Hello from 4Green - Week 4

Literacy:

• Our weekly comprehension strategy is 'Main Idea' - Information Texts

• Children could practise this strategy at home while they are doing their nightly reading!

• Children are working hard at improving their writing with a focus on Information Texts.

• They are working hard on their handwriting (entries and exits) and pencil grips. It is great to see their hard work paying off.

• Please encourage your child to read each night. Please help them to strengthen their comprehension of the text by asking them meaningful questions.

Numeracy:

• Number patterns…counting forwards and backwards in 1's, 2’s, 5’s and 10’s up to 1000 (starting at any number) and 3's up to 30.

• Odd and even numbers

• Place value to the thousands and ten thousands

• Addition of whole numbers

• Fractions

Religion

• Value of the week: Service

• Vision Statement

Homework

• Homework has commenced. 

• It is an expectation that children hand their homework in on a Friday and that homework is completed neatly. New homework will be given out on Friday afternoon.

Other messages: 

• Year 4 class excursion to Ngutana Lui - Monday, 19th February

Please come and see me or email me if you have any questions throughout the year.

Kind regards,

Mrs T.
