Miss Scott
Welcome to Year 4S
A very warm welcome to Year 4S.
We hope you enjoy looking at pictures of us working hard and learning. Follow this page to see our latest news and work.
Have a look at Year 4’s New Year’s Resolutions at the end of this page...
AT THE END OF THE YEAR, YEAR 4 WILL BE TESTED ON THEIR TIMETABLES KNOWLEDGE AND HAVE TO ANSWER A RANGE OF TIMESTABLE SUMS IN ANY GIVEN ORDER! Please ensure you help your child revise so they are prepared for their very important exam. They will only have 6 seconds to give an answer. Use this website to practise: https://mathsframe.co.uk/en/resources/resource/477/Multiplication-Tables-Check
Why not give me feedback in your child’s homework book so I know how they’re getting on.
