Our Creative Home Learning showcase will now be on Microsoft teams, rather than in class. Please complete the Creative Home Learning tasks at home as normal and upload a picture or document to your child's Class Teams account, in the section labelled 'Creative Home Learning'.

You can find your child's log-in in the 'Report Section' of MCAS. Refer to our 'How to' guides for more details
Your child is expected to follow the class timetable and complete daily English, (phonics) and maths lessons. As well as weekly lessons from our Fielding Learning Challenge Curriculum. Your child class teacher will make contact through the class notebook, and Microsoft Teams each day. This may be though written feedback or a video call. Your child's class teacher will arrange times for this.
English and Maths books will also be sent home on the week beginning:
Home learning
Top education researchers tell us that homework has minimal impact for primary age pupils, unless it requires children to rehearse and practise. Our routines to reflect this. The routines for children in this year group are as follows:
You will be able to see your child’s progress through class exercise books for English and maths being sent home at least once during every term as well as at parent consultation meetings.
Week beginning: 18th January 2021
The past tense of some words may sound as if it ends in /ld/, /d/ or /t/, however these endings are spelt -ed. If the verb ends in two consonant letters, then we just add 'ed'.
Example words that use this pattern:
hunted, buzzed, jumped, walked
Please discuss and practise this pattern at home.
Children will bring home their reading book, linked to the phonics or book band they have been assessed at. They also have the choice to select a recommended reading book or library book to share at home with you.
Once the children have read a book, it would be great if they could complete one of the activities of their choice outlined below.
1. Compare the book to another book you have read. What was similar? What was different? Think about characters/setting and events.
2. Draw a picture of your favourite character and write 5 words or phrases to describe their personality and 5 words/phrases to describe their appearance.
3. As you are reading, list any unfamiliar words and write their meaning.
4. If you could make one change to the story, what would it be and why?
5. Make a note of 3 of your favourite sentences and explain why you like them.
6. Complete a 'story S' which outlines the main events of the story.
5 books = Bronze Award
10 books = Silver Award
15 Books = Gold Award
All books = Platinum Award
TimesTables Rockstars is an online programme we have introduced to encourage children to have fun with multiplication facts while improving fluency, recall and speed. Children can access it in their own time on any IOS, Android or Windows device.
Times Tables Rock Stars is a carefully sequenced programme of times tables practice.
Incorrect answers are always immediately corrected in front of your child so that they start to associate the correct answer to every question. The clever code behind the scenes works out which times tables facts each child is consistently taking longer to answer and then it gradually starts to present these facts more frequently until they have mastered them. It will also ask related division questions 20% of the time in order to reinforce division facts.
Is this instead of the times table challenge completed in class?
No, this is to supplement the times tables challenge, giving children a fun way to practise and challenge themselves.
Where does this fit with National Curriculum expectations?
All pupils at the end of year 4 in England will take an online multiplication tables check. The national curriculum specifies that pupils at this stage should be able to recall the multiplication tables up to and including 12x12.
The check aims to support pupils to master multiplication skills, which are essential for future success in mathematics. It will help to identify pupils who have not yet mastered this mathematical concept, so additional support can be provided.
Children will be given details to log in (https://ttrockstars.com/login) once they have successfully completed all levels of the Number Bond Challenge.
Please see the sites below for other interactive games to help your children's fluency in recalling their multiplication and division tables.
English
In English this week, we will be learning about the author Ma Liang who wrote the story The Magic Paintbrush.
We will be using Oak Academy to guide our learning. We will be exploring the feelings of Ma Liang's and will learn about diary writing.
We will continue to focus on capital letters and full stops and will also focus on past tense -ed words, so make sure you practise your spellings patterns :)
You will have the opportunity to share your learning with a Year 1 teacher by the end of the week.
Maths
In Maths this week, we will begin exploring money. We will be identifying a range of British coins and notes, so make sure you have some with you!
You will use your knowledge of counting in 2's, 5's and 10's to count and compare different amounts of money.
You will have the opportunity to share your learning with a Year 1 teacher by the end of the week.
Every Thursday children will be given a Number Bond Challenge to complete within two minutes. They will begin with Number Bonds to 5. If children complete the challenge successfully, they will move to the next challenge the following week.
