This should include waterproof clothing, dark coloured jogging bottoms or leggings, suitable footwear such as wellies or walking boots and a plain, long-sleeved top. Please note that as part of Forest School it is likely that your child will get muddy so please bear this in mind when sending in clothes for your child to wear to Forest School.
- All children should wear uniform which should be clearly named.
- Please make sure your child brings their own water bottle to school each day.
- Please ensure your child brings a coat for outdoor play.

Here is the teaching timetable for Apple Class for this half term:
Maths
Over this half-term we will be working on our knowledge of Place Value.
Each day, children will revisit prior learning through Early Bird Maths questions in a morning and/or Flashback 4 within lessons.
The expectation by the end of Year 4 is that pupils know all their times tables up to 12.
Of course, we will practice these in school but they can also practice at home on TTRockstars, https://mathsframe.co.uk/ and https://www.topmarks.co.uk/maths- games/hit-the-button.
Spelling
This half-term, we will be revisiting spellings taught in Year 3 as well as introducing new spellings. On the ‘Mid Term Plan’ document you will find the spellings we aim to cover each week this half-term. There is also a document showing you all of the Year 3 and 4 spellings children should know by the end of Year 4.
