Welcome to 4M

4M is taught by Miss Maxwell.  Ms Davis, our HLTA will be teaching the class on a Friday morning.

Please use our class page to find out about what we are learning and doing during the year.

Summer Term 2018

We will be continuing with our 'Naughty Neighbours' topic, before learning more about the local area of Macclesfield.

In Maths we will be continuing our fractions topic before moving onto decimals, measures and time. We will be participating in a times tables trial, exploring the best way to support the learning of times tables.

In English we will be studying and retelling traditional stories. Your child will continue to use Lexia at home and as part of their homework.

We would welcome any parent helpers, especially those who can spare time to come and listen to readers or help us with our times tables. Please contact Miss Maxwell to arrange coming in. Any amount of time you can spare is extremely helpful.

Homework

We encourage children to read as often as possible at home and for you to read to them. Please let us know how they doing through making a note in their homework diary.

Homework will be given out every Friday and is to come in by the following Wednesday.

As children are required to know their multiplication tables up to 12x12 by the end of Year 4, a key area of focus is to develop our multiplication tables knowledge. Strong multiplication tables knowledge is crucial in many areas of maths and children should be able to recall these quickly and confidently. On top of your child's weekly mathematics homework, children should spend some time each week practising their times tables. Please enjoy exploring the times table activities below:
