Trip reminder… Attingham Park

We are all looking forward to our trip to Attingham Park tomorrow (13/11/18). Children need to come into school at normal time and we will be leaving at 9:15am. The children will need to bring a packed lunch with them and plenty of drinks for the day.

As we are experiencing colder weather, we would advise children to wear or bring a hat and gloves. They will be outside for most of the day so warm clothing is a must. The children are building dens outside so we would also suggest that the clothes are warm and potentially old.

We will be back by the end of the school day.

Thank you!

 

 

Swimming and trip!

As year 4 are on a school trip on Tuesday, we will be swimming on Monday. Therefore, children will need their swimming kits on Monday instead. Please can we remind any child with long hair will need to wear a swimming cap.

The children need to bring a packed lunch for the school trip on Tuesday. It is due to be very cold and they will be outside for most of the day. Therefore, we would suggest wearing warm, old clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty. When the children are den building they will need gloves.

 

 

Homework – Week 10!

Spellings Wk 10

This week the children have a variety of national curriculum spellings to learn. The spelling test will be next Friday (16th).

On top of this, the children have a multiplication activity. These are testing multiplication recall and the inverse using division. If your child is stuck, we would suggest using a multiplication grid to help with the tricky questions. You can find these online.

Homework will be due in Monday 12th or Tuesday 13th of November.

Well done to all the children for a fantastic week!

One more for luck…

Finally, the P.E times have changed as a result of year 4 swimming.

4S will have P.E on a Monday afternoon.

4J will have P.E on a Thursday afternoon.

4F will continue to have P.E on a Friday.

Swimming!

The children will be delighted to hear that the swimming pool is not going to be closed after half term. Therefore, we will be swimming on a Tuesday every week until Christmas.

Children will need a one piece costume or trunks; a towel and a swimming cap. If for any reason you would like your child to be excused from swimming that week, please send them into school with a letter explaining why.

Thank you,

 

Half term homework!

When we return to school, it is national Peace week to celebrate the end of the First World War. Therefore, we are asking the children to research a local war hero… Wilfred Owen. They can decide what they would like to research and can present it in a poster or a fact file. The purpose of this will help support our Literacy as we explore two boys who grew up and went to war together. The research will help children recognise a real life perspective of WW1.

Spellings Wk 9

On top of this, the spellings are continuing to look into plurals. They will be tested on their spellings the first Friday back.

Even though it is half term, the children are still expected to read at least 3 times a week with an adult and record their reading in their diaries.

Homework is due in Monday 5th or Tuesday 6th of November.

Have a great week off!

 

Homework – Week 8

This week the children’s spellings are all plurals ending with an es.

For homework the children are focusing on adverbs. They have 5 sentences where they need to identify the adverb within. Then, they need to put the 5 adverbs into their own sentences (remembering full stops and capital letters).

The homework will be due in Monday 22nd or Tuesday 23rd of October.

Due to finishing school for half term on Thursday, the spelling test will be brought forward to Thursday 25th October.

Have a great weekend!

 

Homework – Week 7!

For homework this week, the children have addition pyramids to complete. They also need to read 3 times to an adult and practise their spellings.

Homework is due in Monday 15th or Tuesday 16th of October. The spelling test will be Friday 19th.

Spellings Wk 7

Have a great weekend!
