Welcome to a new academic year in Willow Class.

In Willow class we always try our best to think, solve, create, grow and reflect on our learning.

Miss Rebucha is the class teacher until October half term. Mrs Hall supports our learning in Year 4.

In English we have begun looking at The Firework Makers Daughter by Phillip Pullman, exploring this narrative text to develop characterisation and setting descriptions. To further support their learning please encourage the children to read at least 3 times a week, record and up load their reading of a wide variety of books.

In Maths we have begun looking at Place Value and the children have already blown our socks off with their SUPERB maths skills!

TImes Tables are very important in Year 4 and TT Rockstars and Hit the Button are great places for daily practice.

In Science we will be looking at Electricity.

In Geography we are going to explore our local area, the UK and our transport.

Our PE days are Monday and Wednesday, it is really important the children remember their PE kits in school for these days. We will be going outside to learn some invasion skills in Rugby so please make sure the children have suitable footwear and tracksuit bottoms for the upcoming cooler weather.

Mrs Butcher will be teaching RE, Music and French on a Wednesday morning.

Our topic in Art is the work of L.S. Lowry thorugh ‘All Work and No Play’. The children will be exploring mediums including watercolorus, pastels and sketching with a carefully selected appropriate colour palette.

RHE & My Happy Minds will focus on the children’s physical and mental health and wellbeing, appreciating ourselves and others.

Homework will be set every Friday and should be submitted via Showbie ready for the following Friday morning (or a paper copy brought into school)

Children MUST bring their iPads into school every morning fully charged please!

If you have any questions or concerns please either speak to us at drop off or pick up, or alternatively please email [email protected] and I will respond in a timely manner.

Happy New Year in Willow Class
