Year 4 - Doves | Larkrise Primary School

Welcome to Year 4 - Doves!

Welcome to Year 4!

Thanks for visiting the year 4 class page.

In year 4 we work hard and try our best. We cover three very interesting topics over the course of the year.

We give out homework on a Thursday (spellings and times tables practice) and collect it in on a Tuesday. Each term additional projects are offered for those children who would like to extend their learning. We test spellings on a Wednesday and record scores in reading records.

We expect children to read daily at home and have a large number of exciting books to choose from in our class book corner and through our reading scheme.

We do PE on a Tuesday and swimming on a Friday – but ask for PE kits to be in school all week just in case we change our day or need a change of clothes!
