Homework is usually sent on a Friday. This can be a physical copy or online on Purple Mash. it must be handed in on Wednesday.
All children in Year 4 have logins to 'Timetables Rock Stars'. We encourage our children to practice their times tables daily. The children have their own logins in their reading records.

Autumn 1
Deadly 60![]()
![]()
In this theme, we research the world’s weirdest and most deadly creatures, from the Tarantula Hawk Wasp to the Nile Crocodile. In English, we develop our writing beginning with creating fact files about some of the most obscure animals and working up to creating our own class fact files. We will also follow in the footsteps of Steve Backshall creating our own nature documentaries, showcasing what we have learned in this topic. In Geography, we will journey to five continents exploring the wide range of mammals, birds, reptiles, and insects that we would encounter there, researching the different environments and learning about how animals have adapted to live there. To compliment this, our science focus will be Living things and we will be planning on visiting the Birmingham botanical gardens to handle some weird and wonderful creatures.
Diary Dates: Tuesday 30th September 2025 - Botanical gardens trip 8:15 - 4:15
