Welcome to Adventurers 9!  We are going to have the most amazing year and I can’t wait to see you all.

Reading is extremely important and fantastic fun. We ask that you aim to read with your child at least 3 times per week (and sign their reading diaries). As part of our new reading initiative this year, children who have read to an adult 3 times in a week will receive a sticker or stamp on their own personal reading bookmark. Once they fill their bookmark, they will receive a special reward!
 I can’t wait to hear all about the amazing books you read.
Homework in Year 4 consists of daily reading and weekly spellings. Spellings will be given out once per week and tested on a Friday morning. Year 4 will also be given an optional Times Table worksheet to complete and will be rewarded with Dojo points. Year 4 have the Times Table check at the end of the year, so it is important that they are practicing at home. The children can also use Spelling shed, TTRS and Maths shed at home.

This year we will be using Class Dojo school-wide as a means of maintaining parent communication and as our whole-school rewards system. I will be posting regular updates to our Class Story throughout the year as well as reminders for parents and pupils.
If you need an invite to join our classroom as a Parent/Guardian please let me know.
See you all in school!
