Spellings

 

At the beginning of each half term the children are given a list of the spellings they will be learning each week. The children have two spelling lessons a week. The children are encouraged to try different ways and find what works best for them.

 

The children have their spelling test every Thursday.

 

Here are a range of ideas that children can use to practise their spellings at home:

 

 

Times tables

 

By the end of year 4, children are expected to know all of their times tables up to 12x12. We practise times tables as often as we can in school. The children are expected to practise their times tables each week at home as part of their homework. 

Here are some of the ways they could be practised at home:
