Welcome to Year 4

Homework for Year 4 is reading at least 3 times per week (ideally a little every night) and in addition, they may receive handwriting sheets to practise their letter formation and handwriting joins.  There will also be some maths activities set to help them with their learning in school and we encourage the children to practise their times tables by competing on Mathletics and Times Tables Rock Stars.

Reading: 

At Collingwood, we encourage children to read at least 3 times per week (ideally a little every night). We use a reading race incentive to encourage children to read at home. This involves children reading at home and once they reach 40 reads, they earn a golden coin that they can spend at our reading book vending machine. 

Teachers carefully pick every child's reading books depending on their reading level. Books will be changed at teachers' discretion once they feel the child is confident and ready to move on.
