Look at what we’re learning this year

Our RE Topic for Advent 1:

Ourselves 

Extra-Ordo-Nary

Each week we think about and reflect on the theme from the NDCYS Extra-Ordo-Nary.  We also look at the feast days and special liturgical days we will be celebrating that week.  All of the Extra-Ordo-Nary documents for this year can be found here.

Our Whole Class reading book this Half Term is ‘Who Let the Gods Out?’

Maths

At the end of Year 4, (around June) the children will have a multiplication tables check.

The multiplication tables check (MTC) is statutory for primary schools.

The purpose of the MTC is to determine whether pupils can recall their times tables fluently, which is essential for future success in mathematics. It will help schools to identify pupils who have not yet mastered their times tables, so that additional support can be provided.

Schools will have a 3-week check window in June to administer the MTC. Teachers will have the flexibility to administer the check to individual pupils, small groups or a whole class at the same time.

To help prepare for this, children should be practicing their times tables regularly on TimesTable Rockstars.
