and helping the pupils to become more independent learners. Outlined below are

Our P.E days will be on Monday and Wednesday this
term. Please can you ensure that all pupils make every effort to wear their
kits into school for this essential area of child development.
Reading will take place both individually and as part
of group reading. Year 4 children are currently being assessed to gain a
greater understanding of their individual needs in this area. Any extra reading
is a huge benefit to your child - sharing a book daily will make a huge
difference in their understanding and enjoyment. Times tables are also an
important part of numerical development. Please support your child in learning
these, they will be tested and their progress monitored throughout the year!
Homework will be given out either on Thursday or
Friday, starting next week, to be returned by Wednesday unless stated.
Water bottles and a healthy snack may also be brought
in to school.
If you have any queries I am usually available in the
classroom after school. Thank you for your support and I look forward to a busy
and productive autumn term.
Yours faithfully,
Mr C Munday
