In History our theme is The World Wars.

Homework expectations
Children are expected to read daily and return their reading log to school each day.
It is expected that children log on to TT Rockstars for a minimum of 20 minutes per week. We will keep you informed of the TT Rockstars schedule for the Multiplication Times table Check as the year progresses.
Times Tables
All children in Year 4 must learn their multiplication tables. In July there is a National Multiplication Tables Check. All children in Year 4 are encouraged to learn all of their multiplication facts up to 12 x 12.
To enable this, we will be working our way up the times table ladder each week. You will receive a weekly PING to tell you of your child’s achievements and what to learn at home next. Times table books must be returned to school for our weekly test each week.
TTROCKSTARS: this is a brilliant program to encourage times tables practise. It is recommended to complete 21 minutes of GARAGE each week and complete 6 SOUNDCHECKS to develop multiplication fluency in the Summer Term.
All children have a login and are encouraged to use it as often as they can.
