Tawny Owls Year 4 2024 - 2025

Curriculum Learning Autumn 2

A warm welcome to Tawny Owls’ class! I hope you have all had a lovely break and are ready for your next enriching term in Year 4.

Tawny Owls’ class will be taught by Miss Michiels, along with the support of Mrs Henderson who will carry out interventions and assist our class where needed. Mrs Austin will be teaching Year 4 on Wednesdays. 

This term, P.E. lessons will take place on Wednesday morning and Thursday afternoon. Please ensure your child brings in the correct P.E. kit and trainers every Monday morning. During the Autumn term, children should bring warm tracksuit joggers, a zip-up hoodie or jumper, a hat and gloves for when they venture outside. Please make sure that all P.E. clothing is labelled clearly, so lost items can be returned to their rightful owner. Also, provide a water bottle and waterproof coat for your child daily. 

Reading, Spelling and Maths homework will be set each Friday and is due the following Wednesday. There will be 2 pieces of homework for your child to complete, some via online learning platforms. Please help your child complete their homework and hand it in on time. 
There will be ongoing times table challenges set on TTRockstars that your child can complete independently at home in readiness for the Multiplication Tables Check this school year.

Daily reading at home is essential, and we advise that children in Lower Key Stage 2 regularly read for 10-15 minutes which will help your child develop confidence as a Cuddington Reader and help them meet lots of characters and visit many new places within new stories, adventures and real-life events. A love for reading and authors, to develop new vocabulary and strengthen their writing skills. Whilst listening to your child, ask them questions about events that have happened so far, characters' thoughts and motives and to make accurate predictions based on the text as this will develop their comprehension skills. 

To keep up to date with what is happening in our class, regularly check our Class Dojo story.
