Welcome

to

Emerald Class

Our class is made up of Year 4 and Year 5 students, taught by Mr Northcott, along with Teaching Assistants Mrs. Robinson and Mrs Ali.

PE Days
- Wednesdays (swimming)
- Fridays (outdoor lesson - cricket)

Please ensure your child comes to school wearing their PE kit on Friday. All jewellery, including earrings, must be removed, and long hair should be tied back for PE lessons.

Spellings

Spellings will be given out on Monday to be learned for the end of the week. Children will learn these spellings in class, but practice at home is essential.

TTRockstars

This app help reinforce quick recall of multiplication, and division facts. This is particulary important for Year 4 pupils who will be sitting the multiplication tables check in June. Download the apps and use the login details stuck in your child's reading record.

Reading Books

Children have reading books matched to their ability level. Please ensure your child reads a few times per week at home and make a brief note in their reading record about their progress. Children are also encouraged to read their own books and reading materials at home which they find interesting and engaging.
