning.. In addition to the work set on there, children could access Spelling Shed, Times Tables Rockstars and the times table check website (https://www.timestables.co.uk/multiplication-tables-check/) and or course, the new workbooks, avaible from the office from 5.6.20
In addition to this, remember that there is learning all around us. How about learning to measure accurately while making some yummy cakes? Or explore reversible and irreversible changes while baking? Perhaps you could raid your recycling bins and create a machine them write an explanation of how it works?
The learning opportunities are endless so have fun!!

Reading is an essential part of the school curriculum and can open up many doors for your child in the future. Reading frequently can improve your child’s memory, increase vocabulary, unlock creativity and is a low cost form of entertainment! With this in mind, children should be encouraged to read regularly at home and reminded to return their reading book to school on a daily basis. For every time their reading record is signed at home, your child will earn a sticker on the class reading chart, which will eventually lead them to gaining certificates and rewards for their effort.
So, put it down, turn it off and read a book!
