Homework is provided each week through the Emilie app, with a focus on maths and spellings to support key learning. Your child has been sent a login home in their reading records. If you experience any issues logging in or accessing the homework, please speak to Mrs Hill for assistance.

Reading 

Reading for just 20 minutes a day at home can significantly boost a child’s vocabulary, comprehension, and confidence. When children read for pleasure, choosing books they enjoy, they’re more likely to develop a lifelong love of reading, which supports academic success and emotional wellbeing. Regular visits to the library are a great way to encourage this habit, giving children access to a wide range of books and helping them explore new interests in a fun, free, and welcoming environment. 

Spelling 

Each week, children will be sent home with 10 spellings to practise, all linked to a specific spelling rule being taught in class. To support learning, we encourage the "Read, Write, Cover, Check" method—children read the word, write it down, cover it, and then check to see if they spelled it correctly. This helps reinforce memory and accuracy. 

Talk Task 

Talk Task homework is designed to support your child’s “sticky knowledge”, the key facts and concepts they are learning in class that we want them to remember long-term. Each week, your child will be asked to talk through 3–4 facts they’ve been learning in school, helping them to reinforce understanding through discussion at home. This is an editor with sample data. Here, you can format text, insert links, and create organised lists to make your content stand out. Begin by exploring t

In English, we are focusing on discussion texts. Firstly, we are exploring the if we set still need zoos. Children will look at for and against arguments before writing their own discussion text.  

During our maths lessons, we are continuing with multiplication and division. This is essential for our year four children as it will deepen their knowledge in preparation for the multiplication check later this year.  

In Science, we will be learning about electricity. We will consider how circuits work and build our own. In addition, we will explore electric insulators and conductors.  

This term in Geography, we’re diving into the fascinating world of rainforests! We’ll be learning about where rainforests are found, what makes them so special, and why they’re important to our planet.
