Year 4 children line up at the top playground gate where their teacher will be waiting. If your child is going to be picked up by anyone other than the regular carer you need to inform the class teacher or the office as soon as possible. If the class teacher is unaware of any arrangements they will need to phone parents to confirm what has been agreed. Please make sure the class teacher knows who will be picking up your child to save any problems at the end of the day.
Homework
Year 4 children should be encouraged and supported to read every night. Children will be able to receive Dojo points for reading at home.
Homework will be set on Mathletics and Ed Shed, on a Monday, to be returned by the following Sunday. This will be a Maths activity and a spelling task based on the spelling rule children have been learning throughout the week.
Children also are encouraged to visit TT Rockstars in preparation for the Multiplication Check in June.
Children have been sent home log in details for the above platforms. If you require any further support please contact your class teacher in the first instance.
