Literacy
Here are the Year 3 and Year 4 spellings . Have a go at spelling a few at a time. You can always try the following to help practise learning these:
Hide and seek - cover the word and try and spell it
Rainbow writing - write the word once and then go over the joins using different colours, while saying the sound/word as you write it.
Write in sand/squirt water/draw on the patio with water and paint the word.
Create lists of similar words
Illustrate the words to represent the meaning.
Word snap
Reading
Here is the recommended Reading list for Year 4. Please use the list to find books to inspire you children to either read themselves or have read to them by you. Shared reading is fantastic where you can take it in turns to read or actually read at the same time. Enjoy!
Maths
By the end of Year 4 we need to know all our tables. We recommend that children are secure first with their 2,3,4 and 8 times tables. They need to learn them out of order and mixed up .Then they can start with their 9, 6 and 7 s. Here is a link to Hit the Button which is a website which is excellent for tables practice. https://www.topmarks.co.uk/apps/hit-the-button
