Year 4
Hello and welcome to the class page for Year 4!
We hope you enjoy navigating your way through the pages in our section of the website and discover all the fabulous learning, activities and fun that goes on in Year 4 at Glenmere.
On our class page, you can find our class newsletters, knowledge organisers, planning, helpful websites and many more things to support learning at home and explain what we do at school too.
The children will have PE on Wednesday mornings, so need to come to school in PE kit and then have tennis on a Thursday afternoon and PE on a Friday afternoon. Please could the children have their PE kits in school from a Monday to a Friday. The children will also have Active Maths and English throughout the week too.
We practice our times tables using Chromebooks every day. To practice at home, please could you use the website https://www.timestables.co.uk/
Children can also download and use the White Rose Maths App entitled 1-Minute Maths. It is a great and fun way of practising addition, subtraction, multiplication and division skills.
Enjoy!
