Times Tables - Please practise your times tables focusing on improving the efficiency of your answers. The aim is for all children in Year 4 to know up to 12x 12 by the end of Year 4. Suggested websites include Hit the Button and Daily 10 (both found on Top Marks) and Monster Multiplication and Multiplication (both found on Purple Mash) . We also recommend the apps 1 Minute Maths White Rose and DK Times Tables. We have weekly tests to identify times tables that can be improved with targeted intervention. Children should practise using whichever method works best for them. The suggested websites can be found on the Useful Links section of this website.
The children will complete the statutory multiplication tables test in the summer term. More information about this can be found in the document below.
Spelling - Please learn your spellings which are tested every three weeks in school. We will recommend a range of different activities to help with learning spellings but it is important that you find an activity that works for you.
Reading - Please read regularly, both aloud to an adult and to yourself. Please read a range of different styles of texts. Below is a recommeded reading list for Year 4 children. If you finish your school reading book read a book from home, or you could even listen to some extracts from recommended stories from the list above.
