Pupils

 Welcome to Class 9

(Year 4)

Welcome to the Class 9 webpage!

The class teacher is Mr McMurtry, with Learning Support Assistant Miss Peacock.

 

Important Information

 

Swimming

Swimming lessons start in the spring term at Alsop Swimming Pool.

We have P.E on Tuesday and Games Friday. Please ensure your child’s full P.E. kit is in school for those days. PE kits will be sent home at the end of each half term.

 

All children will require a water bottle. Please ensure this contains water only. Children will be able to refill their bottles in class.

 

In order to keep everyone safe, please stand behind the marked area at drop off and pick up times.  This will ensure all children and staff have space to enter and exit their marked area safely. 

 

Reading

                                                                     

It is very important that your child keeps up their reading at home. Children will still be expected to read at least four times a week.

Books and reading diaries are sent home every Monday and should be returned to school on Friday of the same week. Children will still be expected to read at least four times a week and this will be monitored by class teachers. Every time you read with your child, please sign and comment in their reading diary so that we can monitor and celebrate your efforts.

Children still requiring support in phonics will take part in daily phonics lessons following Little Wandle, please click the links below for more information

Reading Plus

Some children are currently accessing Reading Plus in school. If so, they will be able to log in at home. Children can access stories online, which helps develop their fluency, understanding and vocabulary. Children’s progress can be monitored by myself, therefore, it’s a great way for me to see how your child is progressing.

Your child can log in to Reading Plus here: https://student.readingplus.com/seereader/api/sec/login
