Autumn Home Learning Information for Year Four
This coming year, the home learning expectations are as follows:
Each
week, there will be times table practice and either a written
consolidation or MyMaths task set. (30 minutes) Each week, the
children will take part in a times table test.
In
school, we have a weekly focus on a spelling rule. A list of spellings
to learn that follow the week's rule will be provided. (20 minutes) Class teachers will test each week's spelling list.
Children should read with an adult at least three times a week at home. Where possible, this could be every day. Renaissance Home Connect enables parents to see information about your child's progress within Accelerated Reader. Reading Diaries will be checked weekly by class teachers.
This home learning will be set on a Thursday and will be due in the following Tuesday. Home learning will begin on Thursday 12th September.
