Please note that Year 4’s PE will be Tuesday. Due to current COVID restrictions, we will be asking the children to wear their PE kits to school on that day. If he weather is inclement, then Sports trousers will be acceptable for the children to wear.
We are making a change to the way that we deal with reading books and collect reading records. We will be following the system that Year 3 are using. We will be issuing one reading book to your child on a Monday. We would like to collect the nook back in with the reading record on a Friday. This will allow us to decontaminate books over the weekend ready for re-issuing on a Monday. It will also allow us time to award stars that your child may have accrued during the week. This means that there is not quite so much pressure on the system as each child is not taking three or four books home at a time. It will also mean that your child will have more books to choose from. This does mean that your child wont have a reading book for the weekend. However, they will have homework to complete on Reading Eggs as well as access to the library on the Reading Eggs site.
The year 4 website will be updated with the spellings the children have learnt in school throughout the week, so they can continue to learn them at home. We will set spellings on a Friday and check the children’s learning on the following Friday. We will also be using Mathletics, Reading Eggs and Times Tables Rockstars as a virtual platform for the children’s home learning. This has now gone live, with details on the homelearning page.
We will be contacting you in the following weeks to inform you about this year’s residential trip to Okehampton. This is due to take place in the Summer term. We are awaiting date confirmation, as the Youth Hostel has yet to reopen fully after the COVID lockdown.
If you need to contact us, or have any questions, please email either p.nugent@sdps.plymouth.sch.uk or m.flooks@sdps.plymouth.sch.uk.
Many thanks,
Phil Nugent and Maisie Flooks
