Hello everyone,
I am struck by what an incredible class the current year 4 are. It has been an unusual week, with various staff absences but the children have worked hard and behaved impeccably. It is such a privilege to watch the class mature and develop in their final year of POW.
This week, the children have written some super stories, deepened their understanding of multiplication and learnt about Sikhism and emailing. At the end of the week, I was blown away but their acting as we continued rehearsals for A Midsummer Night's Dream. A big thank you and well done to those children (and their supporting families) that have started learning their lines. This makes a massive difference in rehearsals and allows the children to focus on their acting.
Home Learning for this week is for all children to learn their lines as well as learn their spellings and play times tables rockstars please. In the year 4 parent information session some parents asked for paper times tables booklets for children to use at home. If you would like a booklet please email me and I am happy to send one home with your child.
We have another busy and exciting week ahead next week. On Monday, the children will will have a Chinese New Year workshop (in preparation of Chinese New year on Tuesday).
Tuesday is the first day of February and again we will be running our popular Fitness February event. Just like last year, children and their families are invited to get more active and share the kilometers they have travelled on the Fitness February form. Again, classes will be comparing kilometers travelled and the collective distance travelled by the school and preschool will be plotted on a map with the aim of travelling further than last year.
Tuesday is a sporting dress up day where children are invited to dress up in their preferred sporting clothes to celebrate and launch a month of fitness and exercise.
Next week, the class will be rehearsing the play scenes in earnest with the hope that by Friday we can start whole class rehearsals. We are hoping to order T-shirts for the children so if you could let the children know what size T-shirt they are for Monday that would be helpful and appreciated.
As ever, if you have any questions please get in touch.
Kind regards,
Ms Browne & the Year 4 team. xx
