Science Homework
Children have been given a blank page which is to be used to create an information page/poster based on scientist Pierre Fauchaud. They will need to research this scientist and create an informative and eye-catching page full of information, with some pictures also if they wish. This work will be going in Science books, so needs to be quality work please.
Maths homework
-Encourage times tables practice as much as possible. By early June, children should be able to recall all times tables up to 12x12 with speed and accuracy. If you need any support with this, just let me know.
-TT rockstars (daily if possible) and use the website below for extra times tables practise.
This year, Year 4 will complete an official times tables check during the Summer term. Times tables are hugely important in our learning in Year 4 and beyond and they will need to know all times tables up to 12x12. This week (and every week after this), I would like children to spend time on TT rockstars to practice their quick recall and have a go at the following online check which replicates the conditions of the Summer term check :)

Reading
Daily home reading is incredibly valuable for our children and I strongly encourage helping your child move forwards with this. They can read aloud to you, their siblings, even their pets! If you can ask them questions to see what they have understood after they have read a page, this will be useful to gage their understanding. Please focus on book banded books and send these along with reading diaries into school on a daily basis :) Encourage children to read for pleasure also and find a variety of books that they are interested in.
As always, please do ask if you are unsure of anything at all.
