Miss Jeacott

Hello everyone and welcome to Year 4!
Year 4 Teachers: Miss Jeacott, Miss Connelly and Mr Galpin 
Year 4 Teaching Assistants: Mrs Cooper, Mrs Morris, Mrs Klein, Mrs Pryde and Mrs France. 

On this webpage you will find lots of information and updates you will need throughout your time in Year 4. Important dates to remember can be found by clicking this link
Classroom Routines
  • Water bottles - bring your water bottles (clearly named if possible) with you each day. These should contain water only and if you run out you can fill up in the classroom. If you can, try to use a reusable bottle. Your child may also bring in a healthy snack to have at break time. Please see the school website for details.
  • Uniform - Last term, we noticed that some pupils were forgetting to wear the correct uniform. We believe that uniform is important and expect pupils to arrive in the correct clothing. Please also ensure that you are wearing the correct PE kit which can also be outlined on the website.
BOYS UNIFORM
  • Black, navy or grey school trousers or shorts
  • Plain white or blue shirt, white or blue polo shirt or school polo shirt
  • Plain navy blue jumper, sweatshirt, cardigan or fleece
  • Black footwear.
GIRLS UNIFORM
  • Black, navy or grey school trousers, shorts or skirt
  • In warmer months, girls may wear a blue check summer dress
  • In colder months, girls may wear black, navy or grey tights
  • Plain white or blue shirt, white or blue polo shirt or school polo shirt
  • Plain navy blue jumper, sweatshirt, cardigan or fleece
  • Black footwear.
JEWELLERY
The children may only wear single stud earrings and a watch to school. This is for all of the children’s safety and also the security of any jewellery. No other jewellery is acceptable and your child will be asked to remove it. Jewellery MUST NOT be worn for P.E. or swimming. If you are struggling to find suitable clothing, please let a member of staff know and we can provide help including clean, second hand items from the Whitehouse Centre. 
  • PE - our PE lessons will be on Wednesday mornings this half-term. Please come to school in your PE kit including trainers, navy or black shorts or joggers, a plain white t-shirt and a plain navy jumper (if children are wearing inappropriate or colourful clothes, these fall outside of our school uniform policy and children will be asked to change). 
  • No football shirts - even if you have a sports club after school, football shirts are not allowed.
  • Homework - will be given out on a Friday and is due the following Thursday. Any children struggling to complete homework at home, should ask for help from a school adult by Wednesday.
  • Golden Time - will take place every Friday afternoon to celebrate the children's hard work and good behaviour - the children can bring one toy and we will sometimes have special activities for the children to take part in.
  • Allergies - there are several children with nut allergies so please avoid sending products with nuts into school.
  • Reading - We expect children to read at least 3 days in a week (out of 7 days) and to bring their planners every day for review. Children should record the name of the book and which pages they have read in their planners. We will give out champion points to regular readers! Their planners should be returned into school each day with them. As mentioned at our meeting, I have attached details of the subtitle campaign. Turning on the subtitles while children are watching television can double the chances of a child becoming good at reading. It’s so brilliantly simple and can help children’s literacy so much that we want to shout it from the rooftops! Linbk to website is above. 
  • Reading Eggs/Lexia  - to provide children with additional reading and writing support, some pupils will be have a log in for Reading Eggs/Lexia. They will be using these programmes in class but practising at home will give your child an even greater chance to thrive.
  • Logins - each child will be given a login to TT Rockstars and Purple Mash. These are all apps that you can access through most computers and laptops, as well as tablets. If you are missing or have misplaced a login, please let a school adult know.
  • Worries - If you or your child have any concerns, please communicate through their school planner or speak to one of the school adults at the end of the school day. We also have a feelings box at the front of the class for the children to put their worries, in case they feel uncomfortable speaking to a school adult.
