#### Welcome!   Mr Watkins will be your class teacher for the year and Miss Farrell will be your teaching assistant.  We know that Year 4 Starfish is going to be a busy year, full of fun, learning and developing independence.  You will have the opportunity to really develop your own learning style and confidence in everything that you do.

### Weekly Timetable

Our pupils in Year 4 are expected to be a little bit more responsible for their belongings and remembering homework etc., however, we all know that extra support from home is important to ensure that these things aren't forgotten so below is a timetable of what is needed everyday:

**Monday** - PE kit. Spellings / Times tables given out

**Tuesday** - N/A

**Wednesday** - PE kit

**Thursday** - Swimming at Middleton Arena.

**Friday** - Spellings and times tables due in

Every child needs to be reading at home as much as possible please (everyday if you can) and needs to bring their book into school everyday, so that an adult can hear them read in school too! Wherever possible, please help your child practise their weekly tables and spellings. Testing them at home will help cement their learning of the different spelling rules and multiplication facts!
