Found below are the Reading Domain Questions to support you in asking your child questions whilst listening to them read every day. These will also be distributed at the Year 4 Curriculum Meeting on Tuesday 10th September 2024.

Home Learning

Every Friday children will receive their times tables and spelling homework to complete and return the following Thursday. 

Every week, children need to spend a minimum of 20 minutes on additional math and literacy learning. This is part of their weekly homework. 

You can use these programs to help with developing your child's mathematical and reading skills.
