Rabbit Class

Class teacher’s welcome

Welcome to our Autumn term in Rabbit class!

There will be so many exciting things to learn in our topics and I know we will all have a lovely time together. If there are any questions, hopefully most of these will be answered here on our class page, but if not, please feel free to email with any queries or concerns.

Reading

Please encourage your child to read daily for a minimum of 10 minutes. At least 3 reading sessions per week should be recorded in the school Reading Record. Children should all have a school reading book (that can be changed regularly) but should be encouraged to read other material as well.

Maths

Your child in Year 4 will be taking the statutory multiplication tables check (MTC), in June this year. It is an online test, completed in school, for all pupils in Year 4. Pupils are asked to answer 25 questions on times tables from two to 12. They are given six seconds per question, with three seconds rest between each question. To help prepare your child for this check, we recommend using Times Table Rock Stars (login on inside front cover of Reading Record) – Y4 introduces 6, 7, 9, 11 & 12, as well as building on 2, 3, 4 5, 8and 10 multiplication tables (from Y3 & Y2).

Moreover, written methods for addition, subtraction and multiplication are taught as in the pictures below.
