Times Tables

This year times tables are very important. At the end of the year the children will sit a times tables test. We are going to work really hard on our times table facts at school but we need your help at home. The children need to practice them regularly.

Year 4 children need to have completed three times tables practices each week. Practices may be on Times Table Rockstars or on a sheet of paper. Please sign in the back of their reading diary when your child has practiced their times tables.

For this term PE is on a Thursday morning. Please send your child with their PE kit in a labelled bag.

The children also have Forest School on a Tuesday afternoon this half term. Please send your child with outdoor clothing in a labelled bag.
