Class 4 - Year 5 and 6

Class 4

Welcome to Class 4

Ms Jary and Mrs Dod teach Class 4. Please do not hesitate to come and see us after school if you have any questions or queries.

Topic

Over the course of the year, we will be studying the following topics:

  • World War II
  • North America
  • The Anglo Saxons and Vikings

Please see below the curriculum overviews for our Autumn Term topic: 

Reading

This term we will be reading:

Goodnight Mister Tom: Michelle Magorian (A Puffin Book) : Magorian,  Michelle: Amazon.co.uk: Books

Every child in Class 4 is asked to read every night. They will receive raffle tickets for every week they can show that they have read for five nights. The more raffle tickets they receive, the greater chance they have of winning the end-of-term prize. 

Reading allows us to access new, imaginary worlds as well as inform and educate us about the wondrous world we live in. Reading is vital, and so we would encourage every child in the class to read every day, both in school and at home.

Spelling

In school, we use the spelling scheme of syllables and sounds to help children to become competent spellers. When writing at home, please encourage your child to split the word into syllables and then focus on the sounds they can hear in each syllable. They can identify the tricky sounds that they hear and use their sound mat for support to choose the correct sound. Please encourage your child to access Doodle Spell for 15 minutes, 3 times a week as a minimum. 

PE

Our PE lessons will be on Wednesdays. Children are allowed to come to school in the correct PE uniform on Wednesdays.

Homework

Homework will be issued on Tuesdays and expected to be handed in by the following Monday. Homework will always be consolidation of the learning they have done in class throughout the week. If your child is struggling with the homework, please allow them to bring the task back in to school and we will help them.
