Year 3/4 2024 - 2025

Welcome to Year 3/4's class page

Our class teacher is Mrs Cheetham.

Ms Tarjanyi helps us with our learning.

The door opens on the Junior yard for our class at 8.40am and the school day starts at 8.45am. For collection at the end of the day, the children are brought to the Junior yard to be collected by their parents at 3.20pm.

Homework

Homework each week will usually consist of:

1x Literacy and 1x Maths

Each half term:1 x Other (usually science or topic work)

Daily 5 minutes of spelling and timestables

Homework will be sent home on a Friday and will be due back into school on or before the following Tuesday

If children ever have problems with their homework, please encourage them to speak to me about it as soon as possible. We can then go through it again together before it is due to be handed in.

General Reminders…

Indoor PE- Monday

Outdoor PE- Thursday

Please ensure your child has their PE kit in school and that all items are clearly labelled. Trainers and a sweatshirt or jumper may be worn for outdoor PE.

Children should have in school a small water bottle with a non-spill spout.

Reading

We change our books when necessary. Please read with your child every evening for at least 15 minutes and sign the Reading Diary. In the diary you will find questions to help you read with your child. The children need to be able to decode the words and also need to learn how to 'read for meaning'. The children should be able to read the book that they have chosen and answer questions about the book. They will have a task to complete once a week using their reading book to help them.

Class Dojo

The school is continuing to use the Class Dojo software as a reward system. Most parents are already signed up from last year but for those who aren't, a letter detailing how to sign up and access the app will be sent home with your child. Once downloaded, you will then be able to see how your child is getting on in class and have access to the message facility where I will post updates about the class.
