Important information

Reading

Your child will be given a new reading record at the start of the academic year. This, with their reading book, needs to be brought into school every day. Please ensure that you are listening to your child read as often as possible. Each time you listen to your child read, please sign their reading record. Children are able to change their home reading books at any point throughout the week as long as it has been handed in, and it has been signed by a parent or guardian. Books cannot be changed unless the reading record is signed by a parent / guardian.

Homework 

The children will be set homework on a Friday which is to be handed in by the following Wednesday. All children will be given paper copies of homework and will be provided with a folder to keep them in. Please make sure that your child returns their homework in the folder so that the next week's homework can be placed inside to take home. 

If your child completes their homework and changes their reading book, at least once, per week, they will earn an extra break time on a Friday!

Spellings

The children will be given weekly spellings to practise at home. It is important that your child is practising them as often as possible. Children will be given a spelling book that they can write their spellings down in to practice. 

Spellings will be set on a Friday and the children will be tested on the following Friday. 

PE

Our PE days in 4M are on Wednesday afternoons and alternate Tuesday mornings. Please ensure that your child has the correct PE kit in school including suitable footwear so that they can participate in the lessons safely. If your child has their ears pierced, please ensure that they do not come to school with earrings in on the day that they have PE.

Outdoor Education

Your child will have outdoor education every two weeks on a Tuesday morning, beginning 3rd September. Please ensure that your child comes to school suitably dressed in clothes that can get dirty and are suitable for the weather conditions. Even in wet / cold weather, the children will still be doing activities outside so will need warm, waterproof clothing as and when required. Children can bring wellies into school when they have outdoor education. Please also make sure that they bring another pair of shoes with them, i.e. trainers, that they can change into after their outdoor education lesson.
