Lion Class - Year 4/5
Teacher : Mrs Allen
Welcome to the Lion Class page!
Here you will see updates and information about some of our exciting learning this year.
Lion Class - Maths
The children are split into their own year groups and taught based on individual years.
We are working on children's fluency in Maths. Therefore, each child has a piece of fluency to complete at the start of every day.
Year 4 has their Statutory Multiplication check this year. Children can enjoy practising their timetables on https://www.timestables.co.uk/multiplication-tables-check/ or on https://talkingtimestables.uk/y4_ks2_mtc_practice_tests_multiplication_tables_check.php
Lion Class - English
In lion class we use the Write Stuff to teach English and help the children to develop their writing and communication skills.
We currently use Spelling shed to teach Spelling and Grammar. Children can also access this at home. https://www.spellingshed.com/en-us Each child has their own logging. This website allows children to practice each week's spellings in a fun and engaging way.
Lion Class - Homework
The expectation for each child is to practice their weekly spellings, timetables and read regularly.
Spellings are often printed and stuck into each child's reading record, or they can use EdShed to practice https://www.edshed.com/en-gb.
Times tables can also be practised on https://ttrockstars.com/
All children have their own access and logins to these websites. All login details are stuck into their reading records.
Useful information
PE is currently on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, so please remember to send the children in their school PE kits and remove earrings. Long hair is also expected to be tied back.
