Rick Riordan Class
I hope you have all had a wonderful holiday. We cannot wait to welcome you back next week! Here is some information about our class and the year ahead.
Our class name is ‘Rick Riordan’, it was chosen because “being a hero doesn’t mean you’re invincible, it means you’re brave enough to stand up and do what’s right!”.
8:45 am: Learning begins! The gate will be open from 8.35am and children may come straight to the classroom from this time ready to start lessons at 8.45am.
10.30am-10.45am: Morning Break
12:15 pm: End of morning session.
1:00 pm: Afternoon session begins.
3:15 pm: End of school day. The children have been reminded not to leave school if they cannot see their adult, please inform us if somebody different is collecting them from school.
Children will read in school, both as an individual and in groups. We also ask that children aim to read for 10 minutes each day at home and complete at least 3 reading entries but aim to complete 5 as part of their homework routine. The children will be shown how to complete a reading entry in order to help their understanding. We value your contribution too, please record any comments or questions regarding your child’s reading in their diary.
Children are welcome to select books from the library or choose their own from home. Those who are not quite ready for free reading will continue with the school reading scheme and progress through each stage until they have acquired the skills needed to make the transition. If your child is not a free reader, in addition to their self-chosen book they will also bring home a banded reading book, these will be changed once a week on a Monday. Books should be brought into school every day. Here is a list of suggested books to read in year 4:
Homework:
Homework will be set in order to consolidate children’s learning and understanding. We ask that you encourage and support your child to complete these tasks. By the end of Year 4, children are expected to know all of the times tables facts up to 12x12; they will complete the national multiplication check in the final summer half term. Evidence shows that those children who complete 20 minutes practise each week on TT Rockstars achieve full marks on the Multiplication Check. Therefore, this will be the expectation each week. Additional Maths homework will be uploaded on to ‘My Maths’ every Monday. Spellings will also be set on a Monday, children should learn these ready for a spelling quiz the following Monday.
This term, we have some exciting topics:
Maths - Multiplication and Division
English - Hadrians Wall- Real Writing
Reading - KrindleKrax by Philip Ridley
Science - Animals including humans.
Geography - Counties and cities of the UK with a focus on the Derbyshire Dales.
DT - Food and nutrition.
RE - What is it like for someone to follow God?
PE - Fundamentals/OAA (Outdoor Adventurous Activity)
Computing - Computing systems and networks – the Internet
PSHE - TEAM (Together Everyone Achieves More)
Spanish - The Wider World
Music - Mamma Mia!
We encourage children to research our topics at home and bring in any appropriate books or resources to share with everyone.
The children will be involved in two PE sessions a week. We ask that kit is clearly labelled and worn on that day. Indoor PE activities will be on a Monday and outdoor PE will be on a Friday.
PE kit:
Trainers
Navy jogging bottoms or leggings/shorts.
White t-shirt and Navy sweatshirt/jumper.
Earrings - if your child cannot remove these independently, they should not be worn on PE days.
Long hair should be tied back.
Break Time Snacks
Children are welcome to bring in a healthy snack for the morning break time. We are a nut free school so please ensure any snacks do not contain nuts. Snacks are not to be shared with other children as there are a number of children with specific food allergies. All children should bring a school water bottle to school. Water bottles are available from the office for a small fee.
If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to get in touch via the school office.
