TERM 4 – FEBRUARY 2021

Hello Year 4,

I hope you have had enjoyed a well-deserved rest and have recharged your batteries ready for the new term.

Please read the following reminders

• Remember to check in every day on our class Blog.  
• Click on the hyperlinks on the weekly timetable and watch pre-recorded videos before attempting the activities/worksheets.
• Upload your work into your individual file rather than the Class Blog.  This is much easier for me to monitor and allows individual feedback to be given. Every day you should upload a minimum of one piece of work (specified on the timetable).
• There are extra 2os set on Purple Mash daily.  You can do as many of these as you wish BUT the work set on the weekly timetable must be completed first.  
• There will be someone on the Class Blog throughout the day if you need any support or alternatively you can email enquiries@harlaxton.lincs.sch.uk

Have a fabulous week.

Miss Ironmonger

Leader in Me

On a daily basis, the children try to demonstrate our core values within school. As we aim to practise them so often, they become good habits that we can use not only in school but also at home too. 

• Habit 1: Be Proactive (You’re in Charge)
• Habit 2: Begin With the End in Mind (Have a Plan)
• Habit 3: Put First Things First (Work First, Then Play)
• Habit 4: Think Win-Win (Everyone Can Win)
• Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood(Listen Before You Talk)
• Habit 6: Synergise (Together Is Better)
• Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw (Balance Feels Best)

Growth Mindset

This year we will be helping the children to develop a Growth Mindset. This aims to increase their resilience, perseverance and independence in their learning. Further information can be found by following the link below.

Homework

Homework is given out on a Fridayto be returned by the following Thursday. It will consist of a piece of English or Maths work which will consolidate your learning from the week.

Spellings are in the back of your homework book and will be tested on every Thursday. A copy of this terms spellings is also on the school website. 

Keep practising your times tables. You need to be able to recall multiplication and division facts up to 12 x 12.

Children also have their own individual log ons which enable them to access TT Rock Stars, Purple Mash and Education City.  These websites all offer a wealth of games and activities to support the children's learning. 

Remember to read regularly and record this in your reading record. If you read at least 5 times every week and your record has been signed by an adult for each entry you will be awarded a house point. Reading records are checked every Monday.

My Style homework is also given out each term
