Welcome to the Hedgehogs' Class Page!
Welcome to the Hedgehogs' class page. This half term we are heading to the coast!
UK Coasts
Would you rather live on an island or in a city and why?
In Y3/4 Hedgehogs, that is what we plan to find out this half term as we head to the coast to look at the human and physical features of the Isle of Mull and Plymouth. We will use these similarities and differences to discuss and debate where we would rather live and why.
We will be trying to answer this question through our Geography lessons.
Please see downloads below to download this term's topic map and knowledge organiser.
English: This half term, we will be learning the 'place value' of punctuation and grammar. We will explore noun, verbs and simple and compound sentences.
Maths: In maths, we will be learning about place value.
Year 3/4 Staff:
We are very lucky to have our amazing staff team in Y3/4 to support the children and help them grow:
Mrs Fields: Class teacher (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday)
Mrs Agnew: Class teacher (Thursday)
Miss Ollerton: Teaching assistant (Monday - Friday)
Information:
P.E Sessions:
For the Autumn term, we ask that children can please come to school in their P.E. kits on P.E. days, which are on Mondays and Tuesday.
Homework Explained
Class Dojo homework:
This can be found on the homework tab at the top of this page. While this is not compulsary, it's a great way to learn more about our topic and earn Dojo Points to convert in our shop at the end of term. We will also be having an afternoon to celebrate all the children have achieved.
Weekly Spellings:
Your child will be receving their spellings weekly. Spellings will be given out on a Friday and will be tested the following Friday.
Maths Homework:
The children in Y3/4 class are expected to be regularly logging onto MyMaths and completing activities that have been set. These will be linked to what we are learning in class.
Times Tables:
Your child will be given a login for Times Tables Rock stars, an exciting online tool to help them to learn times tables. Your child will have a weekly times tables test on a Friday and we thank you in advance for your support in helping them to prepare for this.
Reading:
Your child has a school reading book which is either a colour banded book or a free reading book. They also have an individual reading journal. Please can we encourage as much reading at home as possible and a comment written from you when you can. Thank you.
