Class 4 Newsletter
Dear Parents/Carers,
I hope you all enjoyed the Easter break and are looking forward to Year Four’s final term at Heathwood!
PE
Now that swimming has finished for Class 4, PE lessons will take place on a Monday and a Thursday. Both sessions will be outside and will include football, tennis, athletics, Rounders and Kwik cricket. Therefore, please ensure your child has the correct PE kit in school on these days (black shorts, purple t-shirt and plimsolls/trainers). We will be aiming to have outdoor PE sessions wherever possible therefore as the weather gets warmer children should ensure they have a sun hat and a water bottle in school. However, as previous, on chilly days tracksuits bottoms, a fleece/jumper and trainers might be advisable.
In preparation for Middle School, please note that children who do not have the correct kit in school will not be able to take part and will be set work which they will complete in the library area or on the field.
Homework
This term the children will receive a topic related homework and a Numeracy related homework. Your child has further information about the homework but if you need further clarification please feel free to pop in and speak to me. This half-term’s homework is set for several weeks and completion dates have been included on separate letters. In addition children should be continuing to access EducationCityvia the Learning Platform where short, weekly activities can be completed to support personal targets, in class learning and consolidation of skills.
Once again, in preparation for Middle School, those children who do not complete the homework and return it on the due date will be expected to complete it in their break times whilst supervised in the library area.
Reading
Once again, just to say thank you to all those parents who are taking the time to read with their child as regularly as possible, I am sure you will agree what a difference it makes to both their reading and writing! I would be very grateful if all parents could ensure they read at least three times a week at home with their child and make a note of it in their reading log.
Year 4 Curriculum
You will also receive a Curriculum Leaflet detailing what the children will be learning during their final term at Heathwood, which I hope you will find useful. If you feel you are able to share your own knowledge with the children in class then please come in to discuss this with me.
If you have any concerns about your son/daughter or any questions/queries then please feel free to call into class before or after school and speak to me.
Many thanks
Mrs. Wright
Class 4 Teacher
