Year 4

Welcome to Badger Class!

I’m Miss Patel and I’m excited to be the teacher of Badgers Class. My favourite subject is Art as I love to be creative. This year we will be making all types of things including a spinning fairground ride.

In Badgers Class, we believe in being reflective learners. We think carefully about how we learn best and always look for ways to improve. We support each other and aim high in everything we do. A key focus this year is multiplication. By the end of Year 4, children are expected to know all their multiplication facts up to 12 × 12

In June, we’ll take part in the national Multiplication Tables Check, so we’ll be practising regularly to become confident and efficient mathematicians. We use retrieval practice to help embed knowledge into our long-term memory and encourage children to ‘dig deeper’ in their maths learning.

We also use knowledge organisers to help us learn and remember key facts across subjects. Our aim is to be engaged, challenged, and to have fun while learning!

We’re looking forward to some exciting trips this year, including visits to Amandir and Bosworth Battlefield, which will enrich our learning in RE and History.

PE Days: Please ensure children come to school in their PE kit on Wednesdays and Thursdays. For safety, no jewellery should be worn on these days.

We’re excited for a fantastic year of learning and growing together!
