Year Profile...

Introduction

Welcome to Year 4 at Tipton Green Junior School. This year we have three classes of approximately 30 children each.

The Year 4 staff this year are Mrs Jones - 4KJ, Miss ward - 4NW and Mr Wilkes - 4DW.

In Year 4 we cover the three core subjects of Literacy, Numeracy, Science as well as ICT and Foundation subjects which are themed as far as possible.

We encourage children to complete regular pieces of homework as well as regular reading practice at home. By Year 4 they should be familiar with all the multiplication tables upto 10X10 as these form the basis for a lot of the work completed in numeracy.

Each class will do P.E. twice a week. It is important that they have appropriate kit in school for this. It is a legal requirement that all children take part in P.E. activities unless there is a medical reason preventing this. They should also be discouraged from any jewellery on days when they participate in P.E.

Each class will also go swimming at Tipton Baths during one term. Lookout for letters telling you when your child's class will be going. You can collect them from the baths at around 3:20 or we bring them back to school at around 3:30.
