Roddlesworth- Years 4, 5 & 6 2020 - 2021

Welcome to Roddlesworth class. 

We are a mixed age class of Year 4, 5 and 6 children. We aim to make learning engaging, challenging and supportive for all. The learning environment is well structured and prepares the older children for their transition on to secondary school. 

When children reach Roddlesworth class they are trusted with responsibility in school. This allows the children to mature, grow in confidence and self-esteem and become good role models for the younger children. 

We have an ethos of mutual respect between staff and children in class which promotes a happy, harmonious environment to work in. We believe that in order for this to happen, each and every member of our class must uphold our eight core values.

Class teacher: Miss Hannah Hull 

Learning Support Assistant: Miss. Catherine Mansfield

PE

PE takes place on a Monday and Wednesday. Please ensure your child comes to school wearing their PE kit on these days. 

Homework

Homework is sent out weekly on a Friday and consists of Maths, English and spellings. This homework can be found using Microsoft Teams and can be sent back during the week electronically. The homework sent home is to consol;odate the week's learning and to enable your child to move onto the net step or take on a challenge.  Weekly spelling tests will take place on a Friday. 

It is imperative that your child spends time reading during the week and we encourage you to discuss the books and vocabulary with them. Although many of our Year 4, 5 and 6 children are independent readers, it is still important for them to complete their reading records and have this signed by a parent/ guardian when the reading has taken place. 

How you can help at home

- Read with your child as often as possible and question them about tricky vocabulary and events in the story. 

- Support your child with their homework. 

- Play number games such as Times Table Rockstars or Numbots at home. 

- Engage in the subjects being taught in school at home to motivate and excite your child.
