Other key information:
We ask that children have a water bottle and outdoor shoes with them at school every day.
PE Days:
Kingfishers & Lapwings - Wednesday
We ask that all children have an appropriate pair of outdoor shoes in school for extra PE sessions and other outdoor learning. Children will need to come into school wearing different shoes from the ones that they wear for PE. This is to ensure that children are not brining mud through the school when PE has been completed on a wet field.
Kit for PE

Home Learning
TT Rockstars
All pupils have a log in for TT Rockstars. Times tables are a key part to the maths curriculum in Year 3 & 4. As pupils are tested on their recall of times tables in Year 4. We recommend at least 3 minutes a day in order to have an impact on their speed of recall.

Reading
Although your child will be taught to read at school, you can have a huge impact on their reading journey by continuing their practice at home. Children will bring home a book that is based on their reading ability. We expect children to read at least 5 times a week. Once your child has completed a book, they will need to complete a quiz on Accelerated Reader. We will monitor the amount of words your child has read as well as their understanding of the text frequently. Children will be given stickers once they have completed quizzes and keep these as record of their reading throughout the year. Pupils have the log in and the link is as follows:
Spelling
See below for an overview of the Y1 & 2 words as well as the Y3 & 4 word lists that we will be working on throughout the year. If you would like to work on any of these spellings at home we would greatly appreciate it. Your child will be sent home with words that they are focusing on each half term.
