Welcome to Year 4's Learning Page
Date: W/C Monday 25th January
Message
Welcome to week 4 of home learning! You are all doing so well and I am proud of your efforts! I hope that you managed to enjoy the weekend and maybe got out for a walk or a bike ride. Let’s pray that we all stay safe and that we'll be back together as a class soon. Below, you’ll find information about the subjects being taught in class this week. I will be doing group zoom calls again on Monday for home learners and class zooms on other days. Either myself or another adult in class will be ringing parents on Wednesday to check in on everyone! I will do my best to answer any of your queries via email and to support your child as much as I can.
Questions or completed work can be sent to your class email which will be checked daily:
Take care,
Mr Perry

Daily Reading
Please continue to support your child with their reading. You can teach them how to read unfamiliar words by sounding out; reading on and going back to it and, importantly, discussing the context of the story. If your child is a confident reader, please still discuss the book with them. You can talk about key events, characters’ feelings as well as authors’ choice of language and the impact on the reader.
Also, see the comprehension resources that are in your paper copy of home learning. If you come to school on any days, please bring your home learning book and home learning pack so I can check your books and listen to you all read.
