Weekly Homework

Children will have two pieces to complete, usually one piece of English set on Google Classroom and one piece of Mathematics that should be completed in their Maths Scrapbook. It is also important that children continue to regularly practise spellings and times tables. Homework will be set on a Friday and due in the following Friday.

Enrichment Activities

Enrichment tasks will be set every half term and encourage the children to work collaboratively, with someone from home, to create a piece of work to be proud of.  We like to let the children choose how they would like to present their work, this gives them the opportunity to be as creative as they would like. If you would like to use any art resources or if children need time in school to complete their task, please let us know. 

Google Apps

Pupils are encouraged to use Google Apps for homework and to share information.  Children can log in using their emoji passwords through Wonde. If you need any support with this, please contact school.

Accelerated Reader

To further encourage 'Reading for Pleasure' we are using 'Accelerated Reader'.  Children will need to read for 20 minutes at school, and 20 minutes at home each day and log their reading in their reading log books.  On completion of a book children will take a short quiz on a computer at school to check their understanding of the book.  Children are welcome to read their personal books from home - to check if there is an associated quiz please use the Accelerated Reader Book Find website here.

Spelling Frame

Spelling Frame is a free interactive website to practise and test spellings from the Key Stage 2 spelling curriculum.  http://spellingframe.co.uk/ 

The children will need to know how to read and spell all of their High Frequency Words by the end of Year 4. The Y3/4 curriculum spellings can be found here

Maths Frame

Maths Frame is a useful website with a variety of interactive maths games, printable worksheets and assessments.  https://mathsframe.co.uk/

The 'Multiplication Tables Check' is particularly useful for children in Year 4.

This activity exactly mirrors the 'Multiplication Tables Check' that will be given to children at the end of Year 4. They are tested on their multiplication tables up to 12 x 12. There are twenty-five questions and children have six seconds to answer each question with three seconds between questions. The questions are generated randomly using the same rules as the 'Multiplication Tables Check'
