Class 4
Welcome to Class 4!
Hello and welcome to Class 4!
My name is Miss Alderson and I am the class teacher. Mr Blundell and Miss Naz are our learning support assistants.
Blackburn with Darwen Wider Opportunities Music Service
Class 4 is very fortunate to have lessons provided by the Blackburn with Darwen wider opportunities Music Service. Each term, we learn to play a musical instrument and hold an end of term performance to show everyone what we have learnt! During the autumn term, we will be learning to play the ukuleles.
P.E.
P.E. lessons are on Thursdays and Fridays. Your child will need a full PE kit (white t-shirt, blue shorts and black pumps). Please make sure this is in school for all of the half term.
Home reading
Please bring these in everyday with the reading record signed. We want to make reading enjoyable and involve your child in this experience.
Homework
Spellings will be given out each Monday to be tested the following Monday. Please practice these. Times tables homework will be given out on a Wednesday. This is to be handed in the following Monday.
By the end of Year 4 children are expected to know all their times tables up to 12 x 12. It would be great if they could practice them at home! Please encourage your child to have a look at the times tables section and try out the games and activities on there.
If you have any questions regarding the curriculum your child is being taught, please contact school.
At Our Lady's we are always pleased to meet our parents. I will be available to talk to you any day before 8.45 and after school. If you would like me to ring you, please leave a message at the school office.
